This is a role that will require a broad skillset in all aspects of marketing and event delivery.

The Director of Brand and Marketing requires support in delivering an extensive annual programme of activity. This role will therefore require a can-do attitude to getting work done, the ability to multi-task, prioritise and time plan effectively, and the intuitive understanding of what it takes to deliver a broad list of requirements under pressure and to a high standard.

This individual will work closely with the Director of Brand and Marketing, as well as the Commercial Director. This is a role where responsibilities touch on all aspects of World Sailing's activities so you will need to build effective relationships internally and externally with a broad stakeholder family.

Excellent communication skills, very high attention to detail and a focus on high standards of delivery are all essential.

Alongside proactively planning, you must be able to react swiftly to changing circumstances, both using your initiative and taking direction as required.

As a team, we are very hands-on. We are all prepared to roll up our sleeves and get the job done -everything from creating high-end presentations for our partners, to ensuring the coffee machines are working in the hospitality lounge. A keen eye for 'what good looks like' is crucial.

All applications should be sent to: human.resources@sailing.org with a CV and covering letter by 28 March 2019.
