Australian Plays Transform

Creative Producer (Digital)

Role type: 0.4 FTE, part time, flexible hours Salary: $77,625 pro rata Start Date: For immediate start

Applications close: Thursday 17th September 9am (AEST)

About the Role

Australian Plays Transform (APT) is the national playwriting organisation and publisher of Australian plays. We're looking for a Creative Producer (Digital) to shape APT’s digital presence — across our website, social media and design.

This hands-on role combines content creation with day-to-day digital operations, including serving as a key point of contact for our website rebuild (currently underway) and broader digital and publishing matters.

This role's scope will evolve once the new website is live, with responsibilities reviewed and adjusted accordingly.

Who Is This Role Suited To?

This role suits a creative person with real interest and skill in the digital world — someone who may have designed a website for their own practice or business, and who understands how good storytelling translates online.

Experience in theatre and playwriting, or in publishing and design, is highly valued. Hours are flexible and can be spread across more than two days a week. APT is a family-friendly employer, and we're happy to work around caring responsibilities.

Location preference is Sydney-based, with the capacity to work some hours in-office in Carlton, NSW. We will consider applications from applicants based outside Sydney or NSW.
