About the region:

The Torres Strait Islands are located in Far North Queensland, scattered between Cape York Peninsula and Papua New Guinea. With beautiful, untouched beaches, a visit to the Torres Strait Islands will make you think you've left Australia for another Pacific Island paradise. The surrounding reefs create diverse habitats for several sea turtle species and the strong currents provide excellent fishing opportunities. Flights to the islands leave Cairns every day.

Torres Strait Island Regional Council (TSIRC) prides itself on being an employer of choice. TSIRC is one of two local councils found in the Torres Strait and represents 15 'outer' island communities each with its own unique characteristics and service requirements.

  • Demonstrated understanding of regional events market and the economic value and opportunity of events in the LGA.
  • Experience in administering funding programs and associated communications.
  • Experience in event management, support or promotion.
  • A current (open and unrestricted) Queensland Driver's Licence.
