Job description
Our members and supporters are at the heart of everything we do. In the Content and Publishing team we want everyone to feel welcome and enjoy access to our places. We are looking for an Assistant Content Producer to help us communicate the cause and purpose of the National Trust, reaching our audience in ways that are meaningful and relevant to them.
This is a fixed term contract due to end when the previous employee returns from maternity leave. At this point we cannot confirm exactly how long this contract will last, but it is unlikely to be more than 12 months.

Your contractual location will be our head office in Swindon, however there will be an opportunity to explore and agree hybrid working arrangements which strike the right balance for you and the Trust. The role will involve travel to our head office to meet with stakeholders and to carry out work.
What you'll be doing:As part of the national Content and Publishing team, you’ll be responsible for the planning, commissioning, production and evaluation of content to deliver our business objectives to grow audience recognition, relevance, engagement and advocacy. You’ll create content across multiple channels including the National Trust website, email and YouTube.
You’ll use your skills to deploy outstanding editorial skills to inspire audiences to support our cause. You’ll take an audience-first approach, delivering work that fits audience and channel requirements. Working with stakeholders from across the organisation, you’ll be an expert voice on content, championing inclusivity in everything you do and sharing holistic content recommendations.
