GET INVOLVED!

Bloggers & Storytellers - Job Description

​

Are you a word whiz who obsesses over sentence structure and semi-colons? Are you

passionate about staying informed on human, animal, and environmental wellness and conservation issues, and want to offer your two cents? Are spreading the word and informing others some of your favourite past-times? Are you passionate about volunteer service? Then we want you! 

 

We’re looking for creative and conscientious individuals to blog for us and help manage our online presence to keep our followers up-to-date on current conservation and animal welfare issues/events, along with all the latest Prime Earth news.

Duties Include:

  • Conducting research to obtain factual information and authentic detail for blog content.

 

  • Choosing subject matter that interests readers and our target audiences.

 

  • Writing/editing and creating layouts for new articles and features - communicating in a professional, but unique conversational “voice” for Prime Earth.

 

  • Working with editors and managers to shape material to be publishable on our blog.

 

  • Acting as a liaison between blog readers and Prime Earth - responding promptly to blog comments and emails.

 

  • Performing blog maintenance activities such as updating plugins when/if necessary. (We will teach you how to do this.)

 

  • Providing web analytics on content performance and comment feedback. (We will teach you how to do this.)

Skill Set Needed:

  • WORDSMITH - You are a writer who knows how to craft crisp, engaging, and positive copy. We’re looking for someone who believes the glass is half full and knows there is always hope when it comes to conservation and animal welfare issues. If you have a gift for writing humorous, light-hearted, and conversational prose, this position is for you!

 

  • CULTURAL CRITIQUER - You know your way around the internet and keep up to date on all the latest conservation news and events. We’re looking for someone who can wow us with their research, knowledge, and self-expression skills. If you have a gift for dialoguing with others online, engaging readers, and are passionate about spreading the word, we need your blogging talent!

 

  • STORY-TELLER - You know the ropes when it comes to the blogosphere. We're looking for someone who can sing loud and clear with gibbon-like crescendo across the forest on the conservation issues that matter most to human and non-human primates. If you have a gift for creating compelling stories, let's connect and get things going!

 

Will we be a good fit for each other?

Here’s a few reasons why you’d want to join our team:

 

  • You think normal is boring. You’re self motivated, hungry for a challenge, and looking to

    make an immediate impact.

 

  • You are fully engrained in social media culture and understand the fine line of managing a professional, but effective social media presence.

 

  • You want to work hard and be part of a fun, growing nonprofit.
