Web Content Assistant - Queen Mary
The Digital Content team in Queen Mary is looking to recruit three students to complete their CMS (content management system) training. You will be paid to complete the online training (4 hours) and attend a workshop (1 hour) about how we build webpages at Queen Mary.
Once you have passed this training, you will be added to a pool of students to which website building jobs can be promoted throughout the year.
