Digital Content Executive
This role will be based on the university campus, with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.
Do you have excellent written and editorial skills with experience in digital content and structuring content for websites?
The University’s Digital Communications team is looking for a digital content executive to work on Leeds.ac.uk and our student-facing website, For Students. These two websites serve two million users annually, and are critical tools for student recruitment and supporting students and postgraduate researchers during their time at Leeds.
You will be confident in writing and editing copy for different audiences and purposes, with knowledge of best practice for search engine optimisation and accessibility. You’ll also have experience working with a content management system (CMS).

You will be able to work independently or in a team, manage priorities and meet deadlines, and also collaborate with stakeholders and colleagues to shape content across these core websites. This role will offer training and development opportunities and is ideal for a content writer looking to broaden their experience and develop content design skills.
