  • Hello there, Brisbane-based communications specialist looking for a truly flexible, full time role!

    Are you an exceptional writer and editor who loves project managing content delivery? Does editing and improving content while collaborating with subject matter experts and meeting stakeholder needs sound like a space you’d thrive?

    If you’re an experienced writer or editor looking for a full time role with an employer that’s truly family friendly and ‘gets’ that life exists outside work, you’re in the right place.

    Heart Talent is delighted to partner with this Brisbane-based nonprofit organisation to find the newest member of their inclusive, high-performing communications and engagement team.

    In this diverse environment you’ll work with deeply-engaged internal and external stakeholders in a collaborative and consultative manner. This way of working is core to the organisation’s DNA and a critical success factor in this role.

    While your focus will be project managing content delivery, this role is informed by a strong business imperative and you’ll be part of a strategic communications team backed by invested leadership with a bold vision for the future.

    Interested? Great! Here’s what you probably want to know next.

    What’s on offer

    • two year contract (renewable)

    • full time role, 5 days per week (part time not considered)

    • flexible, family-friendly environment

    • WFH 3 days per week, 2 days in convenient South Brisbane office

    • salary range $115-130k + super, depending on experience

    • 17.5% leave loading and other benefits

    • an established, well-resourced and growing organisation

    • inclusive, supportive, respectful working environment

    About this opportunity 

    Reporting to the Director of Engagement and working as part of a small team, this role project manages the development and delivery of a range of communication material, balancing deadlines and diverse stakeholder needs. Your key responsibilities will include:

    • Deliver written content including stakeholder communications, website content, reports, presentations, social media content, blogs and marketing material

    About you

    We’re looking for an experienced communications professional who is curious, confident, highly organised and reliable. 

    You want to do interesting work with clever, driven people; but you’re not looking for a seat at the leadership table.

    You’re an exceptional writer but equally happy to edit, improve and repurpose content written by others. You’re collaborative, responsive, accountable and outcomes-focused.

    You might have a background in higher education, research, finance, engineering or the public sector. Wherever you’re coming from, you have demonstrated experience in plain English writing and simplifying complex information into clear, accessible content.

    We’d love you to bring:

    • 5-8 years’ experience in a writing, editing, or content-focused role

    • exceptional writing skills with the ability to write clearly and concisely for a variety of media

    • obsessive attention to detail, particularly in grammar, tone, style, and formatting

    • proven project management, able to manage timelines and juggle priorities

    • an adaptable, proactive working style and strong professional judgment

    • ability to work independently and manage upwards / across when needed

    • ability to align writing with organisational goals and audience needs
