Many thanks to @Aleita Taviah for her amazing work in this role! But, due to unforeseen circumstances, I am now accepting applications for this position.
Overview & Duties
The Director of Marketing is an Executive position and as such will have all responsibilities inherent in that position, such as working with other Directors and Officers, providing counsel to other Executives when asked, and managing the Department of Marketing. While this role interacts a great deal with its peers, it also requires a great deal of self sufficiency and motivation with regards to the promotion of our community to non- members through various formats. (Social media, in person events, social networking, etc.) The Director of Marketing reports directly to the Keeper of the Chronicles.
Good luck to all the applicants!
