You will lead engagement activities across the UK, through social media to increase traffic to Commonplace websites, getting more people involved in shaping their local communities.

Commonplace is a Series A start-up that connects people with the places they live, work or play to accelerate positive change. We do this because communities that host inclusive conversations also create trusted collaborations, which improve the quality of life and fabric of their neighbourhood.
By creating open, honest dialogue we help put power back in the hands of the people to help shape their local environment. We also help reduce the biased 'echo chambers' created by social media. In this way we are truly a 'tech-for-good' company.
