Fringe Benefits
As forward-thinking, creative and inclusive organisation, there’s loads of great benefits of working at Melbourne Fringe. We believe that great work is made by people who enjoy what they do. We have a social culture (think: shared lunches, Friday drinks, good vibes) and employees get opportunities to learn and grow, enjoy themselves (and enjoy free tickets along the way!).
Here are some of the benefits of working at Melbourne Fringe:
- Flexible working arrangements (we work from home every Thursday, every second Wednesday, and sometimes at other times too)
- A generous personal leave policy that covers physical and mental health, menstrual and menopausal leave, gender affirmation leave, disability leave, bereavement leave and cultural leave
- Best practice parental leave policy (12 weeks’ paid leave for primary or secondary carers)
- An Employee Assistance Program counselling service
- Sector leading professional development programs with both individualised and group learning opportunities
- No Meetings Thursdays (seriously, it’s the best)
- A workplace that encourages people to bring their whole selves to the office.
We aim to be a force for positivity in the world, working to create a more creative, healthy, cohesive society. We have created a fast paced, ambitious work culture that values continual improvement and making seemingly impossible things happen on limited resources in a workplace characterised by big-picture thinking, optimism and playfulness
