Departments across the Trust are placing an increasing reliance on Digital channels to achieve their objectives, and the time has come to take our digital communications and operations to a whole new level.

Some of the responsibilities will include digital comms and content planning, CMS Training on site SEO, managing the workflow and publishing of content to live, coordinating the activities of digital content producers and guiding in terms of best practice. You would also need to maintain an up-to-date, audience focused presence on the internet for the Woodland Trust, appropriately reflecting our case for support.

Experience or knowledge of HTML and CSS would be an advantage, along with knowledge in using Dreamweaver and Adobe Photoshop. A good understanding of web information architecture and Social Media would be a great advantage.
