Overview and key points on the role | Are you a creative, unflappable communications professional with the emotional intelligence to navigate sensitive stories and diverse audiences? Do you want to lead the day-to-day delivery of bold, unapologetic communications that put survivors at the heart of everything — and help raise vital funds to support them? This is a unique opportunity to join Rape Crisis South London at a pivotal moment, as we launch our first-ever Fundraising & Communications directorate and bring our powerful new brand to life. You’ll own our external and internal comms channels — from social media and newsletters to media relations and website content — driving awareness, donations, and meaningful change. You’ll thrive in a fast-paced, ambitious environment where your ideas and creative energy can shape powerful public narratives. You’ll be a natural relationship-builder who can switch tone instinctively, whether speaking with survivors, brand agencies, journalists, or senior leaders. You’ll work collaboratively with colleagues across the organisation, bringing our mission alive with clarity, empathy, and impact.
What you’ll do:
* Lead the day-to-day delivery of all communications activity, ensuring every message is on-brand, survivor-centred, and bold
* Manage and create content for social media, newsletters, website and press, shaping compelling campaigns that grow our audience and fundraising income
* Work with external agencies and PR consultants to deliver creative campaigns and media opportunities
* Respond sensitively and swiftly to reactive media enquiries and sensitive stories
* Train and support colleagues to use our brand and tone of voice consistently
* Use insight and evaluation to continually improve the impact of our communications
Who you are:
* Highly organized, motivated, and able to manage multiple deadlines in a fast-moving environment
* Emotionally intelligent and confident communicating about sensitive issues with empathy and care
* A skilled storyteller and sharp editor with a keen eye for detail and brand consistency
* Proactive and creative, with a knack for spotting opportunities and turning ideas into action
* Experienced working across digital platforms and managing media relations
* Passionate about ending sexual violence and committed to equality, diversity and inclusion
Why join us? You’ll be part of a bold, survivor-led organisation driving change in South London and beyond. This is a chance to help us flip the script on sexual violence — raising our profile, deepening public understanding, and bringing vital funds to support survivors. You’ll work with a passionate, diverse, and dynamic team who value collaboration and innovation. To find out more about the role and how to apply, please see the attached job description. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and encourage candidates who bring diverse experiences and perspectives.
