About Megaport
We’re not your typical tech company – and we don’t want to be. Megaport is the global leader in Network as a Service (NaaS), and has transformed the way businesses connect to the cloud, data centers, and each other. We’re publicly listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and partnered with the biggest names in tech like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, IBM, and more. Headquartered in Brisbane with a crew of over 600 people spread across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, our employees enjoy an environment that is collaborative, supportive, and (actually) fun.
 
Our Team Culture
We’re a team of problem solvers, pixel pushers, code slingers, and cloud fanatics. Culture is more than a poster on the wall here – collaboration beats hierarchy, curiosity fuels our growth, and everyone’s voice matters. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We work across time zones to execute on our global vision, trust each other to get things done, and never compromise our values for commercial gain. Most importantly, we place our customers at the center of everything we do.
 
We’re committed to increasing representation in the tech industry and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Don’t meet every requirement? That’s okay. If you’re excited about this role, we encourage you to apply.

The Role

As Executive Team Assistant, you'll be a trusted partner to the CFO and our senior Executive Leadership Team, helping create the time, focus and structure needed for them to operate effectively. With a focus on our Australia-based executive team, you’ll manage complex schedules, coordinate travel and events, support executive priorities, and act as a key point of contact for stakeholders across the business.

This role requires exceptional organisation, sound judgement, and the ability to anticipate needs before they arise. You'll be trusted with highly confidential information and play an important role in keeping our leadership team connected, informed, and operating efficiently.

This is a role for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment, enjoys solving problems before they become problems, and can confidently manage competing priorities across multiple time zones. You'll work closely with senior leaders across the business (with a focus on supporting executives based in our Brisbane HQ) and gain unique exposure to the inner workings of a global technology company.

Success in this role requires sound judgement, exceptional organisation, and a high level of discretion when handling confidential and sensitive information. You'll be adaptable, proactive, and comfortable navigating changing priorities while keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes.

  • Generous leave plans – including, parental leave, birthday leave, and a purchased annual leave program
  • Health and wellness support – through a wellness allowance and employee wellbeing initiatives
