Marketing & Events Coordinator
Fast-Growing Australian Tech Brand
Now Hiring in Melbourne
The Brand |
An exciting Australian consumer brand experiencing significant growth across retail, wholesale and eCommerce, with an expanding product portfolio and ambitious plans for its next stage.
Founder-led and entrepreneurial, the business has built strong momentum through innovative, proprietary products and a highly engaged customer community. With further investment, new product launches and international expansion ahead, this is an opportunity to join at an early stage and grow alongside the business.
As the team continues to scale, they are looking for a proactive Marketing & Events Coordinator to become a trusted support across marketing, events and the wider day-to-day operations of the business.
The Role |
This is a varied, highly hands-on position suited to someone who loves being across multiple moving parts and can take direction, run with it and get things done.
Working closely with the Founder, you will support marketing activity, coordinate a busy national events calendar and help introduce the systems and processes needed as the business grows.
You will:
Coordinate approximately 20 expos and events across Australia each year, including logistics, staffing, freight, stock and on-the-ground support.
Manage event travel, accommodation, expenses and general administration.
Support marketing calendars, project timelines, asset trackers and campaign deliverables.
Coordinate influencer gifting, product seeding and associated administration.
Support content planning and liaise with internal and external creative resources.
Assist with artwork, packaging, POS and marketing asset approvals.
Coordinate award entries, presentations and wider marketing administration.
Support new product launches, tracking timelines, samples, packaging and go-to-market requirements.
Liaise with agencies, freelancers, suppliers and retail partners.
Help establish CRM, operational systems and processes as the business continues to scale.
Jump into broader projects and priorities as they arise within a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment.
The Skillset |
We’re looking for someone with approximately 1–3 years’ experience across marketing, events, administration or coordination, ideally within consumer products, retail, wellness, beauty, FMCG or another fast-moving business.
More important than having done everything before is your attitude and ability to take ownership.
You will be:
Exceptionally organised with strong attention to detail.
Proactive, resourceful and comfortable working independently.
Confident managing multiple priorities and changing deadlines.
Someone who can take a brief and run with it rather than wait for constant direction.
Comfortable within a founder-led, entrepreneurial or start-up environment.
Agile, resilient and happy to roll up your sleeves wherever needed.
A strong written and verbal communicator.
Confident using AI tools such as ChatGPT to improve efficiency, organisation and output.
Comfortable working remotely and managing your own time effectively.
Willing and able to travel interstate regularly for expos and events, including some Friday–Sunday commitments.
A driver's licence and access to a car would be helpful but is not essential for the right person.
The Offer |
This is an opportunity to gain unusually broad exposure within a rapidly growing Australian business, working closely with a Founder who is passionate about mentoring people and promoting from within.
Rather than being siloed into one area of marketing, you’ll gain hands-on experience across events, content, influencer activity, product launches, operations and wider business projects — giving you an incredible foundation from which to develop your career.
The role is primarily work from home, with Melbourne preferred to allow for regular in-person collaboration approximately one to two times per week.
For someone energetic, ambitious and excited by the idea of joining a business while it is still being built, there is genuine opportunity for the scope and seniority of this position to grow alongside the company.
If you’re highly organised, naturally proactive and looking for a role where you can make yourself genuinely indispensable within a fast-growing business, we’d love to hear from you.
