About Reground

Reground is a waste education service committed to changing behaviour around waste. We believe waste is a resource. We collect coffee, chaff, and soft plastics from cafes, offices, retail stores, and roasteries in Melbourne and are actively engaged in changing systems around waste through both applied solutions and advocacy work. We have diverted over 900,000 kilos of coffee from landfill to community and home gardeners and helped businesses and households move closer to being waste-free. We also work closely with councils, state government, and large commercial sites consulting on best waste practices and waste avoidance. We are a small and impactful team, excited to welcome a new Admin and Communications Assistant to the team.

About the Role

As Reground’s Admin and Communications Assistant you will manage and create content for Reground’s social media, e-newsletters, and website. Enquiries are hitting Reground’s inbox all the time which will need your attention. You will also provide administrative and communications support to Reground’s Collections and Consultancy teams.

Work will vary depending on the projects we have so you will need to be agile and flexible. You will work creatively and collaboratively with the Reground team, clients and other partners, so being a people person capable of engaging with a variety of different collaborators is a must. Most importantly you will have exemplary written and verbal communication skills.

Familiarity with Adobe Creative Suite, Squarespace, and Google Suite is highly advantageous.

This role is currently 4 days a week, but we are open to other arrangements. We have flexible working arrangements so you will be based partly at our office in Alphington and at home, completing off-site work as required by projects. You will need to live in Melbourne.
