Job Description
Do you live for bringing bold ideas to life through unforgettable events, partnerships, and campaigns? Are you ready to lead a creative, high-energy team making a real impact in education?
We’re on the hunt for an Engagement & Sponsorship Manager to take the reins of our event experiences, sponsorship strategy, and community engagement initiatives - all while championing a diverse portfolio of brands that change lives.
About the role
As the Engagement & Sponsorship Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind exciting, student-focused events and powerful partnerships that build brand love and deliver real results.
You’ll lead a creative, national team to design and deliver standout experiences - from headline expos and open days to digital-first events and strategic sponsorships. You’ll collaborate with passionate marketers, educators, and senior leaders to bring bold ideas to life across Australia.
If you're a natural connector, creative thinker, and strategic doer who thrives in a fast-paced, purpose-led environment - this is your opportunity to make your mark.
What you’ll do
Lead from the front – Drive the strategy and execution of high-impact events, sponsorships, and campus activations across the country
Deliver unforgettable experiences – Create moments that matter for prospective students through innovative in-person and online events
Own key partnerships – Identify, negotiate, and activate sponsorships that elevate our brands and open new opportunities
Amplify our message – Roll out exciting promotional campaigns that bring visibility to our education brands
Inspire and lead your team – Manage and motivate a dynamic, remote Campus Activation Team, nurturing a culture of creativity and excellence
Track the impact – Use insights and analytics to continually improve and innovate everything you do
Be the connector – Collaborate across marketing, admissions, and leadership teams to keep our audience at the heart of every experience
What we are looking for
You're a big-picture thinker with a flair for detail and a passion for creating experiences that wow. You're equally at home on the event floor, negotiating a deal, or coaching your team to success. Most importantly, you love the buzz of bringing people together and making an impact through creative, meaningful engagement.
Ready to make your move?
If you're driven to lead with heart, hustle, and purpose - we’d love to hear from you.
Qualifications
A degree in marketing, event management, business, or related field
5+ years of experience leading events, sponsorships, or experiential marketing (bonus points if it’s in education!)
Experience managing remote or multi-location teams
Strong project management and campaign planning skills
Excellent communication, stakeholder engagement, and leadership abilities
A head for data and a heart for storytelling
Tech-savvy with tools like Salesforce and event platforms
Willingness to travel for events and work flexibly when needed
