Job description

Deadline: 18 August 2025 at 10:00

Autumn Voices seeks a freelance Online Content Co-ordinator, for events promotion, technical management of online sessions, and updating online content.

Autumn Voices seeks to appoint a freelance Online Content Co-ordinator (OCC), with responsibility for promotion of events, technical management of online sessions, and updating our online content, in relation to our new writing project LETTING GO.

LETTING GO is a programme of creative writing activities for older people, supported by the Creative Scotland Open Fund for Organisations. Activities will be facilitated by four Online Writers-in-Residence (OWRs). Working consecutively, each OWR will present four online sessions – a reading or presentation for an audience of up to 100, and three writing workshops, for a cohort of up to twelve. We will publish an anthology featuring a new piece of writing commissioned from each OWR, and texts submitted by workshop participants. The anthology will be published online and in print, as a free newspaper. The project concludes in June 2026 with a public, hybrid Round Table event in Stirling, with the four OWRs and other speakers reflecting on the project, and considering more broadly the issue of older people's creativity.

The OCC's role covers:
~ promoting programmed writing sessions and the project more generally via our website, monthly newsletter and social media channels, and other relevant outlets;
assisting OWRs with the technical aspects of the online sessions;
~ ensuring commissioned texts, and work by session participants, are presented online accurately and attractively, and promoted to ensure as wide a readership as possible.

Work will take place between September 2025 and June 2026.

Fee: £2500 (based on an average of 10 hours per month for 10 months @ £25 per hour)

To apply please send a letter outlining your interest in the project, and highlighting relevant experience (up to 500 words); a CV (max. 3 A4 pages); an indication of your availability between September 2025 and June 2026.

The deadline is Monday 18 August 2025 at 10:00.
