Softball New Zealand is looking for someone creative, proactive and full of ideas to help bring our game to life.

We’re not looking for someone to simply wait for content to land in their inbox. We want someone who will find the stories, create the content and make things happen. Someone prepared to have a little fun, try new things and occasionally push the boundaries of what you might expect from a national sporting organisation.

The role is flexible and part-time, with hours increasing during the busiest part of our domestic season. Attendance will also be required at selected Softball NZ tournaments and events.

Softball experience is preferred, but not essential. Creativity, personality, initiative and a willingness to get amongst our community matter just as much as what’s on your CV.

Send your CV and cover letter to [email protected]
Find more information at www.softball.org.nz/get-involved
Applications close 5pm on Friday 18th September 🗓️
