Luminary

Luminary Brighter digital experiences đź’ˇ Luminary is a great place to work. How do we know? In fact, we have people who have chosen to stay with our team for over a decade.

Because once people start working at Luminary they generally don’t want to leave! Their number one reason? Because they keep loving what they do. Here are some other reasons to come and join the Luminary team. We do as we say
-----------------------
Like most workplaces we have a number of values that underpin the way we go about what we do. But how do you make words like Family, Fun, Integrity an

d Quality into something that makes a difference to the work you do every day? These aren’t listed on the wall like some abstract art. Instead they represent who we are or who we are striving to be. Family to us means thinking people first, in every situation. There’s no point working everyone to the bone to deliver a project on time, if at the end of it no-one wants to come to work the next day! That’s how Luminary is different. The right culture
----------------------
We believe that people should be treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their position, approach, skills or background. We have fostered a culture that focuses on each other, meaning the team is always priority #1. Sure, there are sometimes hiccups. However our approach is that anything can be resolved with communication, and so we encourage everyone to communicate often and early. Office space
-----------------
We love our office. We’re based over two levels in the Melbourne CBD, right in the heart of the action. With a fully stocked kitchen, daily breakfast, real coffee on tap, soft drink in the fridge and all you can eat fruit we’re pretty comfortable! We make sure the two levels come together often, so everyone still feels part of the team. In fact, sometimes you can get a great workout running up and down those stairs! Socially active team
---------------------------
Everyone loves a party, and we have a few! Once a month we let our hair down, with some kind of awesome activity. One month could be trampolining, the next could be poker. Regardless of what it may be, it’s a great opportunity to let your hair down and get to know your co-workers. Every Friday afternoon (after our internal training and development sessions) we have a beer to celebrate the week and start the weekend off right. And most importantly, once a month we have lunch with the entire team. We like to spend time together, and we create plenty of opportunities to do just that. Continual improvement
-------------------------------
We’re always looking for ways to improve, and we believe there is no better way to do that than with ongoing training and development. So we provide plenty of opportunities to learn new things. Most weeks we have internal training sessions, on topics that vary wildly. There’s always something new to learn! We also believe in learning what’s happening in our industry as well, and actively participate in conferences such as Web Directions South, Web Directions Code, and our varying industry associations.

A decade of being a Great Place To Work! The real measure isn't the award itself, but rather the people who have stayed and built something special. We recently spoke to seven of our team members who have been with Luminary for 10+ years, and here is what they had to say about why we are a great place to work! đź«¶

Meet the Luminary team members who've been here for 10 years or more and hear, in their own words, what makes it a great place to work.

As our team laces up for the final weekend of Fred's Big Run, we're feeling grateful to have kept this tradition going for the seventh year. What started as a way to connect us all through lockdown has become an annual celebration supporting the The Fred Hollows Foundation and its vital work treating curable blindness. Here are some of the Luminary team members walking, running and riding their way through the challenge this year.

On Friday, some of our Melbourne team spent the morning at OzHarvest Melbourne whipping up 'Use Them Up Pasties' for Australians experiencing food insecurity.

OzHarvest rescues food with a short use-by date and transforms it into nutritious meals, handing them over to food banks in Victoria. We're always glad to play a small part in that, and our Brisbane and Sydney teams have also rollled up their sleeves to participate in volunteering days too. When a fun team activity also puts food on the table for people across Victoria, that's a win.

Well done team!đź’›

What does it take to build a digital experience for a venue that hosts four million visitors a year, 60+ events, and now a 335% surge in AI-driven traffic? At the Optimizely Digital Summit, our CEO Marty Drill sat down with Sophie Henderson from the Melbourne Cricket Club to talk through the MCG's new website - from a bespoke multi-level wayfinding tool to structuring content for AI agents as much as human fans.

The result has meant fewer complaints, better experiences, and a single source of truth for one of Australia's most iconic venues. Read the full story 👇

At the recent Optimizely Digital Summit, Luminary CEO Marty Drill hosted a fireside chat with Sophie Henderson from the Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) about the MCG’s new website. The conversation offered lessons for anyone managing a digital experience in the modern age.

Fresh from the Optimizely Digital Summit last week, our Strategy Principal and Optimizely rising star Mark MacSmith (in our eyes, at least) has put together a curated shortlist of Opal agents worth trying. With almost 80 Opal agents on offer, knowing where to start is half the battle. Mark has done that thinking for you 👏

We went through Optimizely's Agent Directory and ranked the four agents marketers should be installing right away.

Today is Indonesian Independence Day! Our team across Indonesia are celebrating the day Indonesia proclaimed its independence in 1945, becoming the Republic of Indonesia. Locals mark the occasion in many ways, including community games (think egg and spoon races, a Krupuk eating competition, and a nail fishing game).

This has become a Luminary tradition over the ten years we have had offices in Indonesia, and the 'Independence Games' become more fun each year. Happy Independence Day to our Bali, Jakarta and Surabaya teams — and congrats to Jo, who won his local games! 🇮🇩👏
