Marketing Manager

Posted: 25 October 2006 / Last reviewed August 2008

In order to generate further sales of Fairly Traded products, the directors of the shop now need to dramatically raise the shop profile and hence generate a significant increase in sales.

We are seeking a person experienced in marketing hand crafted products in the retail sector who is prepared to generate practical proposals for achieving the above.

This is a voluntary position, demanding a minimum of one evening per month, but with the reward of making a real difference to the lives of marginalised, small scale artisans and farmers in the world's poorest countries.

Any persons interested in supporting the directors in this role should contact Mr P Church via the shop.
