You will be familiar with website management and posting on social media and able to follow guidelines on the type of content we can post and adhere to RSPCA approved views.  Ideally you will be able to guide us on increasing following, monetising the sites and social media strategy.  We are seeking multiple volunteers so we imagine each person will have a different skill level or expertise.  We support every type of animal and we seek every type of person - diversity is our strength.

We seek people who want to work together to improve animal welfare.  We are a team, we support each other and learn from each other.  We want you to bring your skills and motivation.  If you live on Teesside or live elsewhere and are excited by our mission we would love to hear from you.  Together we can make a real difference.

WHAT DIFFERENCE WILL YOU MAKE?

Successful navigation of social media, website and eCommerce is critical to our ability to raise funds and create awareness.  You will be at the heart of a new approach and rapidly expanding activities.  Your success will allow us to help more animals in your community.

We want you to bring your experience and motivation, your problem solving skills and we’ll all share the teamwork to get things done. Together we can make a real difference.
