Are you a natural storyteller with a strategic mind and a passion for community?

Tweed Shire Council is on the lookout for a creative and people-focused Communication & Engagement Business Partner to join their high-performing team in the Corporate Services division.

This is a hands-on, varied role where you'll work closely with internal teams and business partners to deliver best-practice communication and engagement strategies across Council's many programs and services. You'll be informing and involving the community in decisions that affect them - and making sure key messages cut through with clarity and impact.

In this role, you will:

• Collaborate with internal stakeholders to develop and deliver strategic marketing, comms and engagement campaigns
• Write and produce engaging content for web, social, video, newsletters, media releases, signage and more
• Support community engagement initiatives and civic events - from drop-in sessions to launches and media opportunities
• Provide advice on campaign planning, digital content, advertising, plain language and brand alignment
• Work across a broad mix of projects - from sustainability and infrastructure to tourism, trails and events

What you'll bring:

• Solid experience in comms, marketing or community engagement

• Demonstrated experience in coordinating events

• Sharp writing skills with the ability to tailor content to different audiences and platforms
• A collaborative approach and strong stakeholder engagement skills
• Creativity, initiative and the ability to manage multiple projects at once
• Confidence with tools like Canva, Adobe Suite, Microsoft Office - and ideally some photo/video experience too

On our wish list:

• A degree (or postgrad quals) in communications, marketing, journalism, PR, community engagement or similar
• IAP2 certification or a strong understanding of engagement best practice
• Experience in a fast-paced, full-service comms team - especially within government or complex organisations
