We are looking for an experienced arts marketing professional or agency to create and enact a marketing and communications plan to get our message about the impact of inclusive music making out to music tutors and educators, the wider arts and music education sectors and services for children and young people and funders.
You will use our existing brand and website but find exciting and creative ways to develop communications around it.
It is expected that this will involve; public relations (regional, trade); design and print (including establishing brand guidelines); social media; event management, and liaison with schools, music hubs and other organisations across Hertfordshire, Essex and Cambridgeshire.

• A proven record in the planning and delivery of communications and marketing work
• Understanding of the local authority context for this work
• An understanding of the arts education sector and preferably of the inclusive music education sector
• IT skills associated with marketing and social media: Word, WordPress, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram etc.
• Capacity to take this on between August 2015 and March 2016 (with the possibility for further work over the following two years)
We will offer:
• A opportunity to work on an innovative project
• Induction and support from a multi-disciplinary team
• CPD opportunities
• Fee of £8000, with additional funding for materials
If called for interview, we’ll invite you to give a 10-minute proposal on how you’ll put together the marketing plan with resources available.
