This is a fantastic maternity cover opportunity for someone with a passion for culture who is looking to progress their career in marketing by working for a leading cultural organisation.

You will be responsible for marketing at Tate St Ives, developing innovative and creative campaigns that reach a broad and diverse range of audiences and generate revenue. With your established knowledge of the media landscape you will implement multi-channel campaigns, including development of partnerships. With your experience in social media and digital marketing you will collaborate with colleagues to produce content to support the campaigns you are working on.

With the ability to work effectively and collaboratively as part of a team, as well as individually to develop own projects, you will thrive in a very busy environment with patience and empathy even when under pressure. You will have excellent organisational skills, time management skills and an attention to detail, with the ability to work flexibly.
