Our charity is looking for someone who can volunteer or provide pro bono services for about 5 hours per month, and is looking to give back to the community outside of their regular employment.

- Have strong communications and networking skills, a background in business or marketing, and be willing to give this role a go trying something new.
Location and hours:
- There are no set hours for this role, aside from any interviews or meetings to attend.
- This role is able to be carried out remotely and we will accept interstate applicants provided they are able to communicate via phone, email, and video link to any media interviews that would otherwise take place in-person.
