• Assist with other ad hoc administrative and operational tasks as required.

Content, Copywriting & Digital Content Management

• Research and write engaging content relating to film, television, entertainment, arts, culture, events, and related topics.
• Draft and edit website articles, blog posts, entertainment news pieces, event announcements, and other editorial content.
• Manage and maintain website content, ensuring information, articles, event details, and other relevant pages remain accurate, current, and well presented.
• Create compelling copy for social media posts, promotional campaigns, and audience engagement initiatives.
• Support the day-to-day management of social media content, including preparing, organising, scheduling, and publishing approved content across relevant platforms.
• Maintain and support the organisation of a social media and content calendar to ensure consistent and timely communication.
• Repurpose longer-form content into shorter copy suitable for social media and other digital channels.
• Manage the client’s quarterly online newsletter, including planning content, gathering relevant updates, drafting and editing copy, coordinating materials, preparing the newsletter for distribution, and supporting its timely publication.
• Coordinate with the client and relevant stakeholders to gather stories, updates, images, links, event information, and other materials for inclusion in the quarterly newsletter.
• Assist with drafting additional email communications and audience updates as required.
• Proofread and edit content to ensure accuracy, readability, grammar, consistency, and alignment with the client’s tone of voice.
• Research relevant industry developments, releases, events, and cultural topics to identify potential content opportunities.
• Coordinate with the client to gather information, briefs, images, links, and other materials required for content creation.
• Ensure content is engaging, culturally aware, audience-appropriate, and aligned with the client’s brand and objectives.

Qualifications:

Previous experience in administrative support, virtual assistance, content writing, copywriting, digital marketing, communications, journalism, or a related role.

Strong written and verbal English communication skills.

Excellent copywriting, proofreading, and editing abilities.
