About Airtree

Airtree is a venture capital firm backing Aussie and Kiwi founders, building the iconic technology companies of tomorrow. We’re powered by our network, dedicating extraordinary resources to help founders shortcut company-building firsts and accelerate their journey from idea to global household name.

As one of the largest and most active early-stage investors in Australia and New Zealand, Airtree’s 110+ portfolio features the region’s breakout tech companies, including Canva, Go1, Employment Hero, Pet Circle, Immutable and Linktree.

We're a down-to-earth team from diverse backgrounds but with the same passion: startups and technology. We've written a lot about what we do at Airtree, check out our blog, 2023 year in review, and team bios on our website.

We're committed to building a world-class VC platform for Australia and New Zealand startups with global ambitions. This is a rare opportunity to amplify Airtree’s brand in market and make a material impact on our region’s tech ecosystem.

This is a 12 month parental leave contract role.

What you’ll do

  • Be the point-person for all media activities: Design earned media strategies and pitches to reporters to attract coverage in targeted outlets, triage inbound media requests and proactively identify opportunities for Airtree to add to public conversations. 
  • Support and be a thought partner to Airtree’s leadership team on all things communications-related: Prepare internal stakeholders for speaking opportunities and media interviews and work with cross-functional teams to ensure consistent messaging across all channels and touchpoints with founders and LPs. 
  • Act as our brand custodian: Manage Airtree’s brand identity to ensure wherever we show up is consistent and aligned with our audience, values and goals. 
  • Oversee, manage and create content for Open Source VC: Collaborate with the Airtree team and subject matter experts to produce high-quality content to add to the Open Source VC library of resources. 
  • Design and execute marketing initiatives that add value to our community: From webinars to workshops, email or digital campaigns, you’ll source talent, write copy, put together creative and measure results across our marketing efforts.
  • Act as an extension of our portfolio companies PR & Comms teams: Provide portfolio companies with guidance, reviews, feedback and resources on fundraise announcements and media opportunities.

Requirements

The person we're looking for:

  • Has a proven track record of transforming marketing and communication strategies into fully executed projects, often with limited resources, from concept to final delivery. 
  • Works autonomously and with ambiguity, connecting the dots on strategy, rolling up your sleeves and executing. 
  • Is a brand champion, ensuring marketing initiatives have respect and empathy for Airtree’s audience, with an eye for design and awareness of societal shifts and contextual nuance. 
  • Has excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to translate technical concepts and simplify them for various audiences. 
  • Reads the room, media sentiment and internal and external stakeholders, demonstrating high judgement in decision-making, balancing risk and reward, and consistently making sound choices in complex and ambiguous situations. 
  • Collaborate with multiple senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams, managing upwards and guiding them towards delivering outcomes that align with and achieve business goals. 

Benefits

Location, Flexibility & Support

  • Airtree’s office is based in Sydney, but our team enjoys a flexible (WFH days), supportive and family-friendly work environment.

As part of this contract role we offer:

  • 5 weeks of leave: 4 weeks annual leave plus 1 bonus week of lifestyle and well-being leave
  • A range of health and wellness benefits including EAP, mental health first aid training, skin checks, flu vaccines and more…
