Current Magazine - Help bring something new to life.

Provincial Media is seeking a creative, organised and connected Associate Editor to help shape a special magazine project launching in 2027.

We’re keeping the name under wraps for now, but the vision is taking shape: a beautifully designed publication celebrating people, creativity, culture and the stories that bring us together.

Working closely with our Managing Editor and publishing team, you’ll help develop the magazine’s voice, build relationships with contributors and turn fresh ideas into engaging content across print, digital, video and events.

The role includes:

- Developing story ideas, researching features and conducting interviews.

- Writing and editing compelling, thoughtful editorial.

- Coordinating contributors, deadlines and editorial schedules.

- Working with our design and production team to bring each edition together.

- Helping develop social content, interviews and short videos.

- Helping organise and host occasional events, including launch celebrations and reader experiences.

- Building relationships with local businesses, creatives and community partners.

- Identifying advertising and partnership opportunities and contributing to the team’s sales efforts.





- Representing the magazine at relevant events and industry gatherings.

About you

You’re a confident writer and editor with a curious mind, strong attention to detail and a natural ability to connect with people. You enjoy discovering a good story and have the initiative to follow it through.

Experience in magazines, journalism or digital publishing is desirable, along with an interest in lifestyle, culture and creative communities.

You’ve had some experience organising or supporting events and are happy to lend a hand with the occasional gathering. Sales and relationship building come naturally to you, and you’re comfortable introducing opportunities to potential advertisers and partners while contributing to the wider team.

Local connections in the Geelong region and confidence with video or interviewing on camera would also be welcome.

The prospect

Join an established independent publisher and play a meaningful role in a new title from its earliest stages, with room to contribute ideas and help shape its future.

Initially two to three days per week, with the opportunity to make this role your own. Further project details will be shared with shortlisted applicants.
