Fairtrade is a dynamic, consumer driven, international movement. It links disadvantaged producers in developing countries with businesses and consumers in the developed world.

The internationally recognised Fairtrade system is delivering benefits to disadvantaged producers throughout the developing world.

The Marketing & Communications Officer will manage a diversity of tasks across media, marketing, events, campaigns and communications to grow the fair trade movement and market in Australia.
