Why you might love this opp:
The Invasive Species Council is looking for a Digital Content Producer to help put Australia's invasive species crisis firmly on the national agenda.
This is a role for someone who understands how to use digital content to drive real-world change. We're looking for a creative storyteller with strong social media instincts who can turn complex environmental issues into compelling content that captures attention, sparks conversation and builds pressure for action.
Details:
- Reports to: Media and Communications Manager
- Basis: Full-time
- Location: Remote home or shared office in Katoomba or Wollongong
- Duration: Two-year contract, extension possible depending on performance and funding
- Salary range: $85,000-$95,000 plus superannuation, depending on skills and experience. Salary packaging, 1 week paid study or field work leave, plus three days bonus ex-gratia leave, Christmas/New Year are part of the package
What's involved:
The Digital Content Producer will play a leading role in shaping and growing ISC's digital presence – creating content, developing social media campaigns, identifying opportunities to engage new audiences and helping ensure our advocacy reaches far beyond the people already paying attention.
Working closely with campaigners, media staff and subject matter experts, you'll transform policy debates, breaking news, field work and campaign moments into engaging digital content that resonates with Australians. Whether it's a reel, video series, social campaign, graphic, web story or rapid-response content opportunity, you'll be trusted to bring fresh ideas and help evolve how ISC shows up online.
This isn't a role for someone who simply schedules posts. We're looking for someone who wants to experiment, test new approaches, challenge assumptions and help build one of Australia's most effective environmental advocacy brands.
At ISC, communications isn't a support function; it is advocacy. We operate more like a newsroom than a traditional NGO communications team – moving quickly, finding strong stories and using communications to influence public debate and decision-makers.
Key criteria:
Essential:
- Proven digital content creation skills: Demonstrated experience producing engaging multimedia content, particularly short-form video (reels/TikToks), graphics, and social media assets for an organization, campaign, or media outlet.
- Exceptional storytelling & copywriting: The ability to distill complex science, policy, or advocacy issues into clear, compelling, and shareable digital content.
- Strategic social media instincts: A strong understanding of social media platforms, audience growth strategies, and how to identify newsworthy moments or emerging trends to engage people.
- Project management & nimbleness: Demonstrated ability to manage multiple content projects, work under tight deadlines, and adapt quickly in a fast-paced environment.
- Autonomy & drive: A proactive approach with the confidence to generate ideas, test new formats, and self-direct work with minimal supervision.
- Mission alignment: A strong commitment to the mission and values of the Invasive Species Council.
Desirable:
- Experience working in advocacy, campaigning, journalism, politics, media or the not-for-profit sector.
- Experience developing or contributing to digital advocacy campaigns.
- Video production and editing experience.
- Experience using WordPress and website content management systems.
- Understanding of digital analytics and reporting tools.
- Knowledge of environmental, conservation or invasive species issues.
