Sociology Social Media Assistant CfA

An interesting opportunity, though personally the language of ‘assistant’ and one year would put me off a little bit:

*Apologies for crossposting*

Dear Colleagues,

Since its launch in August 2014, the Twitter account for Sociology has become a popular and important means of promoting the journal to a wide academic and non-academic audience. Social media are also proving to be a practical way to link the work of the journal to topical news and debates in the media. Sociology is therefore creating the new voluntary role of Social Media Assistant and seeks applicants with an interest in contributing to the current and ongoing development of the journal’s presence on Twitter and other social media platforms.

The role will commence on Monday 3rd October and run for a one-year fixed-term period in the first instance.

For details about the role and the link to the online application form, please see the full call for applications on the BSA site. The deadline for applications is 5pm GMT Friday 22 July. 

 If you have any queries about the role, please contact Sociology Editor, Kath Woodward: Kath.Woodward@open.ac.uk
