It's changing lives and transforming an industry. People join Halter to do meaningful work.

ABOUT THE ROLE We're looking for an Events Specialist who's great at doing one thing above all else: making things happen. This role is about rolling up your sleeves and delivering events that connect with Australian cattle and dairy farmers in ways that feel real, not corporate. You'll work across a range of different kinds of events, and all of them matter equally. On one side: scrappy, rep-led grassroots events alongside our Territory Managers - think farm BBQs, pub shouts, small on-farm gatherings, where the whole point is trust, not polish. On the other: our biggest national and high-profile events, where Halter needs to show up with genuine power and stand out from everyone else in the room. You'll support both, and everything in between, learning when an event needs to be unpolished and authentic, and when it needs to be premium and unmissable. This role involves regular travel around the country for events, and requires a full driver's licence. WHAT THE ROLE LOOKS LIKE - Supporting grassroots, rep-led events at scale working closely with our sales team, you'll help support the team running frequent events that build trust on the ground - farm BBQs, open days, welcome events. You'll make sure every one is tracked, lead-gen is captured, and TMs feel genuinely supported rather than left to organise it themselves. - Supporting national and high-profile events. You'll play a hands-on role in our biggest brand moments - the events built to make Halter stand out at scale. This means logistics, supplier coordination, on-the-ground execution, and making sure every detail holds up to the standard these events demand. - Execution and logistics. You'll own the details that make events run smoothly: venue bookings, supplier coordination, travel and accommodation, merch and signage. On event days, you'll be on the ground handling setup, registrations, and troubleshooting whatever comes up. You'll also run pre- and post-event comms including invitations, reminders, follow-ups, surveys, working with the content team to make sure everything's clear, accurate, and on-brand. - Working cross-functionally. You'll work closely with Territory Managers, sales, and the wider marketing team to keep everyone aligned and prepared. That means making sure sales understands the purpose of each event, marketing has what they need to support you, and information flows clearly so nothing falls through the cracks. - Tracking results. You'll help track event outcomes: registrations, attendance, pipeline impact, and pull together feedback and learnings to make the next event better than the last. WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR - Ready to roll up your sleeves. You enjoy getting into the details and making things happen. Organised, reliable, and you take ownership of your work without needing to be chased. - A clear and confident communicator. You're comfortable talking to anyone. Territory Managers, suppliers, farmers at a BBQ, or a stakeholder at a national event. Friendly, practical, and you ask questions when something's unclear rather than guessing. - Keen to learn and grow. You're building a career, and you want the range: grassroots and high-production. You take feedback well and are motivated to keep getting better. There's a real path here to grow into a more senior role as you build that range. - Calm and capable. You stay level-headed when plans change or something goes wrong on the day. You're solutions-oriented, know when to escalate, and help the team keep moving. OUR BENEFITS - Delicious snacks and drinks are available for your daily flow. - Healthy body, healthy mind. We're partnered with Southern Cross Health Insurance to support your well-being. - We offer 6 months of fully paid parental leave for primary caregivers, 4 weeks of fully paid secondary caregiver leave and many other parental benefits that support you and your family. - Our personal growth is important. Halter offers an annual $1000 self-development budget to be used for anything that fuels personal growth. - Our time to recharge is valued, we're offered wellness leave and unlimited paid annual leave. - Importantly, we offer an inclusive and attractive remuneration package made up of salary, benefits and an employee stock ownership plan. OUR OFFICE FIRST APPROACH Humans are wired for connection. Being office first is a core pillar of our culture because in-person connections drive your growth, learning, impact, and relationships. Strong relationships make it easier to disagree, give feedback, and do meaningful work together. We're office first, not office only. Working from the office is our default, but we flex when needed. We have a high-trust culture where everyone is trusted to do what's best for Halter. Our office vibe is special, the high energy and spectacular people make work enjoyable. Your growth and impact are unlimited here, coming from solving problems, innovating, and constantly learning from each other. HALTER IN AUSTRALIA Halter entered Tasmania two years ago and has rapidly expanded to now have 20% of the state's dairy herd with Halter - a thriving customer base managed by a talented, local team. Halter recently entered Queensland and NSW, and now has a growing team and customer base across both states. In Victoria and South Australia, Halter is preparing to launch operations following recent regulatory approval for virtual fencing. In Western Australia, Halter does not yet have customers. In these states there is a groundswell of demand for Halter across thousands of farmers. In Australia, virtual fencing is regulated by individual states' animal welfare legislation. Until recently, several states had legislation that did not permit farmers to use high-quality virtual fencing technology. With NSW parliament's announcement regulating virtual fencing, and Victoria and South Australia following suit, these barriers are now lifting. JOIN OUR TEAM Halter is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive workplace — a place where we can each be ourselves and do the best work of our lives. Research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the requirements, women and under-represented groups of candidates tend to only apply when they meet every requirement.
