This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who combines technical understanding with creativity, editorial judgement and a passion for delivering exceptional digital experiences.
You’ll bring:
- Strong experience managing and publishing content within a CMS (Sitefinity experience is a bonus)
- A solid understanding of HTML and confidence working with developers and IT colleagues
- Experience overseeing the day-to-day running of a large website
- Skills in analysing website performance using tools like GA4, Google Tag Manager or Matomo
- Excellent organisational ability and the skills to manage multiple concurrent projects
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Experience managing or mentoring others (highly desirable)
- A proactive, collaborative approach to working across teams
