Act as an advocate for best practice in digital content creation and file management, encouraging high standards of quality, consistency, and accessibility
-
Support and collaborate with colleagues across the Marketing and Communications team, offering technical advice and creative input where appropriate
-
Contribute to a positive, inclusive, and solutions-focused team culture that aligns with the Philharmonia’s mission and values
-
Represent the Marketing and Communications team professionally at Philharmonia rehearsals, concerts, and events, demonstrating flexibility and enthusiasm for the Orchestra’s work
