As our Social Media Officer, your work will be dynamic, creative and deeply meaningful.
Here’s how you’ll make a difference:

* Lead our social media presence with purpose: From Facebook to TikTok, you’ll manage and grow our platforms creatively and carefully, ensuring every post reflects our values and connects with hearts.
* Shape strategy and spark engagement: You’ll help shape our social media strategy, aligning it with our wider goals. You’ll also monitor performance, share insights, and adapt content to keep it fresh, relevant and impactful.
* Create content that moves people: You’ll produce short-form videos, graphics, and written posts that inspire action and deepen connection. You’ll also capture and edit real-time content at events and key moments.
* Collaborate across teams and with influencers: You’ll work closely with internal teams and external partners to amplify our message, support campaigns, and explore new ways to engage audiences.
* Respond with wisdom and grace: In moments of crisis or opportunity, you’ll help shape our voice by responding with clarity, compassion, and confidence.
What You’ll Bring:
A foundation of experience. You have at least two years of experience managing social media content and channels in a professional setting, ideally within a charity or organisational context.
A gift for communication. You write and speak with clarity, warmth and purpose. You know how to adapt your tone to different audiences and create content that connects deeply.
Creative storytelling skills. You’re confident in capturing and editing short-form videos, photos and graphics that bring stories to life and reflect the heart of our mission.
Confidence with creative tools. You’re familiar with tools like Canva, Adobe Creative Suite, CapCut or Premiere Pro and can use them to create engaging, on-brand content.
Strong organisational ability. You can manage multiple projects with care and attention and are comfortable working with agencies or freelancers to bring ideas to life.
A heart for learning and growth. You’re curious about how social media is evolving and enjoy exploring new ways to share stories and engage supporters.
