This role is key to ensuring that the Council's activities are promoted professionally, safely and provide an excellent customer experience. As part of this you will identify new opportunities and ways to continually improve each project.

Working in a fast-paced environment, you will ensure that activities are promoted within deadlines, and that all relevant marketing materials are produced.

Excellent communication and organisational skills, the ability to work independently as well as part of a team are essential. Experience of working to multiple deadlines and within budget are key to this role. The role will require liaison with local community groups, residents and stakeholders, colleagues and committees, to understand the needs of the community and deliver solutions.
