We are greyhound lovers who facilitate the commercial operation of our vibrant sport of greyhound racing. GRNSW is invested at every stage of the greyhound lifecycle from kennel to couch. GRNSW is committed to the long-term sustainability of the industry by caring for our People, Pups and Participants. Greyhound Racing NSW is the body corporate of our industry, charged with providing strategic direction, innovation and governance. GRNSW promotes the exciting racing aspect of the industry, as well as the equally important rehoming of our athletes.
Are you always thinking about the next great post, reel or story? Do you know how to turn moments into engaging content and build communities online?
GRNSW is looking for a creative and proactive Social Media Manager to take ownership of the organic social media presence for TheDogs.com.au and GAP NSW. You’ll be the lead for creating engaging content, bringing race days and adoption stories to life, managing community engagement and helping to grow our audiences across multiple platforms.
This is a fast-paced and varied role where no two days are the same. One day you could be sharing race-day highlights, the next you could be helping a retired greyhound find its forever home.
