Communications Manager

Are you a strategic communicator who knows how to make words matter – someone who understands the power of storytelling and knows how to use it to connect, influence, and create real impact?

We’re on the lookout for a strategic and creative Communications Manager with loads of energy to help tell our stories – from media and advocacy to content and campaigns that shine a light on the issues we tackle and the lives we impact.

In this pivotal leadership role, you will help shape and share the voice of Foodbank Victoria – identifying story opportunities, crafting compelling narratives, championing our impact, leading media relations, and engaging stakeholders through authentic and original storytelling. Working closely with our every part of our organisation, you will bring to life the stories of our people, programs and partnerships as we work together to provide every Victorian with access to healthy food.

If you are a skilled communicator and a bit of a newshound who thrives on writing, storytelling and building influence through words – and want your work to mean something – we would love to hear from you!
