Social Media and Content Producer
At Energy Systems Catapult we're looking for a Social Media and Content Producer to join our Marketing and Communications team.
About The Job
Want to help shape the story of how the UK builds a cleaner, fairer energy system? And, support the innovative new businesses to launch their products and services to achieve that? We're looking for a curious, organised and creative Social Media and Content Producer to join our Marketing and Communications (MarComms) team at Energy Systems Catapult.
This isn't a "schedule a few posts and go home" role. You'll take complex ideas from the worlds of science, data and R&D and turn them into content people want to stop and watch, read and share. One day you'll be writing a sharp LinkedIn post about a breakthrough clean-tech business, the next you'll be cutting a short video, turning a heavy dataset into a digestible animation, or helping produce our brand-new podcast.
Life in our team
You'll join a friendly, nine person MarComms team who look out for each other, share the load and pull together to hit our deadlines. As a team, we’re super-supportive of each other, and we firmly believe great work comes from a joyful environment. (We’re the noisy always laughing team.)
You'll get support when you need it and plenty of chances to bring your own ideas to the table.
Key Work Activities
Do you want to join our team as our new Social Media and Content Producer? Then we'd love to hear about you!
We encourage early applications, as this vacancy may close before the advertised closing date if a high number of applications are received.
