🌾 Want to learn what goes into running a country show?
The Boonah Show Society is looking for a young person to work alongside our Show Coordinator and become part of the team behind the annual Boonah Show.
We’re looking for someone who is comfortable with technology, keen to learn, organised and interested in volunteering in their local community.
This is a volunteer, unpaid role, starting soon and building up as we get closer to Show time.
You’ll get hands-on experience across many parts of planning and delivering a country show, including event organisation, administration, communications, technology, coordinating activities and all the behind-the-scenes work that brings a Show together.
It could be a great opportunity for someone interested in event planning, event management, agriculture, community organisations or communications who would like some practical experience to add to their portfolio or résumé.
You don’t need to know how to run a Show. That’s the point. You’ll be working alongside people who can show you how it all comes together.
Most importantly, we’re looking for someone reliable, willing to learn and happy to become part of a friendly volunteer team.
