Job Description

Responsibilities

In this job share role, you'll be supporting and developing a network of communications volunteers across 20–25 RNLI lifeboat stations in Scotland.
As Regional Communications Manager, you’ll work with our Regional Communications Lead and Media Trainers to recruit and support our volunteer Lifeboat Press Officers and Social Media Officers, ensuring they have the skills and resources needed to deliver local news stories, video and engaging social media content for their lifeboat station.
You'll also help plan and support our fundraising and water safety PR campaigns, while maximising the impact of our lifesaving stories and protecting the charity’s reputation.
Being home-based within central or northern Scotland, you can also work from lifeboat stations or lifeguard support centres as necessary and available.
You will be expected to travel throughout the Scottish region and so the ability to work independently and prioritise your work is essential.
The RNLI is a 24/7 search and rescue organisation, and you should be ready to work outside normal office hours.
You will also be part of an out-of-hours duty press officer rota, which will require scheduled weekend and evening work.
