Do you want to help create exciting and innovative marketing campaigns that will challenge ageism and discrimination and tackle the inequalities that exist in older Age?

We are looking for someone with proven marketing and communication skills across a broad range of traditional and digital projects.

Based in our Marketing Team, the Marketing Officer will play an essential role in supporting the development, coordination and delivery of Independent Age’s key corporate marketing activities.

Working with a highly professional marketing team and our inspiring colleagues throughout the organisation,  you will implement specific marketing campaigns which will identify and drive key audiences to our services and build our community of support.  Additionally, the Marketing Officer will coordinate our shared marketing activities and will lead the gathering and interpreting of insight gained from our digital analytics, market research and interactions with older people.

In many organisations this role is purely fundraising.  We’re looking for someone to design our supporter journeys and as importantly someone to inspire and support them across their many different journeys.  Fundraising is good, but it isn’t everything.

We want to have reached 10,000 supporters and members by 2023. We’ll work on outreach campaigns and need you to make sure new members and new enquirers are given the love and attention they need to get, and stay engaged.

Your role is to create the communications and the processes to support our supporters and members in their engagement with us. We’ve little in place right now, so this is a great time to make your mark.

ROLE

To support our supporters and ensure that they are made to feel welcome;  that they can find the information they need, can get involved in a way that suits them, are aware of the services they can access, take part and vote as members, stand or vote for Trustees, attend the AGM, are supported in reaching out to others, are acknowledged, thanked and are kept informed and inspired.   

ABOUT YOU

You enjoy writing and have an easy, relaxed style. You will be at home in the social media environment.  Alongside your great communication skills (is it wrong to hope you stammer?) you are analytical - able to see the bigger picture – keen to drill down on user journeys and set up processes capable of supporting and tracking the different paths our supporters take – whether that be fundraising, campaigns, volunteering or just kept inspired. And convert passers by into fully engaged members and supporters. 

SUPPORTER JOURNEYS

You will start by mapping the routes people (can) take to get involved – and set up systems and communications (emails, tweets, letters, thank yous, information packs) to encourage them to stay engaged and involved.

You will work with mailchimp, hootesuite and other platforms to ensure supporters are kept informed via a channel which suits them. You’ll work with our Salesforce Administrator to ensure we capture all relevant data, segment our communications and monitor impact. Don’t be afraid to rethink how we do things.  Take a look at Facebook Support Group, Twitter and Insta – how do we use these channels to convert people into members?

A portion of our supporters have been with us for up to 40 years, others are fresh in.  We’ve enquiries in from parents, from students, from those struggling at work and from rebels keen to campaign.  You will need to be systematic and structured in your approach if we are to provide consistent care for all of our supporters.

While your communications will capture and inspire, this needs to be backed up with good structured admin and planning skills.  You’ll design the pathways for fundraisers and runners – from the info packs through to the certificates and thank yous; you’ll have your sights set on high volume recruiting during International Stammering Awareness Day; have a plan for students; have the welcome email off pat.  And because you are ambitious, keen to demonstrate the value you bring and show your achievements, you’ll set up monitoring and tracking from the start.

If this is you, come and join the team.

Job title: Community Neutering Officer
Salary: Up to £28,269.18 per annum plus a home workers allowance and branded company van
Location: Homebased covering Northern Ireland
Job type: Permanent
Hours per week: 35
Closing date: 30 September 2020
Interview date: 12 and 15 October 2020

We are seeking a committed and enthusiastic individual to join our successful Neutering team as a Community Neutering Officer covering Northern Ireland.

Cats Protection is the UK’s leading feline welfare charity with a nationwide network of centres, volunteer-run branches and charity shops. During 2019 we helped around 191,000 cats and kittens, an average of 520 per day.

Community Neutering makes a real difference to the cats and kittens helping them to lead happier and healthier lives. Our subsidised neutering campaigns provide financial assistance to much loved pets as well as strays and ferals who are not lucky enough to have an owner to care for them. All of our projects have human behaviour change principles embedded within them and this is an important measurement of our work.

As a Community Neutering Officer, you will be involved in helping to deliver the regional neutering projects and initiatives to local communities. This will include working with community and social groups, attending regular community meetings and delivering talks and presentations. You will be recruiting volunteers and supporting them with projects in their communities whilst managing the progress of both individual areas and whole projects. The main focus is raising awareness of the importance of neutering, which is key as part of responsible pet ownership.

You will need to have excellent organisational skills, initiative and the ability to engage with people and communities at all levels. You will be a strong self-starter with a passion for helping cats in need with a positive attitude. You will have experience with working within communities or social enterprises and developing relationships with different types of community groups. An animal science or welfare background is also desirable but not essential. You will need a full UK driving licence.

Do you care deeply about the welfare of older adults?

Do you have experience in social care or working with people with a wide variety of needs and abilities?

Are you an experienced, highly organised and creative groups facilitator?

If you answered yes to all of the above, this could be the role for you!

We’re looking for an experienced and skilled individual who will deliver a package of support, including one to one home assessments and running group activities, to help reduce loneliness, improve health and wellbeing and increase older people and their carer’s opportunities to connect to their local community.

What we do

Time & Talents is a lively, busy community centre in the heart of Rotherhithe, SE16.  Set in a leafy heritage building, and ‘T&T2’, our second venue in Surrey Quays Shopping Centre, we offer something for everyone. With a history of 133 years of supporting people of all ages in Rotherhithe and Bermondsey, we bring people together for mutual support, fun and friendship, with a wide range of services and activities for older people and other adults, along with volunteering and children and families’ projects.

We work with around 400 older people and their carers a year, many of whom are very frail and elderly. Sadly, though they very often get left out: their friendships and networks disappear, family and friends move away, and they end up very lonely and isolated. Once that happens, mental and physical illness too often follow. We believe that surrounding older people with a welcoming, nurturing community, is vital to improving and maintaining their wellbeing. We also know they want to thrive, create, feel a sense of purpose, and continue living their lives to the full, for their whole lives.

In response to this we offer one to one support and case-working, befriending, and an exciting programme of social and support groups with fully escorted transport. We also run fun events and intergenerational activities to bring the whole community together. From reminiscence, art, music, and health and wellbeing advice, to outings and new and exciting experiences, no two days are the same.

The role

In this role, you'll deliver some of our existing groups, including our Happy Mondays group, Friday Social Club and a lively Stroke Club. With the support of volunteers and community members, you'll coordinate other smaller peer-led and tutor-led groups (from exercise classes to a mental health support group for older women). You will also take responsibility for a new caseload of referrals and carry out home assessments on clients to identify their individual needs. Working closely with health, adult social care, housing departments and voluntary sector organisations, as well as liaising with referees, you will work hard to ensure clients’ and their carers needs are met, providing help with anything from applying for making adaptions in the home to supporting them to get involved in one of our many groups or projects.

A key part of the role is involving older adults and carers themselves in the delivery of the programme as volunteers, and involving people of all ages and backgrounds from the local community - from NHS health professionals to local artists and students. You will also need to build individual relationships of trust with older participants, and work closely with our Neighbourhood Care Coordinator and Older People’s Programme Manager to ensure we take a joined-up approach to caring for individuals.

About you

The role needs someone creative, energetic, passionate, but importantly, also highly organised. You must be as comfortable making sure a minibus schedule is up to date, as you are delivering craft activities or quizzes, or as comfortable hosting NHS professionals delivering healthcare advice, as you would be helping run an escorted visit to a local farm. You need to have lots of ideas, and be highly ambitious, but also be able to make your ideas happen. 

Most of all, we need someone who cares deeply about the welfare of older people and their carers, and is able to react quickly and appropriately to emerging issues – especially to the more serious care issues we inevitably encounter. While appropriate training will be given, we are looking for candidates with some social care experience ideally.

About us

We are an energetic, experienced, and passionate team of 15, with a strong sense of shared purpose and a lively sense of humour. You’ll have the chance to make a big contribution to a growing, ambitious and innovative organisation which has doubled its reach and impact in recent years.

This role is full time, with flexibility for regular evening and occasional weekend working.

Time & Talents is wholly committed to inclusion and diversity, and to building a culture and environment where everyone is appreciated for the unique person that they are. We actively encourage applications from a broad range of backgrounds and experiences.

If you would like an informal chat about the job, please email us with your phone number and a suitable time for us to call.

The closing date is 09:00 on Monday 19 October.

TO APPLY: All applications to be submitted online via CharityJob.  Send a CV and a cover letter of no more than two sides of A4, explaining why you want the job and how your experience relates to the job description and person specification.

IMPORTANT: We’ll use cover letters to assess applications alongside CVs. Please ensure you take the time to include a well-written cover letter as detailed above.  We won’t assess applications without one.

INTERVIEWS: First round interviews will take place w/c 19 October.  Shortlisted candidates will be invited to a second interview the following week.

Coronavirus/COVID-19: the safety and wellbeing of our current and future employees remains a top priority, therefore interviews will be conducted remotely by video if necessary.

As our founder and CEO approaches retirement, we are seeking someone with a God-led heart, people skills and hands-on leadership to take this charity into its next chapter.

• Heart.  The post has a Genuine Occupational Requirement for the holder to be a practicing and committed Christian.  Someone who will continue to seek God’s will for this charity through the Holy Spirit, with a heart for saving lives for Christ through the alleviation of poverty.  Previous experience of International Development would be ideal but not essential.
• People skills.  The post requires someone that can develop and maintain effective personal relationships with a wide range of UK funders and supporters - securing and maintaining income is the most significant part of the role.  Hence excellent communication, public speaking and networking skills are needed.  Experience of working in Africa or a developing country, with the cultural understanding required, would again be ideal but not essential.  A current DBS will be required on appointment.
• Leadership.  The post also needs someone with proven leadership and management experience, both for the UK office of two part-time (admin and finance) staff and to mentor the Amigos Uganda team.

Amigos Worldwide is an inspirational Christian charity based in North Devon which has been delivering poverty alleviation projects in Uganda for the past 20 years.  Amigos works alongside Ugandans and their churches to bring about sustainable and lasting change through education, vocational training, conservation farming and clean water, reaching over 40,000 people annually.

Embracing integral mission, Amigos is increasingly Ugandan-led, with Kira Farm Development Centre as a hub for vocational training, but also out in the rural communities encouraging local churches to develop and deliver projects.  Through this we are seeing communities transformed; able to provide food for their families, educate their children, generate income, access clean water, reduce domestic violence and strengthen faith.  Amigos Uganda is some way from being fully independent but that is the ultimate aspiration.

The charity is well-established with a strong support base and an annual income of £400,000. Funded through regular and one-off donations, grants and school trips which provide an opportunity to both raise funds and introduce young people to what God is doing through Amigos.

This is a wonderful opportunity to make a real difference by taking forward our work with churches and others who are committed to transformation in the lives and communities of some of the poorest and most vulnerable people in the world.

Please send your CV and a covering letter, detailing how you fit this position.

If you have any queries over the role or application, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to join the current Amigos CEO, staff team and trustees for a day in North Devon to see if Amigos is right for them, and if they are right for Amigos.
