We are CONNECT.

YOUR OPPORTUNITIES
It has never been more important than it is today, for us all to have access to trusted news and information – and from an array of sources asking key questions. Pireaus believes in this principle and is proud to be a partner with CONNECT to help achieve its mission.
​
CONNECT's mission in the world of New Media is to encourage greater discernment, awareness and critical thinking, by making available an expanded catalogue of informative channels. These channels are driven by passionate people who - like us - are searching for greater transparency and TRUTH.
The desire for Positive Change - and the belief we all have a responsibility to help manifest that change - is also central to our ethos. Our sharing of information is central to helping facilitate that Positive Change.
Due to demand building across the world, for reliable news and information, we're looking to expand the team of media professionals - centred on where YOU'RE located in the world - wherever that might be.
Currently there is a range of roles making up CONNECT's media team. Having a history of working in the media industry can be an advantage - but is by no means essential. Whilst existing skillsets are important, CONNECT values fresh perspectives gained in other spheres.
Ongoing training and guidance are an integral feature of these roles. For the right individuals - with natural ability - eagerness to learn - and a passion for what we do and how we do it - you too can be involved in what's fast becoming a worldwide revolution in media.
​We've listed below the opportunities we are now concentrating on. We invite you to take an introductory look at the brief role descriptions and learning opportunities we are currently offering.
NOTE: Pireaus runs inhouse training programmes and workshops for the CONNECT media team. Workshops are also available to equip people wishing to develop and apply new media and communication skills independently of CONNECT.
EDITORS: Local + Subject
As a LOCAL Editor, you'll lead the development and management of your own independent CONNECT media platform, centred on or near your home location. You'll be supported in this role by the editorial and marketing teams.
SUBJECT Editors source, select and prepare thought provoking news and information for CONNECT's Local, National and International readership. In this role, you'll be helping to support all the CONNECT media platforms.
first to mention - our INTRODUCERS
We have a Reward Scheme for people who help us find the people described below:
MARKETEERS
As a Marketeer, you'll be the very face of CONNECT. The role involves working with the local Editorial and Marketing team to nurture CONNECT's relationship with its local partners. ​
It means working face to face with local businesses, traders and artisans, assisting to profile and promote their specialist activities in the local community. Your toolset will comprise a suite of strategies, each seen as uniquely effective.

These are either one or two-day weekend workshops - covering the basics of filmmaking for audio/visual story telling - using inexpensive equipment such as smartphones.
