Summary

We are looking for a volunteer to help develop appealing social media content, suggest ways we can increase engagement, identify trends and new platforms.

Detailed description

Currently The Blue Cross at Kimpton only uses its Facebook page for social media. Therefore initially the role would be to maximise this opportunity and design and plan posts for this platform.

However, your excellent communication skills and practical knowledge of social media channels will enable us to enhance engagement and increase awareness of our work.

We would love you to join us and help us help more pets in need.


Please note that you will NOT be working directly with our animals.


What you will be doing

  • Creating and posting engaging content keeping in line with Blue Cross messaging
  • Helping us to make the most of our social media channels by suggesting ways we can increase engagement
  • Identifying trends and new platforms in social media that Blue Cross could take advantage of
  • Suggesting ways we could engage with new audiences
  • Using your skills in social media marketing to suggest and implement ways we can make more impact through our social media


The skills you need

  • Ideally you will be a professional in social media with proven industry experience across the key social media platforms
  • Social media networking skills and knowledge of analytics tools
  • Good organisation and attention to detail
  • A confidential approach
  • Regular commitment and reliability
  • Comfortable volunteering alone and remotely
  • Willingness to learn and follow Blue Cross procedure


What's in it for you

  • You’ll gain additional experience for your CV, or keep your existing skills up to date
  • You’ll be part of a friendly and committed team
  • We’ll provide you with all the relevant training, and access to Blue Horizons, our online learning platform


Days/Hours

We ask that you can commit to a few hours a week and have access to a laptop/desktop/tablet and a good internet connection. You will need to adhere to our social media policy at all times.

About Blue Cross - Kimpton Rehoming Centre

Our rehoming centre originally opened in the 1940s and has facilities for dogs, cats and small pets. Our newly refurbished facilities include 20 kennels and 29 cat pens, which includes a mother and kitten unit. We also have indoor rabbit space and rooms for small pets.
We love the way that pets can make such an amazing difference to the people they live with, and we are passionate about the very special relationship between a pet and a person. So we do all we can to help that relationship thrive - and volunteers play a crucial role in helping us achieve this.
