Regular team bonding is a massive part of Pedestrian Group’s culture. Whether it's knockoffs at the local, engaging in team-building, monthly half day Fridays, and leadership training activities, exploring diverse cultural experiences, attending our annual company-wide summits, or simply gathering for a laid-back office BBQ on the balcony with a DJ and a cheeky margarita station… it would be rude not to.

Pedestrian Group is a great place to begin or level up a rewarding career in media. We surround ourselves with the brightest minds to produce work that pushes boundaries and enables young Aussies to feel seen, informed, entertained and understood.
