About TILDE

TILDE is one of the few trans and gender diverse film festivals in the world, and the only one in the southern hemisphere. TILDE’s 2024 festival attracted its largest in-person audience to date and featured 24 films, including multiple world, international, and Australian premieres. Currently auspiced by Footscray Community Arts, TILDE’s application for DGR status is underway.

About the Role

We are seeking a Secretary to coordinate TILDE’s administrative and governance processes. This includes maintaining records, ensuring compliance with legal obligations, and supporting the board by preparing agendas, minutes, and key documentation.

While the Secretary is not a Board member, they work closely with the Board to ensure efficient communication and organisational oversight. This is a volunteer position, with an estimated commitment of 6-10 hours per month.

Who we’re looking for

We welcome applicants who are organised and detail-oriented, with experience in administration and/or governance. The ideal candidate will be a self-starter, comfortable using online systems, have strong communication skills, and be able to manage information efficiently. 

You don’t need to have a background in film or festivals (and you don’t need to be trans) but you do need to have a solid understanding of trans and gender-expansive experiences, or a genuine willingness to learn.
