With origins in the holiday park industry, in recent years G'day Group has been rapidly diversifying into premium, experiential tourism and investing in even better digital experiences across platforms. Through this growth, we've remained focused on our promise to provide authentic Australian holiday experiences that connect our customers with regional pockets of Australia. With a new CMO and expanding Marketing team, it's an exciting time to be part of the G'day journey.

- Working with and across key communication channels (traditional and digital) to support the Operations Team and Parks to meet revenue outcomes by leveraging existing and developing new tactical campaigns and assets
- Assist in the development of park-centric content designed to optimise search ranking and drive booking conversion
- Understand and follow key operational reporting tools including Forward Booking Analysis to ensure all advertising and promotional material is targeted and focused according to occupancy within each park

**Your Experience**

You will have tertiary qualifications in Marketing combined with a strong understanding of budgeting, and executing activities that drive commercial results. You will pride yourself on your organisation skills and your ability to switch priorities on short notice. You have a particular interest in strategic planning and campaign implementation.
