At Virgin Australia, we’re on a mission to be Australia’s most loved airline, for our people, our guests and our owners and we’re looking for passionate talent to help take us even higher. 

We’re vibrant, authentic and unapologetically human. Here, you can bring your whole self, your Virgin Flair and your ambition to a team that champions individuality, innovation and a whole lot of heart. If you’re excited by meaningful work, real opportunities to grow, and a culture where you can genuinely make a difference, you’ll feel right at home with us 

What you’ll be doing/your impact:

As Business Enablement Coordinator, you’ll help our Customer Operations Contact Centres stay ready to support our guests and members during disruption or an emergency event. Working with operational leaders, internal teams and offshore partners, you’ll coordinate continuity and response plans, exercises and follow-up actions that help protect service delivery.

You’ll also keep the Business Enablement initiative pipeline, governance and reporting running smoothly, supporting the delivery of Customer Operations priorities and giving teams clear visibility of actions, dependencies and progress.

• Maintain emergency response and business continuity plans for our Customer Operations Contact Centres, including offshore operations, keeping triggers, responsibilities, contact lists and communication templates current.
• Coordinate exercises and tests with relevant teams, from desktop walkthroughs and scenario simulations to system failover and call-tree checks. Capture lessons, track actions and feed improvements into plans and training.
• Support live emergency response under agreed response arrangements, coordinating activation and stand-down, action and decision logs, surge support and inputs to customer communications.
• Coordinate business impact analyses and disruption risk assessments, documenting critical services, dependencies, recovery objectives and continuity arrangements.
• Maintain the Business Enablement initiative pipeline and coordinate governance forums, papers, action tracking and reporting, helping teams track milestones and dependencies against Customer Operations priorities.
• Coordinate team meetings, planning sessions, offshore connections, onboarding and logistics. Support purchase orders, invoices, budget tracking and document libraries.
• Build effective working relationships with internal customers, including Safety, Risk and Resilience, Security, Technology, Workforce Planning and operational leaders, as well as offshore partners.

You’ll be great in this role if you:

• Bring experience in coordination, business continuity, emergency management, risk or project management office support, with a track record of keeping plans, contact lists, trackers and document repositories accurate.
• Have strong planning and organisation skills, attention to detail and document control, with the ability to coordinate meetings, exercises and events and follow actions through to completion.
• Communicate clearly and calmly under pressure, confidently facilitate workshops and exercises, and build trusted relationships with internal customers and delivery partners.
• Have strong Microsoft 365 skills, particularly Excel, PowerPoint, Teams and SharePoint, with an understanding of governance, basic budgeting and procurement.
• Understand Australian business continuity and risk practices, emergency response planning and contact centre operations, including the workforce, telephony and channel options used during disruption.
• Bring relevant training or qualifications in business continuity, emergency management, AIIMS, risk management, business or project management; these will be well regarded.
