Are you a creative digital storyteller who knows how to cut through the noise?
We’re looking for a casual Digi Comms Officer to help bring important government initiatives and local community stories to life.
You’ll join our small and mighty Northcote Electorate Office team, working closely with us to create engaging and accessible communications for our inner north community.
This is a hands-on content role for someone who can film, edit, write and publish content online. You’ll help translate government policy and local issues into messages that people can easily understand, connect with and act on.
Create engaging content across social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, etc.)
Film and edit short-form videos (Reels, explainers, community updates)
Capture high-quality photos at community events and in the electorate
Write clear, concise and accessible captions and copy
Monitor trends and suggest creative ways to improve reach and engagement
You’re creative, organised and understand how to communicate with purpose. You’ll likely have:
Experience creating content for social media (professional or strong personal portfolio)
Strong video editing skills (phone-based or software - both welcome)
A good eye for photography and visual storytelling
An understanding of what performs well on social platforms
The ability to work independently and manage your time effectively
A high degree of trust, integrity, responsiveness, respect and confidentiality.
This is an opportunity to use your creative skills for public good – helping people understand their rights, access services, and stay informed about issues that affect their lives.
You’ll play a direct role in connecting a diverse community with government – making information clearer, more inclusive and more useful.
