The Clyde Docks Preservation Initiative are looking for a marketing and PR support partner / consultant who can assist us initially on a pro-bono/speculative basis with taking our outreach, networking and sponsor relationship management strategies to the next level. In addition to developing plans for a maritime park at Govan Graving Docks, which is our key concern at present, we are expanding our scope throughout the Clyde Corridor to look at wider protection of maritime and heritage assets for the benefit of communities and local economies. We have identified a number of derelict sites and artefacts that are opportune for protection or restoration. Work with our marketing partner will include further developing our strategies for: - Ongoing development of our five-year dynamic business and marketing plans - Optimising return on investment for our core sponsors and funding partners - Sponsor recruitment and retention - Community engagement (including the public and business communities) - Media relations - Raising the profile and level of awareness of the maritime heritage of the Clyde - Addressing the context of modern maritime activity and sustainable opportunities - Promoting awareness of nature and ecology in dockland / former dockland areas - Leveraging potential for the River Clyde to once again become a thriving hub for maritime activity While the role will initially be voluntary/speculative we anticipate that it will expand with the scope of our operations - potentially developing into a permanent position or long-term opportunity to collaborate with us on a range of exciting and innovative projects for maritime preservation. A background involving marketing related to maritime/marine leisure, industry or shipping or social enterprise / third sector activity would be advantageous.
