An opportunity has arisen for two full-time Content Officers to join Royal Holloway’s Marketing Group at a time of exciting growth.
The Marketing Group creatively brings to life Royal Holloway’s stories; both to engage and bring in new students and showcase the University on the global stage. By creating and distributing (primarily written) audience-focused content that supports both our academic strengths and student experience offer, these two brand new roles will expand our capacity to tell that story at a key time for the University following the launch of our new strategy, RH2030s.
The right candidates will have proven experience of working in a communications or marketing environment, of research and writing long and short form copy, and knowledge of digital channels as well as an understanding of accessibility and SEO principles. They’ll be used to conveying complex subject matter in interesting and understandable ways as part of a wider content plan.
If you’re a great communicator with strong attention to detail, who is able to manage multiple projects and enjoys working both alone and with people, we’d like to hear from you.
In return we offer a highly competitive rewards and benefits package including:
Generous annual leave entitlement
Training and Development opportunities
Pension Scheme with generous employer contribution
Various schemes including Cycle to Work, Season Ticket Loans and help with the cost of Eyesight testing.
