Person requirements
This is a really important and varied role, so we'll need you to have skills and attributes like:
· Knowledge of online platforms. Experience in stuff like WordPress, Hootsuite and Mailchimp is important. If you don't know your way around these dashboards yet, an ability to learn fast will be even more important.
· Experience of desktop software. Here we're talking PowerPoint, Word and Excel - you'll need to have used all of these.
· Good knowledge of the digital landscape. Do you know Twitter from Pinterest and could you tell a client what a meme is?
· Some financial awareness / experience - invoicing, quoting and all that.
· Good presentation skills - we’ll help you grow them of course
· Excellent communicator. We need people who know the difference between your and you're and can explain ideas, processes and tactics really simply and effectively in writing, plus communicate with clients and partners on the phone and via email.
· Highly motivated - we’re growing fast
· Strong interpersonal skills – we’re a very tight team so you’ll need to get on with all of us, clients included
· Excellent organiser – you’ll be managing your workload, diary and deadlines so you’ll need to have everything together.
· Most of all you have to have a great sense of humour (god knows you’ll need it!)
