Volunteer Comms Strategists and PR Managers for Environmental Charity | East London Waterworks Park
East London Waterworks Park is looking for comms strategists and PR managers to help grow our audiences.
What difference will you make?
Contribute to the creation of a new biodiverse community-owned park with free access natural swimming ponds. Your strategic communication will be instrumental in fostering a strong connection between our community, the park, and its biodiversity. Your input will help us craft compelling narratives that inspire, educate, and engage our service users, stakeholders, funders, and the general public, ultimately driving support for the park's mission and ensuring its long-term sustainability.
What are we looking for?
You should be experienced in implementing effective strategic communications, managing media relations, and social media platforms by creating engaging content, and building online communities. Strong writing and editing skills for various materials including press releases and social media posts. Comfortable with community-led processes. Our roles are quite flexible. We hope that people bring radical imagination, peace with nature, and courageous inclusiveness to the role.
What will you be doing?
East London Waterworks Park is a charity that has raised £2m towards buying land from the Department for Education to transform the 14-acre Thames Water Depot on Lea Bridge Road on the border of Waltham Forest and Hackney, into a new biodiverse park with natural swimming ponds, forest schools, and community spaces. We are looking for communications strategists and PR to participate in our community-led working group who are promoting public awareness and support of the project. There is opportunity to lead on projects across communications, content creation, social media, PR, newsletters, film, podcasts, or any other channels of interest, and facilitate the direction of the working group. The Comms Circle currently meets fortnightly on a Tuesday evening on Google Meet and spends voluntary time outside of the meeting completing agreed tasks remotely.
