Gold Coast Trades College is looking for a creative, tech-savvy and motivated junior team member to support our social media, website, digital marketing and online learning resources.

This is a varied, hands-on role for someone who enjoys creating content, designing imagery, working with digital platforms and bringing ideas to life. You’ll help us showcase our students, apprentices, trainers, courses and industry partnerships while also supporting the development of engaging resources within our Learning Management System (LMS).

No two days will look the same. One day you might be filming a reel in the workshop, and the next you could be designing course imagery, updating our website or helping build an online learning activity.

- Creating and editing reels, videos and social media content

- Taking photos and videos of students, trainers, courses, workshops and events

- Designing graphics, promotional imagery and branded content using Canva or similar programs

- Planning and scheduling content across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and other platforms

- Updating wording, images, course information and landing pages on our WordPress website

- Assisting with the development and formatting of digital learning resources

- Building and uploading content within our Learning Management System

- Creating presentations, learner activities, quizzes, downloadable resources and supporting imagery

- Helping convert existing training information into clear, visually engaging digital content

- Checking online content for accuracy, consistency, spelling and presentation

- Assisting with email campaigns, promotional materials and general marketing activities

- Supporting the team with fresh ideas for student engagement, course promotion and digital learning
