Location: Sydney Hybrid + On-Site Delivery

Contract Type: Per Retreat Engagement

Reports to: Founder & Creative Director, Mandi Gunsberger

About Nourish Travel

Nourish Travel curates luxury, soul-filled retreats in extraordinary locations across Australia and

around the world. We collaborate with inspiring hosts, from media leaders and entrepreneurs to

chefs and wellness experts, to create unforgettable experiences centred on connection, creativity and rejuvenation.

As our retreat calendar expands, we are building a network of experienced Retreat Producers who can take ownership of individual retreats and bring them to life with calm precision and exceptional attention to detail.

The Role: Retreat Producer

As Retreat Producer, you are responsible for delivering one Nourish Travel retreat from

post-launch through to guest departure.

You take operational ownership of the retreat so the Founder can focus on creative direction, partnerships, marketing and host relationships.

You ensure every detail is thoughtfully executed and every moving part runs seamlessly behind the scenes.

This is a project-based contract role, engaged per retreat.

Scope of Responsibilities

Pre-Retreat Production

• Ensure booking forms, payments and guest data are complete and accurate
• Anticipate operational risks and proactively resolve issues
• Prepare final confirmation packs and on-site documentation

On-Site Delivery (if contracted to attend)

• Oversee bump-in and setup
• Act as primary operational lead during the retreat
• Coordinate venue teams and suppliers
• Support host requirements and schedule flow
• Troubleshoot calmly and professionally

• Comfortable managing timelines, suppliers and moving parts
• Passionate about creating meaningful, high-touch experiences

Experience with tools such as Google Workspace, Notion, Canva, Airtable and booking systems
