About the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia

NFSA’s purpose is to tell the national story in all its rich diversity by collecting, preserving and sharing audiovisual media, via the cultural experience platforms of our time. In 2021, items from the collection were viewed more than 121 million times across the country, making it one of the nation’s most vital and utilised cultural resources.

The institution is investing in a comprehensive digital transformation program, during which more of the items in our care will be digitised for preservation and once digitised, become more readily searchable and accessible by all Australians. A core component of the transformation program will be building national audiences for the collection through improved online services and content offerings that will be brought alive through a compelling, relevant and dynamic institutional voice.

In addition, you will have strong client service, communication skills and a commitment to producing quality outcomes.

This position is within the Access section’s Rights and Distribution team, located in the Sydney (Pyrmont) office. The position will involve significant interaction with other NFSA teams particularly members of the Access Services, Curatorial and Communication & Marketing teams.
