Work from home + occasional studio time · 10–15 hours/week · Piercing industry perks included

A creative role where you shape culture — not just content.

Do you dream of being the creative force behind a brand people genuinely love? Are you constantly imagining the perfect post, campaign or caption — before anyone even asks for it?

We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just “do marketing” — but lives and breathes it. Someone who’s ready to bring consistency, creativity and clarity to a brand that already has the legacy — and is now ready for the next chapter.

Who we are

We’re The Piercing Urge, Melbourne’s most established and trusted body piercing studio — proudly serving our community since 1991. We’re known for our precision, safety and quality — and we’ve worked hard to earn that trust over three decades.

This is more than just a piercing studio. It’s a space of self-expression, safety, transformation, and connection. And now, with a loyal client base and bold plans for growth, we’re ready to build a marketing presence that reflects who we really are — and we want you to help us do it.

About the role

We’re looking for a creative, organised and proactive Marketing & Content Coordinator to join us on a casual basis (10–15 hours/week) and work closely with our Director to bring our brand vision forwards.

You'll work mostly from home, but we’re seeking someone Melbourne-based who can occasionally come into the studio to capture content, soak up the vibe, and be part of the story.

This is a great role for someone who wants ownership without overwhelm, and the freedom to bring creativity into everything they do.

What you’ll do

Plan, create and schedule consistent content across Instagram, Facebook and TikTok

Refresh and maintain our brand’s online presence (bios, highlights, pinned posts, etc.)

Manage and build email marketing (ActiveCampaign) — campaigns, automations, and flows

Set up and maintain basic Meta and Google ads, including light testing and optimisation

Monitor performance and report back

Collaborate with the Director to align content with brand voice and goals

Support seasonal campaigns, product launches and service promotions

Build simple, beautiful systems to support your own marketing work

You’ll love this role if you...

Are a natural creative who loves content, storytelling and human connection

Are organised and proactive — you take initiative and follow through

Can work independently but enjoy collaborating to bring ideas to life

Love coming up with bold, fun, original ideas — not just doing what everyone else does

Can balance fun and focus — and bring great energy to everything you create

Know your way around email marketing and social platforms

Would be excited to work in the piercing and body jewellery industry

Want to help a small, values-led business grow — and grow with it

The details

Type: Casual

Hours: 10–15 hours per week (flexible schedule)

Location: Must be Melbourne-based (remote + occasional studio visits)

Pay: $39 p/h

Start date: ASAP

Perks & benefits

We offer the same benefits to this role as we do to our piercers and in-studio team:

Free piercings + wholesale pricing on jewellery

Access to a confidential Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

Optional First Aid and Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) certification — we’ll pay for it if you’d like to add it to your toolkit

Support for professional development — including short courses, seminars, or conferences (within an agreed budget)

And beyond the perks — you’ll be joining a genuinely supportive, slightly chaotic, and incredibly fun team. We take our work seriously, but never ourselves. This is the kind of place where you can be creative, be real, and feel like part of something special. No micromanaging. No ego. Just good people doing great work and having a laugh along the way.

We’re committed to making this a workplace where you feel seen, heard, and trusted. We’ll support your creativity, your curiosity, and your career — and if your work helps our business grow, your role will grow too.
