The Position

We’re looking for a rockstar Marketing & Social Media Assistant who thrives on execution.

About the company 

Our client is an Australian-based education community that supports residential builders in improving their businesses. With a strong focus on real-world tools and practical strategies, they offer training, coaching, and support to help builders gain control, streamline operations, and build more sustainable businesses.

 

About the role

You’ll be an awesome executor when it comes to marketing and social media activities, helping to repurpose content, communication, and campaign tasks. The strategy is handled by the leadership — you bring it to life with your ability to deliver quality work with speed and accuracy.

If you’re organised, love implementing marketing activities, social media posts, updating website content, (basic stuff), managing emails, and supporting members when needed, then this job is for you!
