Join a Growing School with a Bold Vision
Central Coast Steiner School is seeking an experienced and community-minded ICT and Digital Transformation Coordinator to help lead the next stage of the School’s digital evolution.
This newly established position combines technology operations, digital transformation, staff capability development, governance, project coordination and continuous improvement. Working closely with School Leadership and our Managed Service Provider (MSP), you will play a key role in helping the School deliver a secure, reliable and future-ready technology environment that supports teaching, learning and administration.
This is not a traditional ICT support role.
While user support forms an important part of the position, the primary purpose of the role is to strengthen the School’s digital capability, improve systems and processes, support technology adoption, coordinate technology initiatives and help staff confidently embrace modern digital ways of working.
The successful applicant will become an important contributor to the School’s ongoing growth and development as Central Coast Steiner School continues to expand its facilities, programmes and services, including its unique International Baccalaureate pathway.
About Central Coast Steiner School
Nestled within a beautiful natural bushland setting at Fountaindale on the NSW Central Coast, Central Coast Steiner School provides a distinctive educational journey from Early Childhood through to Year 12.
Grounded in the principles of Steiner Education and enriched by the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, the School seeks to educate young people who are thoughtful, capable, creative and prepared to contribute positively to the world.
As one of the fastest-growing independent schools on the Central Coast and the region’s only International Baccalaureate school, we are investing in our facilities, people and systems to support an exciting future.
About the Role
The School has recently commenced a significant technology modernisation programme, including improvements to infrastructure, cyber security, cloud services, governance and digital workflows. The successful candidate will help consolidate these foundations while leading the next phase of technology adoption, operational maturity and organisational capability development.
Reporting to the Business Manager and working closely with School Leadership and external technology partners, the ICT and Digital Transformation Coordinator will act as the School’s internal technology champion and coordinator.
The role serves as the bridge between staff, leadership, vendors and technical specialists, helping ensure that technology investments translate into meaningful outcomes for the School community.
Success in the role will be measured not only by reliable technology operations, but also by improvements in staff capability, cyber security awareness, workflow efficiency, documentation quality and successful technology adoption across the School.

Assist with user account administration, device management and technology provisioning

Promote strong cyber security awareness and safe digital practices across the School
Support implementation of cyber security initiatives in partnership with external specialists and the MSP
