About the Area
The Media & Public Relations Unit is at the heart of building trust, connection and pride in UOW. Part of the Advancement and Communications Division, the team amplifies UOW's reputation by connecting journalists with world-class experts, generating influential coverage, and showcasing the university's contributions to society.

As a Media and Public Relations Specialist, you will:
- Drive proactive media campaigns that amplify UOW's leadership, innovation and societal impact.
- Build thought leadership opportunities for our academics and executives across national and international platforms.
- Shape and pitch compelling stories that resonate with journalists and diverse audiences.
- Provide expert coaching and guidance to spokespeople, helping them shine in high-profile settings.
- Contribute directly to UOW's Vision 2035 and Strategic Plan 2030, ensuring a strong, unified voice across all media channels.
This is your chance to play a pivotal role in lifting UOW's reputation nationally and globally. If you're energetic, well-connected, and ready to drive meaningful media impact, we want you on our team.
