Since 1899, Birmingham Settlement has been working to create opportunity and choice – connecting and empowering people through action, activities, and shared learning to build and sustain wellbeing for all.
Organisation:Birmingham Settlement
Location:Birmingham Settlement Sports & Community Centre, Kingstanding (hybrid considered)
Salary:£23,000 - 35 hours per week (flexible – occasional evenings/weekends, job share considered)
Founded in 1899, Birmingham Settlement is one of the oldest charities in Birmingham. Part of a movement of social reform activists outraged by the plight of the poor in the 19th century, originally Birmingham Settlement’s work concentrated on providing support to women and families in the seriously deprived St Mary’s area, now known as Newtown.
Now our breadth of work is much wider and reaches more communities in Birmingham. We are now based across north-west Birmingham, with bases in Ladywood and Kingstanding.
We work in an ever changing environment, with new challenges to face, both as an organisation and for our local communities. We adapt the way we work and the services we provide to meet these challenges.
About the Role
Birmingham Settlement is looking for a proactive, creative, and committed individual who can support us in the development and delivery of our income and communications strategy as we continue to invest and develop the charities assets to ensure we provide the services and activities our people want, deserve, and expect.
This is a versatile role, encompassing skills across fundraising and internal and external communications. The role will suit someone with strong written skills along with a good working knowledge of digital communications channels who is comfortable multi-tasking with a willingness to learn and take on new challenges.
To succeed, you will be highly organised with an interest and passion for our cause, you will pay close attention to detail as standard, have a passion for identifying and developing stories that further the Settlement’s objectives, have excellent design and written communication skills with an ability to adapt your tone and voice to engage specific audiences.
A very busy but rewarding and hands on role that cuts across all aspects of the charity as we continue to grow and develop, this is a great opportunity to join one of Birmingham’s oldest charities; to drive participation, support and, ultimately, income at a unique and exciting time.
