Overview
Assistant Director, Communication and Engagement
Full-time Temporary with a Possibility of Permanency
Details: If you want a job that lets you flex your creative muscles, this is it.
The Communication and Customer Experience Team sits within Digital, Data and Technology Services (DDTS). DDTS delivers Whole of Government IT service and support to the 26,000 people who work for the ACT Government. As Assistant Director, Communication and Engagement you get to talk to all of them! You also get to push the boundaries of what government communication can look like.
Join our team and you’ll be surrounded and supported by colleagues who know communication is as much of a science as it is an art. We understand that creativity is essential to engage an audience. When we say we are open to trying new things we really mean it.
Our primary focus is written content, but we know sometimes an infographic can speak a thousand words and a video can demonstrate a process more clearly than a screenshot.
We expect your approach to communication:
- is evidence-based
- puts accessibility first
- aligns with best practice.
We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where people with diverse thoughts, lived experience, and perspectives can thrive and contribute their unique talents to the ACTPS and ACT community. We encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people with disability, people with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, veterans, younger and older workers, and people with diverse genders, sexes and sexualities to apply.
Eligibility/Other Requirements:
- Minimum five years’ experience in a communications or content creation role.
- Experience in ICT project communication is highly desirable.
- Qualification in a communication discipline is highly desirable but not essential.
How to Apply: Your application should include;
- a maximum two-page pitch, based on the position description and eligibility requirements, that tells us why you're the right person for the job
- a current curriculum vitae with two references (including your current supervisor)
- optional - up to three examples of content pieces you're proud of.
