The Marblehead Festival of Arts is looking for five volunteers to run its marketing and fundraising. The work ranges from the festival’s website and social media to the thank-you gifts it promises donors and sponsors.

Each role is part-time and takes a few hours a week, according to a newsletter the festival sent Tuesday.

The top post, director of marketing, would oversee brand management, website content, email marketing, social media, communications and promotional materials. The festival said it wants someone with experience leading marketing efforts.

The other four openings are chairperson positions. The communications chairperson would handle day-to-day work on the festival’s website, email marketing and social media channels; the sponsorships chairperson would build relationships with local businesses and corporate partners to secure sponsorships for festival programs and events; the donations chairperson would manage Donor Perfect communications, coordinate fundraising appeals and develop online giving options to grow individual donations; and the fulfillment chairperson would make sure donors and sponsors receive the gifts, benefits and recognition they were promised.

The festival describes itself as a nonprofit, all-volunteer organization that has brought art, music and cultural programs to Marblehead since 1962.

Joseph Tavano is taking inquiries at marketing@marbleheadfestival.org. The announcement did not give a deadline to apply.
