An exciting full-time Senior Marketing & Communications opportunity exists for a highly-skilled professional to join the Reach team in our Melbourne office. If you are ready to take the next step in your career this could be it!
Being young is not without its struggles. Today’s world is pretty complex and young people can experience a bunch of challenges that adults might not be able to relate to. One of the biggest hurdles is just having the confidence and support to be who they want to be.
There are currently over 4 million young people living in Australia, and Reach works with thousands of them a year. We have the best of the best working for us; designing and delivering workshops in schools and the community. Our workshops are 100% youth-led, from design through to delivery, and the community we create out of these workshops is one that allows for deeper connection, a sense of belonging, and the dispelling of judgements. A preventative, instead of having to focus on symptoms in adult life.
Supporting young people to discover their power.
The Reach Crew is a group of young people who are committed to creating, designing, and delivering experiences for other young people to learn more about themselves, connect with others and be their best selves. The Reach Crew consists of both volunteers and casual employees.
Reporting to the CEO and a part of the leadership team, the Head of Marketing & Communications will use their imagination and skills to show Reach off the way it should be! Working within a small team and across the organisation to ensure our vision, brand and strategy is clearly articulated, understood and embraced internally and externally.
You will be passionate about young people and the community, thrive on chaos and be ready to roll up your sleeves to ensure you give your best.
It is an exciting time at Reach as we look well in the future with our newly implemented strategic plan to support young people to thrive through building social and emotional wellbeing connections and aspirations.
