Hiring: P/T Digital Marketing + Events Assistant

(don’t get hung up on the title though, we can always change that – as I am open to hearing from more mid-level professionals as well as entry-level ones)

 

I’m on the hunt for a part-time Digital Marketing + Events Assistant. The main focuses will be assisting in: client communication, Facebook Advertising (experience required), and events (workshops and seminars).

This position will be an independent contractor (at least to begin) and will start at approximately 10 hours/week. The initial contract term will be 3-months, with the opportunity to extend and grow with the company. The position pays $16 – $22 / hour dependent on experience.

You will work remotely, but the applicant should reside in the Halifax area, as bi-weekly face-to-face meetings will be required.

See below for the position and task description.
