Ensure all content aligns with brand messaging and tone

Social Media Support

Repurpose media and content into engaging social formats
Assist with approvals and ensure accuracy and timeliness

Campaign & Stakeholder Support

Support advocacy, campaigns and external communications initiatives
Coordinate inputs from internal teams and subject matter experts
Contribute to reporting across PR, content, social and campaigns

About You

You’re a confident communicator who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and can manage competing priorities with ease.

You bring:

3+ years’ experience in PR, communications, media or journalism
Strong writing, editing and storytelling skills
Experience drafting media materials and managing media engagement
A proven ability to translate complex information into clear, engaging content
Experience across blogs, website content and social media
Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
Sound judgement and an understanding of reputational risk

Desirable:

Experience in advocacy, community or purpose-led organisations
Familiarity with CMS platforms, Canva or social scheduling tools
Experience developing case studies or impact-driven storytelling

Who What Y?

The Y NSW is a profit-for-purpose organisation focused on healthy living, social impact, and empowering young people. We operate more than 60 sites, employing over 1,000 staff across NSW to deliver enriching community programs.

We’re committed to building a diverse, inclusive workforce that reflects the communities we serve. We welcome applicants of all genders, ages, religions, abilities, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds—including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
