At Bank Australia, we're looking for an experienced, values-aligned content professional who can turn strategy into action, strengthen brand awareness and nurture meaningful connections with customers.

Working closely with the Manager – Content & Engagement, you'll bring our content strategy to life across a broad range of owned channels and customer touchpoints, including website, blog, email, organic social media, the customer app and internet banking. You'll create engaging, accessible, optimised content that builds trust; highlighting customer-owned banking and impact lending, and our work across four key impact areas of:

This is a varied senior specialist role with scope for significant autonomy, ownership and trust. You'll combine critical thinking with hands-on delivery, exercising sound judgement to balance creativity, customer needs, business objectives, risk and compliance. You'll take work from idea to execution, collaborate with stakeholders across the organisation and externally, and continuously look for ways to improve what we do.

We work in a highly regulated environment, so you’ll also be confident balancing content performance with compliance obligations, avoiding greenwashing, working strictly within approved key messaging and substantiating all claims.

We're open to candidates from a range of professional backgrounds. You'll bring deep expertise in some areas of content and engagement, be willing to develop capability in others, and know when to propose leveraging agency or freelance support to achieve the best outcomes.

This role can be based in either of our Sydney or Melbourne head offices.Core required in-office days are Tuesday-Thursday.

• We offer flexible working options, competitive salary and 14% super.
• Our staff have access to a range of meaningful benefits to support their physical and mental wellbeing including 24/7 free counselling, free flu vaccinations and discounted gym memberships.
• We also support staff with study assistance, paid parental leave (regardless of gender), volunteer, bereavement, gender affirmation and family violence leave; and the opportunity for bonus annual leave.
• We support our staff to grow their careers through learning and development and an organisational culture where we reward and recognise innovation and values, not long hours.
• We are committed to building an inclusive culture and a diverse workforce that reflects the Australian community.
• We care for a conservation reserve – where we work with key partner organisations to protect threatened species and involve staff in conservation.

What you will be doing

• Planning, managing and executing content calendars across Bank Australia’s owned channels

• Leading social media community management with support from our Marketing Specialist – Content and relevant colleagues, including over weekends on a (paid) rotating basis
• Contributing to the development of the annual marketing plan and impact report
• Tracking and reporting on content performance, using insights to refine and improve .
