We’d love to hear from you if you have:

• PR or communications experience, ideally within an agency environment

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone with energy, ownership and a can-do mindset who wants to learn, contribute and grow with us.

Why The Connect Agency?

We’re a close-knit, ambitious team based in Terrigal on the NSW Central Coast, working on national campaigns without the Sydney commute.

Our clients span entertainment, toys and family, consumer lifestyle, talent and pop culture, and no two days are quite the same.

You’ll join a supportive team where ideas are encouraged, people are given opportunities to grow, and everyone plays a role in delivering great work.

We’re proud of the culture we’re building: fast-paced but supportive, ambitious but down-to-earth, and always looking for smarter and more creative ways to work.

If you’re a PR professional living on the Central Coast or you’re ready to swap the Sydney commute for agency life by the beach we’d love to hear from you.

We are also open to a 4 day per week hire for the right candidate.
