Description
We're seeking a creative and curious Communications Assistant Apprentice to join our team. You'll play a hands-on role in developing engaging content across various platforms, including social media, print, and digital.
The main purpose of this role is to help shape the council's approach to engaging a younger audience through creating content. Working to briefs, you'll help plan, research, and produce written, visual, and audio materials that support wider media, marketing, and documentation campaigns.
You'll collaborate with colleagues across communications and contribute to the full content lifecycle: from planning and creation to storage, distribution, and evaluation. You'll work closely with the council's youth participation team, collaborating to understand Merton's young people and create content that resonates with them.
As part of this role, you'll complete the Content Creation Apprenticeship Level 3 run by provider JGA. Through this programme, you'll develop the knowledge, skills, and behaviours that underpin effective content creation and communications practice, including audience understanding, content production, data-informed decision making, campaign planning, and brand application.
