We're recruiting a Communications and Marketing Officer to help us deliver vibrant engaging communications for our National Trust places in Herefordshire. Content generation is endless with so much to write about with castles, hill forts, historic houses, gardens and acres of countryside with so much access to nature. If you're passionate about social media and want to use those skills for a great cause, then this is the role for you.

You'll be part of a team that covers Herefordshire. Your contractual location will therefore be dependent on the closest National Trust property to your home, that can accommodate you. Your contractual location will be flexible, across the Herefordshire portfolio.

Reporting to the Experience & Visitor Programming Manager, you'll work as part of the Experiences team in Herefordshire, to develop and deliver a year-round communications and marketing plan to share great stories from Berrington Hall, Brockhampton, Croft Castle and The Weir Garden. You'll also get opportunities to share content about our countryside places to help supporters find out more about accessing our sites, our conservation work and the experiences on offer for them.

You'll also get to work closely with a variety of staff and volunteers from our conservation and collection teams, outdoors teams and our food and beverage teams.

As well as developing a communications and marketing plan, you'll be working with the experiences team and regional Communications and Marketing Consultant to share stories about our places by driving relevant digital content, managing our web content, social media channels, press stories and supporting internal communications to our staff and volunteers.

If you're enthusiastic about sharing stories and creating content and have some experience in the following, we'd love to hear from you: 

• Developing communications and marketing plans
• Delivering social media campaigns
• Press relations and writing for press
• Working on website content and imagery
• Digital audiences and their needs
