In preparation for 2026, AFL Queensland is calling on Game Development Officers to join the team on a casual basis.
About The Role
In regional areas across QLD, AFL participation continues to grow and we're looking for energetic people to help us build connections and inspire the next generation.
We're committed to child safety, diversity, and inclusion. Candidates must hold (or be willing to obtain) a valid Working with Children Check (Blue Card), and we strongly encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and individuals from diverse backgrounds.

* Are studying education, sport science, or youth work and want hands‑on experience.
* Are parents, carers, or anyone looking for flexible, meaningful work.
* Are seeking a career change that keeps them active and connected to their community.
* Want to give back and help kids build confidence and friendships through sport.
What You'll Be Doing

* Supporting community events and game days, creating positive experiences for kids and families.
* Championing inclusion, working on programs that support multicultural communities, girls in sport, Indigenous programs, and kids of all abilities.
Role Type and Hours
This is a casual role, perfect for those who thrive in dynamic, community‑focused environments. Hours vary depending on program periods, with a mix of short, two‑hour sessions and longer blocks during peak periods.

* Strong communicators who can engage with schools and families.
* Reliable, independent, and proactive when working solo.
* Open to learning new skills and AFL activities.
