If you are a creative, organised, and enthusiastic marketing professional with expertise in leveraging communication channels to enhance public engagement and visibility, we want to hear from you.
The Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) is seeking a Marketing Officer to help drive our mission of making knowledge useful and increasing awareness of our impactful work. In this role, you will primarily support public engagement activities and promote the RSE’s well-regarded academic journals.
This is a dynamic opportunity to bring your energy and creativity to the RSE, crafting content that resonates with diverse audiences. A key aspect of the role will be your central involvement in bringing the RSE’s festival of knowledge, Curious, to life each year.
As Scotland’s National Academy, with over 1,800 distinguished Fellows from academia, business, public service, and the arts, we engage nationally and internationally to share knowledge and address some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
We are looking for a talented individual to:
• Plan and deliver effective marketing campaigns for the RSE’s public engagement programme, including Curious festival, partnership events, signature lectures, and regional activities across Scotland, building awareness, engagement, and driving registrations.
• Develop creative and impactful marketing strategies that align with the RSE’s goal of broadening its audience base and raising the organisation's profile, with a focus on reaching a diverse range of communities.
• Cultivate and strengthen relationships with key internal and external stakeholders, ensuring collaborative efforts that enhance the reach and effectiveness of marketing across the RSE’s channels.
• Develop and implement a strategic marketing plan to enhance the profile and visibility of the RSE’s respected academic journals, focusing on expanding reach, attracting new readership, and increasing engagement within the academic community and beyond.
If you have the skills, creativity and experience needed for this role and can demonstrate the desire to develop impactful marketing campaigns for the RSE that stand out from the rest, then we’d love to hear from you.
