Campaign Social Media Support (Voluntary) - Remote / Work from Home

Every successful campaign relies on creating a strong positive social media presence. In an environment where print media is virtually non-existent, people need to gain information and policy understanding through the website, through direct contact and through social media.

We're looking for volunteers who can contribute their skills and time to support the social media needs of our grassroots campaign for the Victorian election.

Our candidate has been formally endorsed by Voices of Deakin. However, the campaign operates independently from Voices of Deakin, and will recruit, manage, and run its own team and strategy.

This is your chance to play a key role in a campaign that prioritises community voices over party politics – a campaign that sits at the heart of a grassroots movement built on listening, transparency, and authentic community engagement.

How you can help

We're seeking people with skills across a range of areas in the context of running a social media campaign. You might be interested in one or several – let us know what draws you.

• Opportunity to manage the team
• Identify and link accounts to local groups and communities
• Edit, manage approval and publish content
• Develop, monitor and manage ad campaigns
• Reply to comments, direct messages consistently with campaign messaging
• Assist or manage the development, monitoring and maintenance of planning and strategy to achieve campaign objectives
• Design content in collaboration with candidate and campaign team
• Work closely with the policy team on developing messaging for content.

Skills and experience

We're looking for people who are enthusiastic, organised and reliable. Experience is welcome but enthusiasm and willingness to learn and develop is also valued.

• Good organisational skills and attention to detail
• Comfortable working across a range of social media platforms
• Comfortable working independently or as part of a team
• Self-motivated and time-flexible
• Commitment to ethical conduct, integrity, and respectful political engagement

Commitment

All support to the campaign is voluntary. Hours and timing are flexible and can be tailored to your availability.

We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences.
