Business Services Manager

Y Northern Territory | Corporate Services | full-time | Fixed-term maternity leave contract until 2 July 2027 |

Behind every great organisation is someone quietly making the magic happen. The cars are running, the laptops are set up, the bills are paid, the policies are fresh and the office isn’t out of coffee pods. One of our team is heading off on parental leave, and we need a legend to step in and keep things running. Could that be you?

Who we are

We’re the Y Northern Territory, and we’re on a mission to build a better world, with and for young people. We run Early Learning Centres, Outside School Hours Care, rec centres, pools, Youth Programs, Remote Pools and the Hostel. We show up for Territorians every single day. Big mission. Real impact. Zero fluff.

The role

You’re the person who makes the whole place run smoothly behind the scenes. Facilities, fleet, IT gear, insurance, policies, records, side quests (special projects) — it all flows through you. You’re also the go-to contact for head office. Basically, you keep the lights on, the cars running and the laptops working, and you do it with a customer-first mindset.

To absolutely crush it here, you’ll need to juggle deadlines like a pro, keep a cool head when things get messy, and bring people along for the ride by getting their input.

Business support: the first friendly face for enquiries, purchase orders, office ops and travel bookings

Fleet: rego,servicing, fuel cards and keeping the wheels turning

Facilities: capital works, maintenance, contractors and leases

IT & cyber: asset registers, new-starter setups and phishing sims (gotcha! 🎣)

Insurance: renewals and claims, handled like a pro

Budgets & procurement: tracking spend, managing suppliers and finding savings

Policies: keeping the rulebook current and looking sharp

What you bring to the table

• Experience in office management, procurement, and asset and property management.

• Solid tech skills, including Outlook, Excel and Word.
