About Us

Are you passionate about bringing bold, beautiful ideas to life? At WRAP, we collaborate with artists, architects, government agencies, and communities to create art projects that inspire, delight, and spark reflection. We're looking for a dynamic Project Coordinator who thrives at the intersection of creativity and organisation to join our team on a 12 month contract with opportunity to extend.

This hybrid role blends design expertise, project coordination, and high level communication skills. You'll be working at the heart of our practice — helping us to deliver client presentations, prepare artist briefs, support project delivery, and ensure that everything we do is connected and purposeful. You’ll be comfortable wearing many hats, from reading architectural drawings and developing presentation packs to liaising with artists and fabricators and coordinating budgets and timelines.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a background in art, design, or project management who's ready to grow and work across public art, artist services, and collections management.

Remuneration: Equivalent to $70,000-75,000 + superannuation, pro-rated to 4 days per week.
