The Media Assistant role will suit someone that has an understanding of different social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

• Managing and updating the Ladies social media accounts 
• Writing a match report after each fixture 
• Creating content for social media including graphics and social media posts
• Interviewing Celtic Ladies Manager and player post match
• Creating and editing audio and video content

The role is a voluntary position however is flexible, in that the Media Assistant should only take on tasks when they have the time to do so and will not be expected to complete all of the above tasks.

Ideally, the Media Assistant would need to be present on a matchday which is usually every Sunday.

Celtic Ladies were formed in the summer of 2019 and currently compete in the Cheshire Women’s and Youth Football League.
