Hamilton, Canada McMaster Students Union Full time

**This is an SOP (Student Opportunity Position) for MSU members - a full time contract role intended for upcoming McMaster graduates or as a Co-op role.**

There is very little as important as how we communicate with the student body. From the administrative or department level, the messages we send need to be clear, consistent and professional.

The Marketing and Communications department coordinates all marketing and advertising campaigns with the MSU, and develops long-term marketing strategies for the MSU. The department plays a significant role in the creation and consolidation of the MSU’s public image and will work to increase communication between the MSU, the students of McMaster University, and the external community.

General Scope of Duties

Reporting to the Marketing & Communications Director (MCD), the Communications Officer (CO) will be responsible for facilitating all marketing and communication for the McMaster Students Union (MSU). The Officer will act as a resource for the Board of Directors and General Manager in completing their marketing, public relations and communication goals. In addition, the CO will serve as a resource for all areas of the organization. The CO will work laterally with all persons responsible for promotion to ensure that the goals of the organization are being achieved in promotional and campaign materials. The successful applicant will be highly motivated to work in a fast paced environment, be extremely organized, detail oriented, have strong interpersonal skills and excellent time management skills.

Recognizing that the functions of communications and marketing encompass a broad and wide variety of roles and responsibilities, it is important to note that not all functions are contained within this definition, and the positions itself should be ever changing and adaptive to best meet the needs of the MSU.
