Are you passionate about history, community, and preserving the rich heritage of Witney? Witney Museum see themselves as custodians of the past and guardians of the future.

The Witney and District Museum is looking for volunteers to boost our online presence and attract more people to our events, and Musuem – could this be you?

Volunteer Marketing Lead

Our Marketing Lead manages the museum’s digital presence, creating and scheduling engaging content across platforms to attract visitors and promote events, with the support of volunteer Marketing Assistants. They play a key role in enhancing the museum’s profile while ensuring that all online communications reflect our values and adhere to health and safety guidelines.

What’s involved:

  • Planning, drafting and scheduling event listings, blog posts, news articles and associated
    imagery into WordPress website (could be done in batches, so all events could be set up in
    March, for example).
  • Sharing content with the volunteer creating our newsletters.
  • Batch creating and scheduling core social media content – 3 posts a week to Facebook and
    Instagram.
  • Planning and creating ad hoc / campaign / previous or upcoming event content for website,
    newsletter and social media.
  • Delegating some of this work to the volunteer Marketing Assistants accordingly.

We anticipate this volunteering role requiring 4-6 hours per month which can be worked entirely flexibly.
