Staff Openings

If you are intersted in any of the following staff positions, please e-mail Christine and let her know which one. If accepted you will be asked to fill out the form on the staff page - but only the information you are comfortable with sharing.

»General Staff Member
A general staff member does most of the things the webmistress does and therefore requires the most time out of all of these positions. This position currently involves posting news, creating and editing pages, working on the gallery and video archive and looking for/adding affiliates. They should be familiar with cPanel, an FTP client of their choice, WordPress, Coppermine Gallery, PHPmotion and Affiliationally or be willing to learn. Using Google Alerts is recommended so they can receive news items via e-mail and post any relevent articles that have not already been posted on the site. They should also be willing to learn about other scripts just in case more are used as the site continues to grow. It is recommended they understand coding but it is not a necessity as some pages have pre-formatted bases.

»News Poster
A news poster must either be familiar with WordPress or be willing to learn. It is recommended that they be willing to set it up so they can receive Google Alerts to receive news items via e-mail and be able to scour the internet for news that is current and has not already been posted on the site by anyone else. They should also know which news sites are more reliable than others.

»Gallery Moderator
A gallery moderator must either be familiar with Coppermine Gallery and an FTP client of their choice or be willing to learn. They will be making sure all comments made on images in the gallery are appropriate and deleting those that aren't. They will be working closely with the webmistress who will be occasionally sending them new images to add to the gallery.

»Image Collector
An image collector should have access to image sites and/or forums to be able to find new high quality images for the gallery. Solely using Google's image search will not be acceptable although it can be used in addition to image sites and/or forums. This job does not require being familiar with Coppermine Gallery as they will be sending the images to the webmistress who will sort through them before either adding them to the gallery herself or sending them to a gallery moderator to add.

»Media Manager
A media manager should be able to rip video and audio files from various sources for our video archive and be familiar with, or be wiling to learn about, PHPmotion. While YouTube can be a great source for videos, it should not be the only source used for videos for a number of reasons but partially because sometimes it is difficult to tell which videos are fan-made and which aren't.

»Helper
A helper does not have any one specific job. They are there to help the webmistress or other staff members when they need it. One day they could be looking up information online, adding information to pages or watching episodes of Doctor Who, Torchwood or The Sarah Jane Adventures to find some points of interest and the next they could be doing something entirely different. Anyone who applies to be a helper should be flexible when it comes to what they do and have room in their lives for some spontaneity. All of their work will then be sent back to the staff member who asked for help. They should also inform the webmistress what they are and are not willing or capable of doing.
