Details: Do you want to join a dynamic team of communications specialists who play a vital role in promoting Canberra as a great place to live, work, study, visit and do business?

The Economic Development Division is looking for a Social Media and Content Officer to play an important role in creating and implementing social media campaigns that promote Canberra at a local and national level.

This role will give you endless opportunities to put your creativity, content writing and organisational skills to work as you contribute to the overall priorities of the Economic Development division, with a focus on providing social media support to the Events ACT team.

Events ACT is responsible for coordinating, managing and delivering a range of events that are important to the city and community, including Floriade and the Enlighten Festival.

You will also work with other people in the Communications and Engagement Branch to develop, publish and improve content across other channels managed by Economic Development in collaboration with key stakeholders.

The successful candidate will be passionate about Canberra and its events offering and demonstrate a strong ability to develop messaging and engaging content that appeals to our audiences.

While this is a fast-paced role you will be supported to thrive and grow your skills as a marketing professional. Our ideal candidate will be passionate about collaboration and feel strongly about building on the supportive high performing culture we have developed here.

The ACT Public Service supports workforce diversity and is committed to creating an inclusive workplace.
