Job Description

Reporting to the Operations Project Manager, you will play a key part in supporting the coordination and delivery of operational projects across our park network. Bringing strong Newbook expertise to the table, this is a great opportunity to step into a project-focused coordination role, gaining exposure to operational initiatives across a large and diverse portfolio.

You’ll be part of a collaborative team, working closely with park operations to deliver practical, on-the-ground improvements.  This is not a project management role, but rather suited to someone who enjoys being hands-on, detail-focused and involved in coordinating projects from concept through to rollout.

What you will do:

  • Supporting the coordination and delivery of Newbook focused operational projects for the Parks & Resorts network
  • Assisting with project activities from planning through to implementation and post-rollout support 
  • Working closely with park teams to support system usage, including Newbook queries and troubleshooting 
  • Developing and maintaining operational documentation and process guides 
  • Assisting with training and communication to support rollout of any new processes and initiatives 
  • Providing general operational and administrative support to the Operations team as required

What you will bring:

  • Hands-on experience using Newbook (Essential)
  • Experience in an operations coordination, project support, or admin-based role 
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities
  • High attention to detail and a proactive, solutions-focused mindset
  • A clear and confident communicator who takes direction well and works independently
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, operational environment with varied stakeholders
  • Intermediate skills in Microsoft Excel and reporting
