  • Have experience of scoping and delivering projects.
  • Be an excellent communicator; with the Board, the Tech team and the community.
  • Write excellent copy.
  • Think creatively to identify new areas of growth.



What we would like to see:


  • Experience growing and nurturing a community.
  • Ability to network with gravitas, acting as a well-known presence within your industry.
