Cambridge Science Centre
For more than ten years, Cambridge Science Centre (CSC) has been sparking curiosity and a love of STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) in young people across the East of England.
Job Description
As the Marketing & Communications Officer, you will be the driving force behind the day-to-day delivery of our marketing and communications activity. Working alongside the Marketing & Communications Manager, you'll be part of a small, ambitious team that delivers high-quality marketing and communications with creativity, pace and purpose. Your primary focus will be creating engaging content, managing our digital channels and delivering campaigns that increase footfall and raise the profile of Cambridge Science Centre.
This role requires an agile, proactive generalist who enjoys turning ideas into action, taking ownership of everything from social media and web updates to print production, paid promotions and promotional events.

Development opportunities will open in tandem with the Charity’s growth, with the potential to explore strategic planning, campaign development, media relations, and community outreach in the future.
Ultimately, you will play a critical role in shaping how people see, experience and remember Cambridge Science Centre. We're looking for someone who is curious, creative and eager to learn; someone who enjoys contributing ideas, takes pride in delivering high-quality work, and is excited to grow their skills as part of a small but influential team.
