You'll create compelling content across multiple channels, coordinate major employee engagement activities including town halls, manage and enhance our SharePoint intranet, and provide strategic communications support to senior stakeholders. Success in this role will come from your ability to balance storytelling, stakeholder engagement and campaign delivery with a practical understanding of modern communications tools, channels and performance measurement.

Key Responsibilities include:

• Create engaging and impactful content across email, intranet and employee events, including profiles, Q&As and feature stories that showcase our people, their work and achievements.

• Monitor, analyse and report on communication effectiveness, using engagement metrics and insights to measure impact, identify trends and drive continuous improvement.
• Manage the Internal Communications mailbox and contribute to the corporate affairs on-call roster, providing timely communications support for employee enquiries and business-critical matters as required.

You are comfortable partnering with senior leaders, balancing multiple priorities and delivering high-quality communications, campaigns and events. With strong technical capability across platforms such as SharePoint, email marketing tools and creative design software, you bring a practical, hands-on approach, creative flair and a passion for creating meaningful employee experiences.

You'll Thrive in This Role If You:

• Are a skilled storyteller who can simplify complex organisational messages and change initiatives into engaging and meaningful content.
• Build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders and confidently provide communications advice across all levels of an organisation.
