Campaigns Manager Jobs
Do you have a drive to tackle inequality, and would you like to activate world class campaigns like This Girl Can? Have you got significant marketing/innovation experience developing and executing strategies and great ideas to support behaviour change? If so, please read on…
At Sport England, we believe that when we move, we’re stronger. That’s true for each of us, and it’s true for our communities and society. We know that being active can contribute not just to physical wellbeing, but also crucially improve mental health, build self-confidence and be a positive force for greater social inclusion and community cohesion.
To enable that, being active needs to feel relevant and possible for all sections of society. That is why our mission is to make sport and physical activity available to everyone regardless of age, background or ability. For many that will be through traditional sports and games, but for others it will not. We need to create an environment where everyone can find something that works for them. The Head of Campaign Activation is key to this mission.
This exciting role sits within the marketing and partnerships team of the Digital, Marketing and Communications Directorate and will focus on reducing the gap between male and female participation in sport and physical activity by improving the way sport and physical activity are delivered to women and girls.
In this role, you will lead on the project management, delivery and evaluation of a portfolio of existing campaign activation projects. The projects all revolve around Sport England’s This Girl Can (TGC) campaign to build women and girls’ confidence to be active, regardless of shape, size and ability.

About Global Witness
Our goal is a more sustainable, just and equal planet where humanity is propelled forward, away from the toxic practices of the past. This means fossil fuels staying in the ground, climate-critical forests standing tall and those on the frontline fighting the climate crisis, who defend our planet, are protected from persecution and attacks.
We want justice for those disproportionately affected by the climate crisis: people in the global south, indigenous communities and communities of colour, women and younger generations. And that the necessary energy transition is done equitably and with the interests of those groups in mind.
To do this we have to stand up to the corporate drivers of the climate crisis - the fossil fuel companies that continue to extract and burn when the science is telling us to stop, the global banks financing deforestation and the businesses that turn a blind eye, or worse are complicit in, attacks on defenders.
For us to succeed, we need to embody the principles we fight for. Global Witness strives for cohesion, solidarity, and inclusion as only together can we protect one another and the planet to build a better and more just future.
About the role
It has never been a deadlier time for land and environmental defenders to protect their community, way of life, or environment. At Global Witness we’re campaigning alongside them, making sure their voices are heard and taking their fight to the corridors of power.
As a Campaign Strategy Lead you will lead strategic and impactful campaigns and investigations, accelerating international action to increase recognition and protection of land and environmental defenders who are standing up to climate wrecking industries.
About you
You’ll bring your significant experience and expertise in developing, leading and delivering campaign strategies with demonstrated change.
You embrace collaboration, bringing compelling and authentic communication skills where you listen, engage and influence at all levels, with a broad range of individuals and organisations.
You have demonstrable experience in creating a culture of teamwork where people feel empowered, respected, valued and accountable for the work they do.
Working for us
Global Witness has a talented team of people worldwide with offices in London, Washington DC, and Brussels. We aim to be a diverse and inclusive place to work. We value new perspectives, original ideas, and different ways of working. We believe that diverse views and experiences improve the way we do our work. We do our best to make our jobs accessible to all regardless of gender, ethnicity, age, disability, sexual orientation, or identity.
We offer an excellent benefits package including a competitive salary and 25 days annual leave (excl. Bank Holidays). We also offer healthcare insurance, wellbeing days and policies to support you during key life events.
This role is based in London and therefore to be considered you must be able to provide proof of eligibility to work in the UK. We are working under a hybrid working model which requires at least 2 days in the office.
Applying
Please send in your CV (max 2 pages) and your responses to the shortlisting questions below to us by Midnight 4th April

1) Describe a campaign you lead and its impact.
2) Describe how you ensure partnerships are inclusive.
