RMIT Activator. A leader in entrepreneurship education and startups. Who we are and what we do.

RMIT Activator plays a vital role in driving entrepreneurship and innovation across RMIT and beyond. We are a small startup team, living and breathing the entrepreneurial way.

We were created to provide a platform for students to launch startups. We still do that. But now we do much more. We also design and deliver really progressive and cutting-edge educational experiences and products, we support innovation outcomes for commercial clients, and we are slowly but surely pushing entrepreneurship into all corners of RMIT. We are pioneers, and we are ambitious.

Yes, you're still keen? Read on to hear about the role.

The Product and Education team is responsible for designing and delivering entrepreneurship and enterprise related programs and products to a broad set of audiences - current RMIT students and staff, RMIT alumni, commercial clients and fee-paying public.

This role is crucial to the success of the team. You will be a go-to when it comes to facilitating a range of fun and engaging f2f learning experiences. You will be challenged and supported to adopt the latest educational philosophies and approaches to be a master at your craft. You will strive to foster complex capabilities - such as critical thinking, adversity intelligence, collaboration - through thoughtful facilitation and workshop design.

There will also be opportunities to co-design educational programs, build new educational product and experiment with new learning experience designs as a part of team of go-getters and educators.

Ok, and then there's you.

Ideally the classroom will be your happy place. A place of comfort.

You will have experience in designing and delivering learning experiences to a range of audiences. You will also have experience across both the private and university sectors. You may in fact have formal teaching experience, too.

You will have a thirst for improvement and bring with you an iterative, lean product development mindset. You will be great at giving and receiving feedback and always looking to take your game to the next level.

You're passionate about learning (first) and entrepreneurship (second).

Fun, energetic and enthusiastic, you enjoy taking on complex tasks and 'making it happen'. You are happy to go that extra mile.

You believe in the power of education and you genuinely want to better prepare students for a complex future world. And you're interested in what that world looks like and feels like.

Oh, and before you go.

You'll be joining a flexible, open and encouraging environment. We work hard and are passionate about what we do. But we also really value side hustles, personal projects and creative outlets - that makes us who we are. We will invest in your success and you'll be supported to pursue your areas of interests. Sound good? We'd love to have you on board.

How to apply?

Please send us a CV, cover letter telling us about yourself and your experience, and how this experience will set you up for success in this role.
