Are you looking for an opportunity to gain some work experience? Would you like to see what it’s like to try out different jobs? We know it can sometimes be hard to find a job and volunteering isn’t always practical or affordable, so Brave Island is really excited to have teamed up with a range of different organisations to offer a number of paid placements which will be available over the next two years.
This placement is a six month opportunity hosted by Creative Island, the Island’s Cultural Development Agency. We’re looking for an enthusiastic, organised, and creative individual to join the Creative Island team, supporting the delivery of their exciting digital heritage initiative Curators’ Choice.
Curators’ Choice is a digital storytelling project that aims to shine a light on the Isle of Wight’s heritage by showcasing fascinating artefacts from local museums. Working closely with their Communications Manager Sam, you’ll help bring the Isle of Wight’s rich cultural history to life by supporting marketing and content delivery across digital platforms.

* Assisting with the coordination between Creative Island and participating museums
* Helping to gather and organise research, photos, and stories related to selected artefacts
* Assisting with marketing campaign planning and implementation
* Contributing creative ideas for content and audience engagement
* Supporting on-site during content creation days (when needed)
By getting involved, you could…
* Learn how to effectively communicate with key partners across the heritage sector
* Learning how to effectively pull together all elements of a marketing project including brand identity and assist in delivering the project
* Gain skills across areas such as education, history, outreach, and marketing which you can take forward into future roles
This role will suit you if you…
* Have an interest in marketing, communications, museums, or the creative industries
* Are organised and reliable with strong attention to detail
* Feel comfortable using social media and/or digital tools (or keen to learn)
* Can work well as part of a team
