This role involves supporting the station at a strategic level, with a focus on expanding the online audience, enhancing brand visibility, and improving external positioning. Board meetings are held six to seven times a year, and the board member will contribute to various communications and PR activities to drive the station's growth and development.
The successful candidate will offer strategic oversight and guidance in marketing, communications, and PR, with particular attention to audience growth, brand development, and market positioning. Additionally, the candidate will support the creation and implementation of social media and digital communication strategies, contribute to fundraising and philanthropic efforts, and help strengthen relationships with partners, stakeholders, and the community. Supporting the station's commitment to nurturing and employing emerging broadcasting and media talent is also a key responsibility.
Ideal candidates should have senior-level experience in marketing, communications, PR, or media, with a strong understanding of brand development, audience engagement, and digital platforms. Experience in advising on fundraising or philanthropic initiatives and the ability to contribute strategically at the board level are important. An interest in public service media and community broadcasting is desirable, while previous board experience is appreciated but not essential. This voluntary position offers the opportunity to be involved in the governance of a well-established community broadcaster and support its sustainability and reach.
