Help us communicate with our community, market our events and ensure that our open access digital era government syllabus reaches a broader audience.
About us
As a rapidly growing open education nonprofit, Teaching Public Service in the Digital Age is working to build a world in which all public service organizations have essential digital capabilities so that our governments have a better shot at overcoming the urgent challenges facing our societies, and our planet. Crucially, new digital-era skills must be integrated with and inseparable from traditional public service skills. This is the challenge we were founded to meet.
How do we achieve this mission? We operate a teach-the-teacher model - we train the professors who educate people to become public servants. Specifically, we ensure that those who educate current and future public service leaders embed key digital-era skills into University courses and other training programmes. Core to our work is a carefully designed, openly licensed digital-era government syllabus and a network of around 50 professors in 25 countries who are using our materials in their teaching. To support the network we organize masterclasses, research seminars, and webinars. We recently secured philanthropic funding to enable the organization to professionalize and further scale over the next two years.
About the role
We are looking for an expert who can lead our communications and marketing efforts and support the delivery of our events. This includes ensuring that our regular educators’ workshops attract at least 25 participants, growing the community of educators teaching our materials to at least 250 and positively influencing the education of at least 10,000 current and future public servants by the end of 2025.
We’re a small team and you will be working closely with our Executive Director and Programme Coordinator as well as our four-person Board. We work remotely from Spain, the UK, Canada, France and Germany and are open to applicants from anywhere, but ideally within four hours of CET.
The role will include
Experience and skills
Education
Degree in communications, marketing, media, journalism or similar.
What we offer
We’re a small, distributed team that works together online. The role is fully remote and offers significant flexibility. We focus on getting things done, achieving great results and trusting each other rather than specifying where and how people should work.
The salary is USD $44,000 for an initial 12-month freelance contract. We work 35 hours per week but are open to discussing a part-time, pro-rata arrangement with you. We have an unlimited leave policy based on trust and prior arrangements with colleagues where we expect everyone to take at least 25 days of leave a year.
How to apply
Send a CV, a cover letter explaining your interest in the role, and a list of relevant projects you have worked on to apply@teachingpublicservice.digital.
Closing Date: 19 May 2024
Our work is kindly supported by the Public Interest Technology Infrastructure Fund, Bloomberg Philanthropies and Schmidt Futures.
