• Manage website content, social channels, and email campaigns, using analytics to track, refine, and report on performance.
• Coordinate the design of compelling multi-channel marketing collateral - from visual communication approaches (videos, short films and graphics) to brochures, ads and campaigns that showcase the Council’s impact.

• Champion brand consistency, creativity, and storytelling across all marketing materials.
