Content creator and writer
We are looking for a prolific and talented content creator to write and produce various types of content and blog regularly, to expand our organisation’s digital footprint, awareness, subscribers, and leads. We also need you to understand the right types of content to send to the right people at the right time, both for lead nurturing and to boost the sharing and forwarding of our content-driven emails. This role requires a high level of creativity, attention to detail, and project management skills. The writer will be expected to sustain and develop our organisation’s voice across all written content.
