We’re Hiring: Marketing & Communications Producer
We are looking for a Marketing & Communications Producer! Could it be you…?
As the Marketing & Communications Producer, you’ll be the creative force behind CDS’s digital presence, shaping how we connect with audiences and amplify the work of our vibrant Artist Community. You’ll manage and innovate our busy social media and communication channels, ensuring our reach continues to grow while keeping content fresh, dynamic, and true to our brand. (You’ll also get the chance to rewrite copy like this—so we can find alternatives to words like “fresh”…)
Working within a small but dedicated team, you’ll play a key role in developing and delivering a bold marketing strategy, helping CDS tell its story of past, present, and future. You’ll find playful, inventive ways to share our packed schedule of events and grow our work and collaborations. Beyond promoting what’s happening at CDS, you’ll also support the artists in our community, helping them share their work and initiatives.
This role is all about creativity, connection, and community. If you love storytelling, digital engagement, and bringing ideas to life, we want to hear from you!
All team members at CDS have flexibility and autonomy to make their roles their own, in response to their own practice and to the needs of the organisation and artists that make it up. For this reason, all the current team have independent freelance practices which they sustain concurrently to their role at CDS, which is vital to our artist-led vision important to how we work. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants a part-time role that can enhance their existing freelance work. They might be an artist or marketeer looking to draw together their skills in a new way; an experienced freelancer looking to work in a venue for the first time; or someone with transferable social media and marketing skills that wants to work more directly with artists in a grassroots context.
We’re looking for someone who wants to contribute to making active change in the arts, is eager to work as part of an open, collaborative team and who is excited to put their stamp on the role and the organisation by bringing bold new ideas and approaches to our marketing and social media output.
