Advertising Volunteer

What you'll be doing:

• Collaborating with your team to identify and maximise sponsorship and advertising opportunities.
• Inspiring local businesses and organisations to advertise in and sponsor our branch publications, events, and services.
• Working closely with our newsletter editor and activity organizers to ensure all advertising and sponsorship aligns with NCT's Commercial Activities Policy (CCAP).
• Ensuring invoices are raised and funds are promptly banked and accounted for with the branch treasurer.
• Liaising with other NCT branches to keep our advertising rates competitive.
• Connecting with the Volunteering Team before approaching any companies with a UK-wide or significant regional presence to avoid duplication.

What we're looking for:

• Proactive and entrepreneurial — you're a self-starter who can take initiative.
• Confident communication skills — you're comfortable engaging with a variety of people.
• Some comfort with numbers — you're not afraid to work with financial details.
• Creative problem-solver — you can devise and present innovative solutions to meet advertisers' needs.
• Negotiation skills are a plus.
• Willingness to learn and adhere to NCT policies and charity law (e.g., VAT).
