Marketing Volunteer for environmental charity

What will you be doing?

We are a small team of passionate and dedicated part time staff working across a range of projects. We are looking for some regular operational support and capacity to help us with our marketing, communications and social media campaigns on the projects we are co-ordinating. 

We understand that you may not have all of these skills listed so we are likely to be looking for a couple of people to help us out. Just let us know if you feel you have something to contribute.

We are looking for people with any of the following areas of expertise to help us engage the local communities: marketing, communications, social media marketing and content creation, website content management, communications strategies, graphic design and market research.

The basic needs are to increase our marketing profile and activity, create content for social media channels and understand the local community better in terms of their experience of our interventions.

What are we looking for?

• You are likely to have substantial experience (and possibly qualifications) in any of the areas: online and offline marketing, digital campaigning, marketing and web content design and creation, market research, data gathering, survey monkey. 
• You will be able to communicate well and have a drive to move our projects forward. 
• You may have existing working relationships in the Birmingham area.
• You are able to work to work within a multi-disciplinary team of part-time staff and volunteers.
• You may have a background or interest in Birmingham and/or the environmental and health sectors.
• We are particularly interested in people who are committed to sustainable living or who want to find out more about it.

What difference will you make?

We are a small organisation with a range of skills but need additional support and guidance to grow the organisation, maximise our impact and improve its long term resilience. 

We are excited about our future and the impact we could make. Your input will help to improve our long term resilience and allow the delivery of projects to continue. This will, in turn, allow us to help more people to take positive action toward living more sustainably and healthily. This includes supporting people to learn to ride and maintain cycles, grow their own food, gain volunteering experience, teach more young people about living sustainably, becoming more active and helping organisations to alter their behaviour towards being more sustainable.

As a small organisation, the support we receive from our volunteers and management committee is extremely valued and intrinsic to our success.
