About this Role
The Royal Academy of Arts is currently seeking to appoint a Content Assistant to join our Commercial team, on a part-time, fixed term contract basis for 9 months.
The Commercial Content Assistant will support the RA’s overall commercial objective to drive ECommerce traffic and revenue- delivering the right content, in the right place, at the right time. The role will be responsible for creating on-brand, visually enticing concepts and photography for the RA ECommerce site and the wider Audience & Experience department. A key element of the role is the care and consideration given to RA digital assets, including creating and sourcing, as well as building and maintaining a robust and accessible asset database, providing a key resource for wider teams.
About You
To be considered for this role, you will have previous experience working in an ECommerce or digital trading/ marketing role and be confident in digital photography (ideally in product and lifestyle photography), with the ability to showcase products in a visually appealing way. You will be a proficient user of Adobe Photoshop, and will be able to retouch images, adjust colours, enhance quality and create high-quality assets. The ability to develop innovative content concepts that are on-brand, visually enticing and will drive ECommerce sales and KPIs is key, as is experience using various content management systems.
The Company
The RA dates way back to 1768 when a group of artists and architects persuaded King George lll to help them to ‘establish a society for promoting the Art of Design'. The original academy, in Pall Mall, was less than 10 meters long. Since then, there have been many changes, though the RA’s core purpose of bringing art and design to a broad audience and championing art and artists still holds true.
Today we are a contemporary art organisation hosting internationally acclaimed exhibitions and through investment in employee training and development, with courses such as Unconscious Bias, LGBTQ+ Awareness, Bystander, and Mental Health First Aid training, we are striving to foster a safe space for everyone through positive action. We also have Employee Network Groups, Ways In Groups, and an Employee Council so every employee has a voice and a way to feel heard by colleagues through the CEO.
The RA is truly a unique place, both as an attraction to our visitors, but also as a workplace. Our people are at the heart of all we do, and we support a broad and inspiring mix of departments; from exhibitions, curators, art handlers, researchers, publishers, and digital to schools and education, visitor welcome, fundraisers, and corporate support.
