Festival of Voices

    Join our team

    At Festival of Voices we advertise employment opportunities from time to time, especially in the lead up to the event. We employ people in a range of areas, including administrative roles, organisational roles as well as in the performance space.

    We welcome enquiries from interested and passionate individuals.


    Current Opportunity

    Partnerships & Development Manager

    This is a newly created role for someone who enjoys building relationships, finding opportunities and turning good ideas into meaningful support. 

    Festival of Voices has grown steadily and until now, partnerships, sponsorship, fundraising and grant development have been shared across the team, alongside other responsibilities. We’ve reached a point where this work needs dedicated ownership — and that’s where you come in! You’ll lead the partnerships and development function, building on the relationships and systems we already have while helping shape where we go next. 

    The position description for this role is deliberately broad. It describes the potential scope of a partnerships and development function at Festival of Voices, rather than a checklist of everything we expect one person to be an expert in. 

    We know there may not be a single individual who has done all of this. You might have deep experience in grants and funding, corporate partnerships, fundraising, philanthropy, business development or another related area. You might be particularly strong at building relationships, writing compelling proposals, finding opportunities or turning good ideas into sustainable partnerships. 

    We’re interested in what you’re really good at, what you enjoy doing and what you could bring to our team. The role can be shaped around the right person’s strengths and experience while we build and develop the broader function together. 

    If you can see yourself bringing something valuable to this role — even if you don’t tick every box in the position description — we want to hear from you.

    Marketing & Digital Content Coordinator

    Whether you’re an emerging marketer looking to take the next step in your career or an experienced coordinator seeking meaningful work, we’d love to hear from you.

    This role plays a key part in delivering Festival of Voices’ marketing and audience engagement activities throughout the year. From social media and digital content to email marketing, website updates and campaign coordination, you’ll help share the stories that connect audiences with the festival.

    This is a permanent part-time position offering flexibility, responsibility and the opportunity to contribute to one of Australia’s most celebrated festivals.
