5 – 8 hours per week; 25 – 30 hours per month; retainer available
You’ll meet once a week with the communications team, once a month with the full staff, and ad-hoc as needed.

What You’ll Need to Apply

A resumé is a great way to concisely convey who you are and what you can do. We also understand that for a contract position like this, some applicants may have their own freelance business and don’t maintain a resumé. So if you have a personal or business website that covers the same info, that’s fine, too.

In case you’d like to prepare before opening the form, here are some of the non-trivial questions in the application:

In 150 words or less, what drew you to apply?
In 150 words or less, how does your life with God shape your life at work?
What other nonprofits do you think are doing a great job with social media and email marketing in a similar tone and ethos as Renovaré?
What is an example of a marketing or social media trend that works well for another organization or business but wouldn’t be a fit for Renovaré? Why?
If we interviewed you, what is one question you would ask us?

You’ll also record a video that answers in three minutes or less…

How would you explain Renovaré briefly to someone who isn’t familiar?
What kind of person does Renovaré help and how do we help them?
How will you help Renovaré expand social and video channels while maintaining our ethos?
