If you are interested in pursuing an exciting and varied role in communications and events, this may be the opportunity for you

As part of this internship opportunity, you may be tasked with:

- Coordinating components of a major event - NSW Koori Knockout. The NSW Koori Knockout will be held on the Central Coast on the first weekend of October. We will be sponsoring the event and having a stall onsite. To have an effective presence, TAO communications need to coordinate collateral, including flyers, merch, banners and incidentals.

TAO communications sit within the Campaigns, Strategy and Events Unit in the Communications branch and work for TAO. TAO is addressing the causes of Aboriginal disadvantage in NSW and improving the department’s services and programs to achieve meaningful, permanent outcomes for Aboriginal people. TAO is working toward Closing the Gap Targets and reducing the overrepresentation of Aboriginal people in adult incarceration, youth justice, out-of-home care and domestic and family violence cases.

TAO communications works with various units in the TAO division to collect stories and updates that showcase successes and progress in DCJ’s policies, programs and priorities. We share these communications internally and externally via channels such as the intranet, newsletters, social media, events and targeted stakeholder engagement.

We also support broad-reaching support of Aboriginal outcomes in DCJ, including enhancing Aboriginal Employment and celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander days of significance through event planning and grants administration.
