Bendigo, Australia Coliban Water Full time

**Introduction**:
We’re looking for an all-rounder to join our growing communications team at Coliban Water as an Education & Events Officer.

**Description**:
Roles like these ones don’t come up very often. You’ll work collaboratively to build a dynamic and diverse education and events calendar filled with interactive and engaging ways to bring the Coliban Water story and our plans and projects to life.

You’ll take on day-to-day responsibility for the operational and administrative coordination of high quality, face-to-face, hybrid and online events, including:

- The strategic consideration of opportunities
- Planning, scheduling and rostering
- Developing event briefs
- Identifying and nurturing partnerships with community groups, schools, and other key groups
- Develop and manage promotional items
- Draft and coordinate event publicity and promotion
- Set-up evaluation methodology and undertake reporting

Together with the team, you’ll ensure our education and events program has clear and measurable objectives and increases customer and community awareness of how we sustainably manage our precious water resource for the future.

To be successful in this role, you’ll be a people person first and foremost. You’ll be naturally curious, at your happiest talking with people of all ages and from all walks of life, a dedicated problem solver, unafraid to roll your sleeves up, and fantastic at dotting your I-s and crossing your T-s.

We’ve got an open mind. With a background in marketing, communication, education and training, events may be squarely in your wheelhouse. Or, you may have different experience, and think this might be your time to shine.

Interested? Learn more in the Position Description or ring Melissa McEwan, Corporate Communications & Events Manager, on 0438 317 419.

To apply, please submit your resume and cover letter by close of business, Friday 30 September.

Why join us?

Like Goldilocks, Coliban Water offers a little bit of everything that’s just right.

You’ll love the people, because we love what we do. You’ll love our location in the middle of beautiful Bendigo and spanning a region that takes in 49 towns from Trentham to Echuca. You’ll love the office, with free parking and café-quality coffee that can transform your day. And you’ll love the flexibly to shape your work to suit your lifestyle.

At Coliban Water everyone gets the standard four weeks annual leave. Throw in a monthly rostered day off, time off over the Christmas break and the option to purchase additional leave, and there’ll be plenty of time for you.

Our commitment to inclusion means you’ll feel at home here no matter who you are, who you love, or what you stand for. We also offer generous parental and carer leave and workplace study policies.

At Coliban Water we balance a small team rhythm with the reach and resources of one of the largest Victorian regional urban water corporations.

What are you waiting for? We’d love you to join us.

Applicants will need to successfully complete all core training requirements in the expected timeframes, and require a Victorian driver’s licence and have or be willing to undertake a Police Check, Working with Children Check, Pre-Employment Medicals or Psychometric testing where applicable. Applicants may also be required to produce evidence of their Right to Work in Australia.
