Artsreach is seeking a highly motivated, creative and strategically minded individual to lead all marketing activity and raise the profile of our work across rural Dorset, crafting compelling stories, producing high‑quality digital and print content, managing press and social media, and developing strategies that strengthen audience engagement.

Artsreach is Dorset’s touring arts charity, presenting a programme of professional theatre, dance, music and participatory activity in rural communities of the county. Supported by Dorset Council, Artsreach is also part of Arts Council England’s National Portfolio, and celebrated its 35th Anniversary in 2025. Since the launch of its first programme in March 1990, Artsreach has been committed to working with volunteers across Dorset to overcome the barriers of rural and social isolation by providing communities with access to professional arts events, firmly believing that engagement enriches quality of life

The Marketing & Communications Officer will play a key role in raising the profile of Artsreach. By immersing yourself in our communities, our programme and the stories behind our work, you will create compelling content and build narratives that effectively communicate who we are and the impact we make to audiences, artists, funders and partners.

You will lead the planning and delivery of audience‑focused marketing and communications activity that increases awareness and strengthens engagement. This includes developing clear communications strategies, producing compelling digital and print content, and managing press, social media and other digital platforms.

A key part of the role is storytelling: gathering data, case studies and evidence of impact from across our programmes, and shaping these into accessible, persuasive communications that speak to the needs of our audience, volunteers, supporters and funders. Working closely with the team and our volunteer promoter network, you will ensure that our activity is visible, our messaging is consistent, and our unique contribution to rural communities is clearly understood.

Working within a small team can at times be highly pressurised, so we require someone who can adapt quickly and contribute positively to a supportive and collaborative working culture. This role will suit an individual with strong experience in cultural marketing, who can bring fresh ideas, confidence with digital tools, and a commitment to widening access to the arts across rural communities.

Many of us have discovered the joy, the necessity, of getting out into green spaces - on our own or with our families. We've found that being better connected to nature means we can be more. More healthy, more creative, more at ease. National parks are inspirational, safe places to continue that journey… to explore more. Prospectus is delighted to be supporting a collective partnership of UK national parks in searching for a Communications Officer. 

The organisation works on behalf of the UK’s 15 national parks, building ambitious national partnerships with organisations such as BMW UK, Vodafone, Santander UK and The Estée Lauder Companies UK & Ireland. They also have an award-winning Revere initiative in partnership with Palladium, helping to attract private investment into nature recovery. A small but entrepreneurial team, the organisation exists to grow the impact, influence and resources of the national parks family. 

As Communications Officer, you’ll help tell the stories of the UK’s national parks in engaging, creative and accessible ways.
