Peterhead RNLI seeks new Volunteer Press Officer
Peterhead RNLI Lifeboat Station is looking for a volunteer to join the existing team in the role of Lifeboat Press Officer.
Peterhead RNLI Lifeboat Station is located on the most easterly point of mainland Scotland and operates in the UK’s largest mackerel and herring port.
It currently houses a Tamar class all-weather lifeboat and its volunteer crew launched 20 times in 2021, coming to the aid of 23 people and saving 6 lives.
Crewed by volunteers, funded by public donations and answering the call of help day or night whatever the weather. The RNLI has an incredible story to tell, could you be the person to help tell the story of how volunteers in your community are working to save lives at sea?
The role of Lifeboat Press Officer is to build and maintain friendly relationships with local press, radio, television, and online media, keeping the community informed of operational activity by promoting newsworthy rescues and lifeboat station events.
This is a great opportunity to join a motivated and enthusiastic local team and have the satisfaction of contributing to saving lives at sea.
