Volunteering WA’s mission is ‘to empower people and communities to enrich Western Australia’, and our vision is ‘A society where everyone is inspired to make a difference’. As the peak organisation for volunteering in WA, we are the leading voice for volunteers and volunteer involving organisations, working to strengthen the sector and promote the benefits of volunteering.
The role
The Marketing and Communications team supports Volunteering WA’s Engage strategy, which is responsible for promoting volunteering and fostering opportunities for participation and partnerships.
The Events & Marketing Coordinator will be responsible for the coordination of Volunteering WA’s two key annual events, the Volunteer Day Garden Party (500+pax) and the WA Volunteer of the Year Awards program and gala dinner (150 nominations, 380+pax); as well as using your marketing and communications experience to support the organisation’s overall marcomms strategy by creating and distributing content (EDMs, socials, website cms) to market select Volunteering WA services, including our training workshops, corporate volunteering program, membership program, and consultancy services.
In 2023, this role will also work with the Marketing & Communications Manager to deliver the 2-day State Volunteering Conference (200+pax) which is held every second year.
In between events (and in place of the bi-annual conference in 2024), you will help coordinate marketing and communications activities to engage volunteer involving organisations, such as member engagement/recruitment, training and IT sales campaigns.
