Content Creator

Salary: £29,447 per annum, plus pension contributions of 9% based on 35 hours per week.

Contract: Initially fixed term for 2 years, with the possibility of permanency

Key responsibilities:

• Managing the day-to-day running of our social media channels.
• Planning and creating social media content, with a focus on video, to support the Trust’s objectives and communication strategies.
• Liaising with staff from across the Trust to understand the scope of our work and ensure that project communication requirements are fulfilled.
• Communicating effectively and consistently with staff and other key stakeholders to ensure engagement remains high and the impact of social media is clearly understood.
• Identifying opportunities to widen our reach and impact, from working with influencers to developing a Cumbria Wildlife Trust presence on new channels.

Person Profile:

Our ideal candidate is someone who can work collaboratively and independently as required. One day, you might be out and about across Cumbria gathering content with project teams, and the next you’ll be in the office putting together videos and infographics. You’ll need to coordinate with staff across the organisation, as well as manage relationships with external organisations and influencers. 

You’ll have a strong understanding of what makes great social media content and the ability to tap into what’s trending in a smart, relevant way. You’ll also need to be great at explaining your ideas – from the serious to the silly – and getting people involved. We’re looking for someone with tons of creativity and the confidence to bring fresh ideas to the table. 

You’ll work closely with our Digital Engagement Manager and will have access to a training budget to help improve your skills.
