What You'll Need to Succeed To be successful in this role, you must demonstrate:
Educational Context: Proven experience planning and delivering communications, engagement campaigns, and event management within an educational or training environment.
Digital & Creative Toolkits: Strong knowledge of graphic design principles for both digital and print media, with proficiency using the Microsoft Office Suite and Adobe Creative Cloud.
Communication Excellence: High-level interpersonal and written skills, with a proven ability to translate complex concepts into clear, engaging content for diverse student cohorts.

An opportunity to meaningfully impact the student experience within a respected public sector educational provider.
A collaborative and culturally inclusive team culture.
Competitive ASO5-equivalent contract rates.
