I’m looking for someone practical, reliable and people-oriented to help support my creative business, Emerging Hermit.

You don't need to be an expert in marketing, poetry or business. A willingness to learn, communicate and contribute is more important. The role The work will be casual and flexible, with the main recurring commitment being support around markets every two weeks. Additional tasks will arise between markets depending on what needs to be done.

This is an opportunity to become involved in a growing independent creative project and help build something that combines art, poetry, products, workshops and community.

If you're someone who enjoys being helpful, meeting people and helping creative ideas become tangible projects, I'd love to hear from you.
