You will have a creative spark and will relish forming your own content, whether web based or in hard copy, and the talent to write well and create quality images and videos. Training for the role will be provided but some previous experience of events, web, social media or video would be an advantage. We operate in a very beautiful part of the world, but it is essential that you have a car, a full driving license and a genuine love of the countryside, since you will be required to visit people and locations in the area and the Director’s house is high up in the Black mountains near Hay on Wye. The ideal candidate will either live in or have local connections to Hay-on-Wye/Hereford but accommodation may also be provided if this isn't the case. If you think you have what it takes, please apply now! Job Types: Full-time, Permanent Salary: From £27,000 per year + accommodation if required
