HEAD OF Marketing – 1 POSITION

Do you want to gain qualified experience in marketing, from Sweden’s largest association of foreign affairs? Application is now open for the position Head of PR! We are looking for two people to be responsible for UF Uppsala’s external communications. As Head of PR in UF Uppsala, you will be responsible for the association’s public relations and marketing- creating public awareness of lectures, seminars, gasques and other projects within UF. This is done by designing posters, headers, videos and social media. To put it in short, a responsibility for everything that makes the association visible and ensures that the spread of information regarding UF events is as large as possible. If you want significant creative liberty with the opportunity to decide how you shape and organize your work, this is the right position for you.

As Head of PR it is important to have a sense of project management and organisation, but at the same time being innovative and creative. You will be in close communication with all parts of the association as well as partner organisations, and you should therefore have a good cooperation ability. The PR work is ongoing during the entire operational year, which means you need to have time available continuously. Structure and planning are therefore crucial abilities. Preferably we see that you have knowledge and earlier experience in graphic design (Photoshop/InDesign/Illustrator) and an interest in communications and public relations, but the post also opens up for learning and developing these skills further. Finally, there are opportunities for internal training and networking. 

Are you PRoductive, PRecise and maybe even a little bit PRetentious? Then apply for Head of PR! If you have any questions, you are encouraged to get in touch with current Head of PR Soujud at pr@ufuppsala.se .

WEB EDITOR-IN-CHIEF – 1 POSITION

The Web Editor-in-Chief’s assignment is to manage the association’s web magazine www.uttryckmagazine.com. You are responsible for regularly publishing articles concerning social and foreign affairs. It can be in the form of interviews, reports, chronicles, a series of articles and much more. You have great freedom to design the website and its content in the direction you want, while working closely with the Editors-in-Chief and Uttryck Magazine’s editorial team. A new addition is Uttryck TV, which you can have the opportunity to develop further! Some board work is also included in the post. 

The online magazine is relatively new within UF Uppsala, which means that you have great

opportunities to expand it and test new ideas. As a Web Editor-in-Chief, it is therefore to your advantage if you are creative and enjoy working with the written word. You should also be comfortable working with people, giving feedback on other people’s ideas and texts, and inspire and motivate new writers. The process of following articles from ideas to finished products gives you the opportunity to meet many different people with different experiences and learn about interesting topics along the way, which is very fun! It is also good to be comfortable with digital media and have communicative skills. Experience with WordPress or web development is an advantage – but it is absolutely not a requirement.
