About this opportunity

This is more than a communications role. It's your chance to be the trusted advisor behind senior leaders, shaping how stakeholders and residents see the city.

As a strategic storyteller, you'll craft clear messages that protect and enhance the city's reputation, guiding leadership in moments of opportunity and challenge.

You'll work at the centre of conversations that matter, influencing key decisions and driving results.

Your responsibilities will include:
  • Influencing at the highest level — advising on messaging, media and reputation.
  • Shaping the city's story — crafting speeches, statements, media releases and campaigns.
  • Leading the media conversation — managing relationships with journalists and securing coverage.
  • Spotlighting what matters — showcasing community wins, local initiatives and city achievements.
  • Anticipating, advising and acting — staying across issues, opportunities and risks.
The ideal candidate will possess:
  • Proven experience in media, PR, journalism or corporate communications.
  • A track record of pitching stories, managing media and securing coverage.
  • Sharp writing and editing skills across speeches, campaigns and digital content.
  • Calm, sound judgement under pressure — with the ability to brief and advise leadership in real time.
  • The confidence to build relationships at the highest levels of government and community.
We offer:
  • A values-led organisation with influence at the highest level.
  • Flexible working arrangements and a wellbeing-first culture.
  • Direct access to the city's leadership team — a rare opportunity in local government.
  • A workplace that values creativity, courage and collaboration.
