Who We Are

At Contour, we’re reshaping education, one student at a time.

Born from the frustration of students who knew the system could be better, we set out to build what we once wished existed: tutoring that actually works. Not generic classes. Not recycled notes. Not overpriced, overcrowded rooms with an out-of-touch teacher who couldn’t relate. But a complete ecosystem of tutoring, resources, and support, meticulously designed to help every student reach their full potential.

Since 2020, over 15,000+ students have trusted Contour to guide their academic journey, and we’ve grown to over 500+ team members. We’ve produced hundreds of 99+ ATARs, tutored the World-Record UCAT scorer, and placed more students into medical school than any school in Australia.

Our growth is a testament to the simple philosophy: Put the student first, always. Everything we design, from our world-class tutor-training programs to our purpose-built campuses, exists to help students master content faster, perform with confidence, and even rekindle the joy of learning.

Contour is a group of three brands united by one goal: to give every student the best chance to achieve their full potential:

  • Contour Education: Reshaping how students master their high school subjects with small-group tutoring, structured resources, and 1-on-1 support across Maths, Science, and English.
  • Contour Medprep: Reshaping medical preparation with a proven, step-by-step pathway through the UCAT, interviews, and admissions, led by a team of 100+ medical students.
  • Contour TestPrep: Reshaping test preparation, starting with the selective entry exam, through rigorous tutoring, mock exams, and data-driven feedback to give students a decisive advantage.

This is Contour. Built by students, for students.


What You'll Do

You'll carry the hardest cases yourself and raise the standard of the support experience.

  • Handle the escalations: Take the calls other reps can't resolve, including the second and third contact from a frustrated family, and close them out yourself.
  • Answer and resolve: Cover live calls, email and messages, and resolve transactional requests on the spot. Where you can't, set a dated callback and follow it through.
  • Route and own: Triage cleanly, raise linked requests for other teams with the context they need, and track every open item through to closure.
  • Improve the system: Spot gaps in process or scripting, and put forward fixes rather than just working around them.
  • Keep the record: Log every interaction to the family record, and help families self-serve where it genuinely helps them.

What You'll Bring

  • Proven experience in a customer-facing, service or contact-centre role, including handling escalations or complex cases.
  • Fast, organised and reliable, with pride in nothing being dropped.
  • Warm, clear and confident phone manner, even when the caller isn't.
  • Strong written communication across email and messaging.
  • Composure under pressure, and the judgement to know what to escalate versus resolve yourself.
  • Comfortable with HubSpot and AI tools.
  • Understanding of Australian school systems across states and year levels (VCE, HSC, QCE), or a fast learner who can pick it up.
  • Flexibility to work shifts across a 9am to 9pm window, including some evening and weekend availability, since that's when families are most reachable.
  • Melbourne-based across our Glen Waverley and CBD campuses, with a hybrid working setup.
Why You'll Love It
  • Own the hard cases and see your fixes actually change how the team runs.
  • Build real, lasting relationships with the families you support, not one-off transactions.
  • Directly shape retention and student outcomes at a fast-growing company.
  • Clear path for career development as Contour scales.
  • Competitive salary plus hybrid flexibility, extra leave, EAP access, and lifestyle perks.
