As we grow and work towards our goal of being the Number 1 go to company that young people travel Australia with, we are looking for a Social Media Coordinator to join our team in our Melbourne office.

This is a part time role working 3 days per week (22.8 hours) in our Melbourne office on a 3 month contract with possibility to extend if successful and the demand is there.

But first, a little bit about us…

- We have had travellers from 42 different countries.

We know that the hardest part about travelling is always the start, so we want to make sure each traveller has the best possible experience with us.

Our Mission

Make thousands of people feel like Australia is calling their name.

We’re not looking for someone to manage a content calendar. We’re looking for someone to help build a travel brand that people genuinely love – one that makes them stop scrolling, start dreaming, and book a trip.

You’ll own Instagram and TikTok for Welcome to Travel. Your job is to capture the feeling of travel – the freedom, the people, the places, the moments – and turn it into content that builds a community , moves people to act and trust that Welcome to Travel are the company to travel with.

Role Responsibilities

Tell the Welcome to Travel Story

You’ll turn content opportunities into content inspires the next future backpacker and make them feel something.

- Traveller stories that people can relate to
- Tour experiences and destinations
- Behind-the-scenes office content that shows we’re real people too
- The moments that make Australia worth coming for
- UGC from our community before, during and after travel

If it makes someone want to pack a bag, we should be sharing it!

Don’t be afraid to think outside the box.

We need someone to be accountable and take initiative.



You have the chance to have creative freedom and bring new ideas to life.

We want someone to ask questions AND help answer them.

Let your ideas be tried:

- If you spot a trend worth jumping on, try it.
- If you think something can be improved, share it.

You’ll help Welcome to Travel to have a bigger online voice than ever before.

Day to Day responsibilities:

- Film, shoot and edit content independently and with the marketing team where needed
- Support the marketing team on future campaigns
- Writing scripts, hooks and captions that stop the scroll and build connection
- Plan and publish content consistently
- Repurpose content from our extensive media catalogue (we have a huge library of travel footage, photography, and UGC ready to repurposed)
- Analyse content performance and using these findings to improve future content

We don’t want someone who just takes orders, we want someone who brings ideas, spots opportunities, and has the initiative to act on them.

Build the Community

You’re not just posting – you’re building a space people want to be part of.

- Monitor and respond to comments and DMs across Instagram and TikTok
- Proactively engage with the WtT community
- Source and repurpose UGC from travellers sharing their experiences

Keep the Creative Engine Running

Alongside organic content, you’ll assist:

- Create paid social creatives (static and video) for Instagram and TikTok – creation only, not ads management
- Build a library of evergreen content WtT can draw on across campaigns
- Constantly improve creative through testing and learning

and love understanding what makes people stop scrolling
- You move fast and don’t wait to be told what to do

- You can write a hook, build a narrative, and land a point in every piece of content
- You’re confident editing short-form video at speed (CapCut, Premiere, or similar)
- You understand why content performs or doesn’t – and you use that to get better

- You’re resilient – when something doesn’t land, you’re already thinking about what to try next, without being asked
- You want to help build a travel brand people love , not just manage a posting schedule
- Experience in social media or content creation is great to have, but we won’t rule anyone out. If you’ve got the instincts, the drive, and the creativity – we want to hear from you.
