Website, Communications, and Social Media Manager

 

Sharing Sacred Spaces is a community-building non-profit focused on bridging differences through dialogue, education, hospitality, and most uniquely and importantly, architecture. The organization currently runs programs in three cities and has a steady flow of virtual events that bring 100-200 people together several times per month. We have a fast-paced and deadline-driven environment as we continue to gain members and expand while we also sustain the quality and attention to our current initiatives.

 

The Website, Communications, and Social Media Manager is a critical role for our organization as all of our programming is currently on an all-virtual platform. We need someone to take charge and meet all promotional, marketing, and communications needs on a strict timeline leading up to each one of our programmed events, as well as post-event follow up (e.g. surveys) and management of all aspects of our website development and content. In addition, the right candidate will be able to establish a compelling online presence for our organization.

 

The ideal candidate will have significant experience using website-making wizards such as Wix or Squarespace, and various social media platforms. The candidate should be comfortable creating and managing databases, generating newsletters and promotional blasts, and developing multiple social media accounts. The ideal candidate will be assisting in the development of appropriate content to inform, educate and engage our audience to increase awareness, boost traffic, and achieve marketing goals.

 

An exceptional candidate will have both experience and knowledge promoting peacebuilding, diversity, and inclusion efforts, plus working knowledge of the major content management systems, social media analytics, and experience in running targeted ads on social media sites.

 

This will be a demanding but rewarding opportunity as we work with communities across the continent to grow and expand our initiatives.
