Key Responsibilities

Other website responsibilities may include adding internal links, writing or checking alt text, fixing broken links and maintaining categories, tags and website templates.

The successful candidate will also work with Google Docs and Google Sheets and help maintain organised content systems.
Attention to detail will be important because the coordinator will need to identify formatting problems, inconsistencies, broken links and other issues before content is published.
Who Can Apply?
