About Cancer Council Australia
Cancer Council Australia is the nation’s leading non-government cancer control organisation, focused on reducing the impact of cancer through research, prevention, and support. We work alongside the community, health professionals, and government to provide trusted information and services to those affected by cancer. With a mission to save lives and create a cancer-free future, Cancer Council offers a purpose-driven workplace where everyone can make a meaningful difference to help improve outcomes for people affected by cancer.
About the role
Cancer Council Australia is seeking a Campaigns Officer to join our team. In this role, you will contribute to large scale, integrated campaigns that reach millions of Australian and aim to reduce the incidence and mortality of cancer. You will bring a strong understanding of integrated marketing, hands-on content development experience for media and brand partnerships and campaign creative development experience that will shape our marketing activities.
Our national campaigns feature integrated partnerships with major commercial networks, media publishers, events, festivals and brands, which are created with the support of our agency village. You will be a key contact for those partners, coordinating content development, timelines, approvals and helping ensure everything we produce is on brand, on strategy, grounded in evidence.
With the support of the Senior Campaign Manager, you will work across the full arc of the campaign from briefing to reporting, with a specialist concentration on content development and delivery. You will draft and adapt campaign copy for a range of formats, including video, radio, podcast, social media and digital ads and provide first-pass reviews of content from our partners. This role is a good fit for someone who enjoys the craft of getting a message right, and who is interested in the challenge of communicating health information in ways that generate action.
This is an opportunity to make genuine, measurable impact, delivering work that makes a real difference to the lives of Australians. If it piques your interest, we would love to hear from you (even if your experience doesn't quite hit all the listed requirements).
