External Coordinator - Press Team

Press EC

Our Press team is entering a fresh cycle of energy and action, with big plans unfolding over the coming year. Step into a role where your coordination helps the movement flourish and your work supports XR’s next wave of growth.

Role Description:

The role can be shared between two people, reducing the time commitment necessary.

The key role of the Social Media External Coordinator (EC) is to ensure the team is represented in the broader circle, and aware of that circle’s work and priorities.

Some of the Press EC tasks include:

- Representing the mandate of the team within meetings of the broader circle, and asking another member of the team to attend when not available.

- Taking issues that can’t be resolved in the team to the broader circle.

- Exchanging information with other teams.

Role of External Coordinator

Application process:

Please apply for the role on this platform. The IC of Media & Messaging will get in touch with you and send you the Zoom link for the meeting the next day. You will be asked to introduce yourself, explain why you would like to do the role and how you would like to do it, what you would bring to the team. You and the other candidates will then be put in a breakout room and the team will discuss your application. You will be told the results back in the main meeting.

Thank you so much for considering taking on a volunteer role with Extinction Rebellion UK!
