- Hosting live events (Q&As, study sessions, webinars) to drive student participation

- Managing a team of academic moderators and content contributors

- Monitoring student engagement and responding to trends and feedback

- Acting as the face of Dymocks Education within the community

- Driving cross-sell into tutoring, study guides, and memberships

- Reporting to the Head of Marketing

What We’re Looking For

- Demonstrated strong academic performance, with an ATAR of 85+ and high Band 5s or Band 6s in English and Maths (or equivalent)

- The ability to create highly engaging and educational content in both video and written formats

- Strong written and video content creation skills

- Experience managing and leveraging social media platforms such as Instagram, Discord, YouTube, or similar

- A genuine passion for community engagement, youth audiences, and education

- Excellent time management and organisational skills

- A current Working with Children Check (or a willingness to obtain one)

Desirable

- Experience in tutoring or educational content

- Experience leading online communities or moderators

- Academic strength in other HSC subjects

Location

This is a hybrid role, with the flexibility to work both remotely and from our Chatswood hub, conveniently located just a one-minute walk from Chatswood Station.

Hours and Remuneration

This position offers a competitive salary package of $60,000 - $80,000 (including super), plus a 5% commission on sales conversions.

You will be working on a full time or part time basis from Monday to Friday during business operating hours, with flexibility around live community sessions and events.

The business operates during school terms on the same hours as it does in term. Leave is generally limited to school holidays and there is a 3 week mandatory shut-down over Christmas. Hours and days will be discussed in further application stages.

Right to Work

You must have the right to work in Australia and provide evidence of this to us.
