Working at CQUniversity

Join CQUniversity’s School of Nursing, Midwifery and Social Sciences, where we are committed to providing high-quality, hands-on learning experiences. In this administrative role, referred to internally as a Technical Simulation Officer, you will play a key part in creating immersive training environments that equip students with the skills needed for real-world clinical practice.

In this non-teaching position, you will support the academic team by coordinating clinical simulation activities, ensuring equipment is set up and operating to industry standards.

We are seeking a proactive, detail-oriented professional with a strong problem-solving mindset to join our team. Join a university that values technical excellence and hands-on learning, where your expertise will directly support students in developing the skills they need for their future careers.
