With us you'll be doing just that, leaving a legacy for all Australians. Plus, there's equal employment, great training, and true flexible working arrangements. A fantastic opportunity has presented itself for a Social Media Specialist reporting to General Manager Media and External Communications. A bit about your role As a Social Media Specialist, you will play a meaningful role as the everyday voice of nbn, connecting with customers and communities in a way that builds trust, understanding and genuine engagement. You will thoughtfully manage and respond across nbn's social and digital channels, creating a consistent and empathetic presence that reflects the organisation's commitment to transparency, accountability and strong customer outcomes. In this role, you will contribute to the creation and delivery of engaging content, supporting integrated communications campaigns and ensuring messaging feels clear, accessible and aligned across channels. Alongside this, you will listen closely to online conversations, identifying emerging trends, concerns and opportunities, and helping to bring these insights back into the business to support better decisions and experiences. Your work will help surface early signals of risk or opportunity, enabling timely and considered responses that strengthen community confidence and protect nbn's reputation. Working as part of a collaborative and supportive team, you will balance thoughtful adherence to process with sound judgement and initiative, particularly when navigating complex or sensitive interactions.

With experience in social media, customer service or digital communications, you are confident engaging with diverse audiences and translating complex information into simple, helpful and human responses. You take pride in creating connections that feel authentic and meaningful, even in fast‑moving or challenging situations. You have a solid understanding of the social media landscape, including emerging trends and brand storytelling. You are familiar with tools such as Meta Business Suite and other social media management platforms, and are comfortable using them to plan, monitor, and optimise content. You are naturally curious and insight‑led, with a strong awareness of the online environment and how conversations evolve across platforms. You enjoy working collaboratively while also feeling comfortable taking ownership of your work, using sound judgement to balance responsiveness, accuracy and care. Your approach is thoughtful and proactive, and you are motivated by the opportunity to continuously learn and grow within a supportive and purpose‑driven environment. Above all, you bring a genuine care for people and outcomes. You listen deeply, communicate with kindness and act with integrity, helping to create positive experiences for customers while contributing to a culture that values connection, collaboration and shared success.
