What do I do for the iia?
I provide a comprehensive communications service for the iia, managing communications across the organisation and its International Meeting on Radiation Processing (IMRP) and Phytosanitary and Food Irradiation Platform (PFiP) initiatives.
Website management
I manage the day-to-day content and updates for the iia website, making sure information, publications, news and events are accurate, accessible and up to date. I also work with external web providers on technical changes, website development and more complex requirements.
I plan and manage LinkedIn communications, including content calendars, posts, graphics and engagement. I also manage LinkedIn Groups, and engage with external content that references or promotes the iia and its work.
