Communications & Marketing Officer – Content Creation

We're looking for a talented Communications & Marketing Officer - Content Creation to join our Communications team. This is an exciting opportunity to help shape how we communicate with residents, stakeholders and partners, promoting the Council's services, achievements and events across a variety of channels.

Experience in content creation, media relations, social media communications and/or visual design.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
