Job description

We’re recruiting a Communications and Projects Assistant for two days per week to join our small-but-dynamic staff team.

Contract & hours

One year contract, 15 hours per week. Open to flexible hours (must include Tuesday morning)

Location

Cardiff (but postholder can work remotely from anywhere in Wales)

Tŷ Cerdd’s place in Welsh musical life is unique. We work with music‑creators at all stages of their career through artist development, with communities making music around the nation, and with a range of music organisations and networks in Wales, the UK and internationally.

The Communications & Projects Assistant will work directly alongside our Head of Digital Content, liaising with the whole team to help us tell our story and the story of the musicians and communities we are working with. The post-holder will help shape social media messages and content, along with direct email and web copy. There will also be the opportunity to work on projects, such as artist‑development pathways and workshops in our Studio.

We are a hybrid organisation, with staff working both from the office and remotely, so this role would suit someone who is comfortable working independently as well as with a team.
