Why choose to kick-start a career in Project Support & Business Analysis?

As a Project Support Officer, you will play a pivotal role, supporting the project manager and the wider team to ensure that the project is a success. This is a very busy and varied role and your duties may include project planning, risk assessments, preparing progress reports, monitoring project schedules and budgets and liaising with key stakeholders. All projects are different and therefore the tasks of a PSO will vary so you must be resilient and adaptable to meet challenging demands. You will also train to work as a Business Analyst. A Business Analyst balances technical skills, business knowledge, troubleshooting expertise, and possesses excellent soft skills.

This program is a great fit for those who are avid problem solvers and who enjoy working in fast-paced, dynamic environments. Business Analysts must be great communicators to meet both the technical and interpersonal needs of the role. Successful candidates will receive technical and professional training through our award-winning FDM Academy. You become an FDM employee from day one and are paid during the training period before placement onsite with our clients in Australia.

Fast-track career progression is a key focus of FDM, and our program will put you on a pathway that could grow into leadership roles working within multinational organisations.
