Digital Media Producer

We are seeking a passionate and motivated digital media specialist; a natural storyteller, with a creative eye and a command of words to co-design, co-ordinate and produce our digital content.

Our vision is to be a positive force for change in the lives of young people. Through a range of weekly classes, bespoke workshops, projects and productions, we offer children and young people aged 0-25 the opportunity to unleash their creativity, build their confidence and expand their horizons through the arts.

The Role:

This is a brand-new role within the Toonspeak team at a time of exciting creative organisational change. Previously, the digital media output and social media content was managed via our Connectors Programme, which has recently concluded. We are now seeking a passionate and motivated digital media specialist; a natural storyteller, with a creative eye and a command of words that can build on the fantastic work already achieved by the Connectors.

Purpose:

1. To co-design, create and produce engaging and innovative digital content, including film and photography, that tells the story of Toonspeak’s work with children, young people and communities across Glasgow.
2. To co-ordinate all Toonspeak public facing digital platforms including our website and social media channels, celebrating our multiple theatre and arts programmes, projects and partnerships.
3. To create, implement and manage bespoke marketing and fundraising campaigns which elevate the voice of Toonspeak to wider audiences locally, as well as across the youth arts and professional theatre sector.
4. Support the development of a Digital Media strategy which grows the Toonspeak community, engages existing participants, finds new recruits, and forges strong connections with current and potential funders and partners.
