ROLE DETAILS
This established financial services organisation works closely with government, industry and the private sector on purpose driven work. It’s a high profile environment with plenty happening and strong visibility across the organisation.
ABOUT THE ROLE
They’re looking for an experienced communications professional who can come in and get moving quickly. Media and external communications will be a big part of the role, from drafting releases and responding to enquiries through to preparing senior leaders for interviews and external engagements. You’ll also help with emerging issues and broader communications as needed, so this will suit someone who likes variety and is comfortable working without a lot of direction.
DUTIES
At Lotus People, we are committed to fostering diversity, equity and inclusion. We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply and will ensure a fair and equitable recruitment process.
Every application we receive is reviewed by a real person, never by AI. If your experience aligns with the requirements of the role, a consultant will be in touch within 2–3 business days for an initial phone screen. Shortlisted candidates will then proceed to a virtual interview with the consultant managing the role.
Due to the volume of applications and the specific nature of our briefs, we are unable to take phone enquiries about roles before an application is submitted. We ask that all interested candidates please apply online and wait to hear from us. Rest assured, we respond to every applicant, regardless of the outcome, so you will not be left wondering.
