Birmingham Writers’ Retreat Rep, Writers' HQ
Deadline: Fri 19 Oct 2018
Writers' HQ are looking for someone to take the reins at their Birmingham Writers’ Retreat which launched in 2016 and has been a popular and busy retreat since day one. Our ideal candidate will be an early career writer who is looking to branch out into teaching/facilitating, who is approachable, professional, lively and fun, and has interesting things to say about writing.

We need you to:
•Facilitate our monthly writing retreat in Birmingham (full training given)
•Promote the retreat via social media, networking and other channels
•Have an Internet connection and laptop, be familiar enough with WordPress to update your own event listings (with training, natch), and to not run screaming from social media.

You need to be:
•An early career writer with a publishing history (doesn’t have to be a major publishing history. A handful of short stories here and there is fine).
•Able to run one retreat every month on a Saturday or a Sunday.
•Be technologically literate

This is a freelance position. We pay £80 per retreat plus commission depending on attendee numbers. We expect you to participate in some marketing outside of retreat days.
We will give you full training to set up and run one of our famous one-day, procrastination-busting writing retreats.

To apply, send your CV and cover letter to natalier@writershq.co.uk by Friday 19 October 2018.
