Helping everyone make the most of the internet

Digital Marketing Assistant Saturday Job – Full job description

Job Description

Village Web Company CIC builds websites, runs training courses and free activities to develop digital skills and confidence.

As a Digital Marketing Assistant you will be taught how to update and monitor our in house websites and social media accounts, in addition to learning the necessary skills to deliver these activities for other businesses. The ideal candidate for this job will be somebody with an interest in social media, that is willing and able to work independently when necessary.

This is a digital marketing role and will teach you how to use social media platforms on behalf of a small business, including how to monitor the performance of websites and online accounts. You will be taught how social media activity fits into a wider marketing plan and how to create a Content Calendar to help schedule online content. This role also includes helping to maintain our online gift shop.

As part of your “on the job” training, you will be taught how to create content for use on websites, blogs and social media and learn about the importance of accessibility when posting online. Throughout your time here, you will keep a record of your digital marketing journey and create a portfolio of your work, to help showcase your talents and advance your career prospects in the future.

As this is a small business, you must be willing to work flexibly and you will be expected to do work which is not directly connected to digital marketing, such as general admin tasks, dealing with customers and reception duties. You will be provided with full training for any task you are asked to do.

Duties

Helping to create content for social media

Updating and monitoring the performance of existing social media accounts.

General admin tasks such as:

  • Checking and responding to emails
  • Answering phone calls and taking messages when necessary
  • Updating paper based and online systems

Person Specification

This would be an ideal job for somebody that likes social media and has an interest in how it can be used for business. Prior experience of digital marketing is not necessary, as full training will be given, but this role is unlikely to be suitable for somebody that is not comfortable using a smart phone or computer. Must be willing to work as directed for the overall good of the business.

Prior Experience Required

Must be able to use a computer and a smart phone.

Experience of using email would be useful, but not essential.
