Job description
Do you start your day with a cause you care about, and down your tools only after you've told the world about it? If so, we'd love to hear from you.
We are looking for an ambitious communications professional to continue to grow the profile of the Work Rights Centre, and lead on the delivery of our communications strategy.
This is an ideal opportunity for a confident and technically savvy writer, who values the opportunity of working in a small but ambitious organisation, and the chance to use their talent to achieve real social impact.
Responsibilities
This key position revolves around three main responsibilities:
Contributing to our communications strategy
Leading on content creation to grow our public profile and supporter base
Maintaining our marketing materials
You will be working closely with both our researchers and advisers, and publish content across a range of platforms. One day, for instance, you will draft an opinion piece in response to a big policy development. On another day you will be working on client-facing materials such as an FAQ, designed to make that same policy development easy to understand.
Qualifications
We are looking for a candidate who shares our mission, and can connect the dots between our charitable work and the main news agenda. We want to hear from you if you can demonstrate:
- 4 years of experience in communication;
- a track record of successful delivery against communications objectives on social media;
- a track record of successful relationship building and mentions in traditional media;
- familiarity with content management tools (like MailChimp, Buffer etc);
- excellent written English (you know your "it's" from "its");
- a real interest in employment justice for migrant workers.
Apply by 30 July
