This is an exciting opportunity to help Eastbourne Foodbank realise its vision of continuing to be a strong and effective anti-poverty charity challenging social injustice in Eastbourne. To realise this ambition, we need to increase our fundraised income and develop our expertise in different areas of fundraising. This new role will play an important part in helping us do this.

Income from grant-making foundations is an important part of our income mix. The Trusts and Foundations Officer will focus on nurturing our existing trust partners, and identifying and approaching new funding prospects. This will also include working with some local businesses, bringing our cause to life and fostering excellent, lasting, personalised relationships with our business donors.

Key Responsibilities:

Prospect research: Using a range of research resources and tools, you’ll identify and prioritise funders with the propensity and capacity to support our work

Grant writing: Working with colleagues, you’ll write authentic, compelling and targeted funding applications that inspire grant-makers to partner with us and provide high quality financial and other information they require.

Stewardship: You will ensure that our portfolio of ongoing / existing funders are stewarded well. This will involve producing timely funding reports, arranging project visits and providing ongoing information and contact.

You will engage with local businesses in order to grow Eastbourne Foodbank’s income from local businesses. You will develop, monitor and build on delivery of our existing trusts and foundations fundraising portfolio, and build our local business fundraising plan, to support our aim of generating in excess of £300k per annum.

You will research, monitor and maintain a trusts and foundations fundraising pipeline, which will be used to make financial projections in our organisational budget

You will forge strong relationships with colleagues across the wider Trussell network, sharing best practice and learning from other charities across the network. You’ll proactively take advantage of any fundraising training and skills development opportunities and engage with any joint fundraising opportunities.

You will track, analyse, review and improve the performance of our trusts and foundations applications and business fundraising, using these insights to inform and improve our fundraising performance.

We're at a pivotal moment. As we close out one organisational strategy and launch a bold new direction, we need someone to rethink our social channels from the ground up. With a combined following of 600k+ across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn, our youth mental health content sparks millions of engagements a year. This role is a rare chance to take a subject impacting 1 in 5 young people under 25 and turn it into content our audiences actively follow, engage with and feel part of. You'll have real strategic aptitude, a talented team of two ready to be led, and a mandate to be bold.

About this role

The Social Media Manager will own and evolve YoungMinds' social media strategy from the ground up, leading a small, passionate team to create standout, community-led content for a highly engaged audience of 600k+. Our channels are increasingly critical to reaching young people and the parents and adults in their lives - and this role sits right at the centre of mobilising them around our new organisational direction, using insight and creative instinct to reach the people who need us most.

You'll take an audience-first, insight-led approach - finding the right tone and format for every platform. Never clinical. Never performative. Always rooted in genuine community and support. You'll work in a true test-and-learn environment, free to experiment, take creative risks and push our social presence further than it's ever gone.

The role will involve:

• Embodying AJEDI values in content creation - prioritising the lived experience of minoritised young people, including Black, racially minoritised and LGBTQ+ young people
• Leading the development of a refreshed social media strategy across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and emerging platforms
• Turning a sensitive, high-stakes subject into content people actively choose to engage with
• Leading and mentoring a creative team (2 x Social Media Officers, one with a specific focus on video content)
• Championing and safeguarding brand, tone and messaging at every stage
• Collaborating with young people, partners and creators to co-produce authentic stories and campaign
• Overseeing proactive community management, including responding safely to disclosures and safeguarding concerns
• Empowering young people to share their stories safely and confidently
• Working across teams to deliver high-impact content for fundraising, services, marketing and awareness
• Capturing the impact of events and turning real-life stories into content that inspires action
• Leading projects with agencies and internal teams
• Tracking, evaluating and amplifying success through insight
• Overseeing day-to-day social media operations
• Innovating and experimenting to reach, support and inspire young people

Working environment

We are currently working with a hybrid working model, where there is the option of working from home combined with 4-12 days a month of working in the office.

About you

The post holder will have the following:

• Experience shaping and delivering a social media strategy with real strategic ownership
• Experience using excellent written and visual communication and storytelling skills to turn complex, sensitive or systemic issues into engaging content
• Experience managing social media channels on behalf of an organisation, with a following of 100k+
• Experience overseeing community management at scale via a community management platform (e.g. Sprout or equivalent)
• Experience leading and mentoring a team to execute high-quality content and manage competing deadlines
• Ability to deliver compelling, youth-focused content, led by trends and insight
• Ability to take a trauma-informed approach to communication and crisis response
• Candidates will also be assessed on a short written task focused on how they will embody YoungMinds' values around anti-racism, justice, equity, diversity and inclusion in their day-to-day role

We welcome applications from Black and Minoritised, LGBTQ+ groups and those with disabilities, as they are currently under-represented. 

YoungMinds is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we therefore expect all staff and volunteers to do the same. We ask all staff to undertake safeguarding training when they join us.

We are looking for a passionate and people-focused Community Organising Officer to help communities create lasting positive change for nature, climate and local wellbeing.

What you'll be doing: 

This exciting role sits within our Wilder Streets, Wilder Lives programme, which works alongside communities facing barriers to accessing nature and environmental opportunities. Using a community organising approach, you will help local people identify priorities, build connections, develop leadership skills and take action to improve their neighbourhoods for both people and wildlife.

Working closely with residents, community groups, local authorities and project partners, you will support the co-design and delivery of a wide range of initiatives, including community greening projects, volunteering opportunities, sustainable living workshops, environmental training, BioBlitzes and community events.

At the heart of this role is relationship building. You will spend time listening to communities, understanding local needs and strengths, and helping people turn ideas into meaningful action. Through your work, you will empower individuals and groups to become confident leaders and champions for nature in their own neighbourhoods.

You will also have the opportunity to develop your own skills through specialist training in Community Organising and Climate Literacy, alongside learning from experienced partners and colleagues.

Your key responsibilities will include:

Community Organising and Engagement – Building trusted relationships with residents, developing local leaders, facilitating community conversations and supporting communities to identify priorities and take collective action.
Partnership Working – Collaborating with local authorities, grassroots organisations and project partners to deliver a coordinated, place-based approach to community engagement and environmental improvement.
Project Development and Support – Helping communities develop ideas into viable projects, supporting small grants and seed funding opportunities, and enabling local groups to access resources and support.
Events, Training and Volunteering – Supporting and delivering workshops, volunteering activities, environmental training sessions and community events that bring people together and build long-term capacity for change.
Monitoring and Learning – Gathering insights, maintaining records and contributing to project evaluation, reporting and shared learning across the programme.

What we need you to bring:  

You are an enthusiastic, approachable and highly organised individual who is passionate about empowering people and supporting communities to create positive change.

You understand that lasting environmental change happens when local people are at the centre of decision-making, and you are motivated by helping communities develop the confidence, skills and connections needed to make a difference.

You will thrive in this role if you:

Enjoy building relationships and are skilled at connecting with people from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.
Are a confident listener and communicator who can build trust, facilitate conversations and bring people together around shared goals.
Have experience in community engagement, community organising, development work or similar people-centred roles.
Are passionate about social justice, environmental action and creating opportunities for everyone to engage with and benefit from nature.
Have experience working alongside diverse communities, particularly those facing barriers to participation or who have traditionally been underrepresented in the environmental sector.
Can support people to develop ideas, solve problems and turn ambitions into practical action.
Are comfortable working collaboratively with partners, community groups, volunteers and stakeholders.
Have strong organisational skills, can manage competing priorities and maintain accurate records.
Are adaptable, resilient and able to work flexibly in response to community needs.
Are committed to Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging and actively champion these values in your work.

We recognise that local knowledge, lived experience and trusted relationships are invaluable, and we welcome applications from people who already have strong connections to the communities involved in the project. If you are passionate about helping communities lead change for nature and creating a fairer, greener future for everyone, we would love to hear from you.
