Job Summary
Job Description
The Fiorentini Foundation is seeking an enthusiastic and proactive PR & Marketing Trustee to help us raise the profile of the charity and the work we do. We have inspiring stories to tell, talented young people to celebrate and several performances, fundraising campaigns and events throughout the year. What we currently lack is the dedicated time and PR expertise to make the most of these opportunities. This is a voluntary, unpaid Trustee position and would particularly suit someone with experience in PR, communications, journalism, media or marketing.
We are not expecting this Trustee to personally manage all of the Foundation's marketing or social media. We are looking for someone who can bring expertise, ideas, media contacts and practical PR support at key moments throughout the year.
Trustees currently attend four meetings per year via Zoom. Additional involvement will vary throughout the year, with increased activity sometimes required around major performances, campaigns or Foundation events.
We recognise that our trustees have busy professional and personal lives. We're not looking for people to undertake day-to-day operational roles, but for enthusiastic individuals who can share their knowledge, ideas and connections to help our charity flourish.
Job Requirements
We would particularly welcome someone who:
- Has experience in PR, communications, journalism, media, marketing or a related field.
- Understands how to identify and develop a good story.
- Is a confident and engaging writer.
- Understands how to approach journalists and media organisations.
- Is proactive and enjoys spotting opportunities and making connections.
- Understands the importance of reputation, confidentiality and safeguarding when communicating stories involving children and young people.
- Is organised and able to plan around key events and campaigns.
- Shares our commitment to improving access to performing arts opportunities for children and young people.
- Existing media contacts would be particularly valuable but are not essential.
Essential: Four Zoom meetings per year, preparation for meetings and normal trustee governance responsibilities.
Additional: Sharing ideas, making introductions, championing the charity and offering occasional advice within their expertise.
Job Responsibilities
- Help develop a clear PR and communications strategy for the Foundation.
- Identify stories and opportunities that could generate positive media coverage.
- Write or help prepare press releases around key events, achievements and campaigns.
- Help develop relationships with relevant journalists, publications, broadcasters and other media contacts.
- Pitch appropriate stories and follow up press opportunities.
- Help us make the most of major performances and events through publicity, media invitations and other opportunities.
- Identify opportunities for interviews, features, photographs and case studies.
- Help raise awareness of the Foundation through relevant networks, organisations and community channels.
- Help us tell the stories behind our bursaries, young people, fundraising and achievements in an engaging and appropriate way.
- Help ensure our website, social media, publicity and fundraising communications tell a consistent story.
