Full Job Description

Shape your future. Serve your community. Belong to something bigger.

At Lismore City Council, we are delivering one of the most significant regional reconstruction efforts in Australia. Our Flood Restoration Portfolio (FRP) is a multi-year, once-in-a-career program rebuilding the community’s essential infrastructure following the 2022 natural disaster events, restoring essential roads, bridges, drainage, water and public infrastructure across the Lismore region.

Lismore’s Northern Rivers location fosters an ideal work-life balance. It offers lush farmland, beautiful parks, a World Heritage-listed rainforest to explore, great restaurants, a diverse arts and cultural scene, and more—all just a stone’s throw from the Gold Coast, Ballina, and Byron Bay.

Today, Lismore is flourishing, and it's the perfect time to embrace and celebrate everything that makes the regional city so unique, while also being directly involved in shaping its future.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for an experienced Engagement & Communications Officer who can take complex technical information and turn it into clear, engaging communications that keep our community, stakeholders and project teams informed. You’ll work closely with Project Managers, Contractors, and operational teams to communicate and manage project impacts, milestones and benefits while building strong relationships with residents, and key stakeholders.

If you’re passionate about community engagement and enjoy working in a fast-paced infrastructure environment, we’d love to hear from you.

Responsibilities include:

Develop and deliver communication and stakeholder engagement plans for civil infrastructure projects
Work closely with Project Managers and contractors to understand project impacts and milestones
Coordinate and oversee timely community notifications, media content, project updates and digital communications
Translate technical and engineering information into clear, community-friendly content
Build positive relationships with residents, businesses, government agencies and key stakeholders
Support consultation activities, community meetings and stakeholder briefings
Monitor community feedback and provide practical communication advice to project teams
Ensure communications align with Council policies, legislative requirements and best practice.

What you'll need to be successful

Tertiary qualification in a relevant discipline (i.e., Communications, community engagement, or Project management) is essential
5+ years of experience in project management, ideally on large-scale ground engineering projects
Has experience in communications, stakeholder engagement or community relations
Ability to manage contractors to meet timelines and quality of deliverables
Can confidently simplify complex technical information into plain language
Builds trusted relationships with diverse stakeholders
Is organised and able to manage multiple projects simultaneously
Has excellent written and verbal communication skills
Is comfortable working with technical professionals including engineers, contractors and project managers
Thrives in a collaborative, solutions-focused environment

Please review the position description and use your resume and application responses to demonstrate your ability to fulfil the position's responsibilities.
