Summary

We are seeking a detail-oriented researcher to compile a high-quality contact list of schools across New South Wales. This list will be used for wellbeing/PDHPE outreach for a children's book brand.

Output format:
Excel or Google Sheet, neatly organised and cleanly formatted.

Requirements:
– Strong research skills
– Ability to find verified contact info from public sources
– Accuracy and attention to detail
– Experience with education or lead-generation research preferred

To apply, please include:
