Relationship Officer - Marketing Assistant Victoria, England
Job description
About Us:
THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM
Innovation and Change in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where people use their vision and commitment to open doors for the next generations.
Nothing beats the feeling of helping someone find their passion. At Westminster City Council, our City Lions team helps young local people engage with culture, creativity and dreams. When they came across a lonely, isolated 16-year-old who called himself a failure, they knew what to do. They worked 1-2-1 to find the thing this boy really loved. YouTube, it turned out. But it’s impossible to turn that into a career, right? Wrong. A week later, he was enrolled on the British Film Institute film-making programme. It was the ultimate light-bulb moment. And it turned him into what he is today – a budding Spielberg with a world of opportunity at his feet.
The Role:
As Relationship Officer - Marketing Assistant, you can make your own powerful contribution to innovative projects that will transform the wellbeing of communities across Westminster. Our ambitious Sport, Leisure and Active Communities team are pioneers of projects and programmes to improve the health of people who live, work and study in Westminster. Their diversity of experience and creativity of thought makes for creative approaches to enhancing local lives. It’s essential for us to market and communicate these opportunities effectively to the community – and that’s where you come in.
You’ll assist with initiating, developing and managing accessible communication of health and wellbeing activities, projects and consultations through a range of different marketing channels, as part of marketing campaigns. We’ll look to you to assist with writing, commissioning and editing all kinds of communications – from consultation and engagement material, newsletters and promotional material, through to social media content. Analysing the performance of our social media feeds, you’ll assist with making recommendations on how to improve the reach and appeal of our content. Helping to manage the ActiveWestminster website, you’ll keep it up to date with relevant content and measure its effectiveness using analytics. You’ll also help to produce compelling imagery and content plans. Along the way, you’ll collaborate with a range of partners and stakeholders.
About You:
With experience of design, digital communications and an understanding of website development, you’ll demonstrate knowledge of content strategies to suit diverse audiences. You appreciate what goes into gathering insights, promoting products and services effectively, including adjusting messages to fit different audiences and channels. Experience of managing consultation and engagement, social media channels and websites would be a real advantage, as would experience of producing engaging and persuasive content for both print and digital publications. We expect you to be organised, with the ability to prioritise and manage multiple projects. Equally important in this role will be a great way with people.
What We Offer:
Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster.

A Fairer Westminster is one in which our communities are at the heart of our decision-making and help to determine the city’s future.
