Overview
We are seeking a talented, driven Digital Marketing Coordinator to join our team in Cairns. With a zest for social media, content creation and storytelling, you will be comfortable developing and implementing engaging and effective campaigns as well as being behind and in front of the camera. Organised and self-motivated, you will thrive in a fast-paced environment, using your initiative and time management skills to deliver high-quality outcomes for the agency and its clients while also lending a hand with in-house videography, photography and the occasional layout tweak in Adobe CC.
Joining a well-established team of marketers, designers, videographers and web developers, you will coordinate and arrange digital marketing components. This means you will be well-versed in harnessing social media platforms – particularly Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest and LinkedIn. As a proficient copywriter, you will be comfortable developing engaging content to support our web development and SEO projects. You'll also know your way around a camera, capturing and editing short-form videos in Premiere Pro, CapCut, Insta (or similar), and you won't shy away from polishing a graphic in Photoshop, Figma or Illustrator when the brief calls for it.
We are committed to Forte Marketing's continual growth, including our team's professional and personal development. We are proud to have built a business made up of hardworking individuals who succeed as a collective and individually. Whether networking, professional training, or learning in-house, we believe in continual improvement and ambition to reach goals and flourish.
Why work with us?
We are a specialist marketing and web development agency with studios in Cairns and Melbourne with a versatile approach to business and a complementary sense of humour. We are collaborative and creative, sharing ideas and workshopping challenges to ensure our clients receive great work and outcomes.
You will be working with marketing, creative and web professionals who have extensive experience both agency and client side.
With a thirst to be different and to stand out, we like to create unique and compelling work that gets our clients noticed for the right reasons.
Essential skills you will bring to our team
Helping our clients connect with their customers, you will have a natural ability to develop content and campaigns that resonate with the target audience, whilst delivering outstanding results. As the digital world evolves continuously, your thirst for knowledge ensures you utilise the best platform or channel to ensure campaigns are seen in all the right places.
Now more than ever, content in all formats must captivate audiences, whether through reels, blogs, or EDMs. Your ability to write compelling content while navigating the requirements of algorithms is a must.
Comfortable supporting our lead videographer on shoots including setting up lighting, managing still-photography sessions and stepping in as a reliable second-camera operator when needed but also confident jumping into editing tools to trim, colour-grade and resize footage for both social media snippets and longer form edits.
