A reminder that the 2026 Administrative Professionals Salary Survey closes tomorrow (Thursday 11 June), and if you haven’t completed it yet, I really encourage you to make the time 🙏🏼

This report plays such an important role in building greater transparency around salaries, responsibilities, career progression and the evolving scope of admin roles, particularly here in Australia.

It’s anonymous, takes just 5 minutes, and the final report will be free for the admin community to access.

I know surveys can feel easy to skip, but this one genuinely matters. The more administrative professionals who contribute, the stronger the data becomes for all of us.

What a fantastic way to spend Friday and Saturday as a guest of the experiencing an exceptional famil hosted by Dreamworld, SkyPoint and The Star Gold Coast.

From the moment we arrived at , it was clear this was going to be something special. We began with Sky Voyager before touring the park’s diverse event and function spaces, followed by lunch at Jane’s Rivertown Restaurant and a visit to the lions, koalas, dingoes and crocodiles. Who knew Dreamworld offered so much more than rides?

We then headed to for a tour of the impressive Event Centre before making our way to , where sunset drinks and canapés overlooking the Gold Coast set the scene for an incredible evening. The day concluded with a beautifully curated three-course dinner, paired with exceptional wines, in the private dining room at 🥂

The thoughtful gifts and handwritten notes waiting in our rooms were a lovely touch and reflected the care that had gone into every detail of the experience.

The following morning, we enjoyed an incredible breakfast in the Penthouse of The Darling and were privileged to hear from the Interim CEO, who shared her career journey and insights into the hospitality industry, an inspiring way to conclude two unforgettable days.

As someone who books venues and experiences professionally, it was invaluable to experience firsthand the calibre of hospitality, venues and event offerings available on the Gold Coast.

🙏🏼 A huge thank you to Nyla, Renee, Lee, Andy and Bryson for their incredible planning and hospitality. Every detail was thoughtfully considered and deeply appreciated.

I left feeling inspired by the quality of the experiences, the attention to detail and the passion of the teams behind them. I can’t wait for the opportunity to bring a future event to life across these remarkable venues 🤩

The 2026 Administrative Professionals Salary Survey is now live, and from an Australian admin perspective, I cannot stress enough how important it is that we participate in initiatives like this 🙌🏼

For too long, our profession has lacked clear, credible data around salaries, titles, responsibilities and how our roles are evolving, particularly with the impact of AI now changing the workplace in real time.

This survey helps create a more accurate picture of what administrative professionals are actually doing, being paid and expected to deliver across Australia and globally. It is also the only independent salary report dedicated to administrative professionals.

The survey is completely anonymous, takes just 5 minutes to complete, and the final report will be free to download for the admin community.

Most importantly? Without participation, there is no report. The more administrative professionals who contribute, the stronger and more valuable the data becomes for all of us.

If you work in admin, executive support or business support, I strongly encourage you to take part and share it with your networks. The insights gathered genuinely matter for the future of the profession 💙

Are you under the impression that in order to level up in your career you must first move on?? This episode may just challenge that thinking, in the best way possible. 

On our latest episode of The Admin Avenues Podcast, we had the pleasure and privilege of chatting with Sharmayne Riseley, the Executive Assistant and support for the General Manager and Executives of the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre.

Sharmayne’s 28-year career is proof that success in admin isn’t defined by how often you move on, but by how you continue to grow.

During the episode, we explore:
·  How to keep evolving within the same organisation
· What actually drives long-term fulfilment
· Why admin is a career worth committing to
· The impact of being part of a professional community like

If you’re thinking about your next move, your growth, or what longevity could look like for you, this is for you.

It sounds simple really, but we really mean it when we say a thank you goes further than you think.

In a profession built on relationships, influence, and countless behind‑the‑scenes moments, one gesture makes more impact than most people realise: a genuine thank you.

Not the quick “thanks!” The real kind. The kind that acknowledges effort, reinforces trust and stays with people long after the moment has passed.

In this blog, I share the stories that shaped my career: the handwritten notes that opened doors, the small gestures that built global relationships, and the simple acts of appreciation that made the hardest jobs easier.

Because in a favour‑based profession, gratitude isn’t just polite,  it’s currency. It builds reputations, strengthens networks and quietly influences who people say yes to next.

If you want to deepen your connections, stand out for the right reasons and strengthen your professional brand, this is the article you’ll want to read.

Trust us, this is an article you’re going to want to read 🖋

Today is or National Healing Day 🖤💛❤️
 
This is a day to remember and acknowledge the mistreatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who were forcibly removed from their families and communities, which we now know as ‘The Stolen Generations’.

Sorry Day asks us to acknowledge the Stolen Generations, and in doing so, reminds us that historical injustice is still an ongoing source of intergenerational trauma for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

We acknowledge the strength of Stolen Generations survivors and reflect on how we can all play a part in the healing process for our people and our nation. 🖤💛❤️
