About the role
How do you make it easier for our people, stakeholders, media and the public to understand WorkSafe's role and areas of focus? Through engaging and effective communications.

- Be responsible for supporting end-to-end delivery of communications projects so being able to juggle multiple requirements at once is critical
- Be expected to support and at times generate content for internal and external communications through oral, written and visual means including writing articles, creating presentations, and commissioning collateral.

**To be successful, you will**:

- Have a minimum of one year's experience working in an office environment, preferably in a communications and/or marketing function
- Demonstrate communications (written and oral) and presentation skills using a variety of writing styles and skills
- Have the ability to build and maintain strong relationships and networks
