About the Role
We’re looking for a sharp, collaborative and digitally fluent professional who’s ready to hit the ground running. The Digital Senior Manager will be a vital part of Bite Back’s digital machine — managing the tools that power our public voice, supporter journeys and campaigning infrastructure. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives on structure, loves solving digital puzzles, and is hungry to stay at pace with a fast-moving sector. You’ll manage everything from email platforms and analytics dashboards to website fixes, software access and performance insights. You’ll also contribute to campaign execution, helping to implement digital actions with power and polish — including ad support and post-launch optimisation.
You will also take a data‑driven approach to strengthening Bite Back’s digital presence — analysing performance, optimising our campaigns, and ensuring our digital channels work seamlessly together. From managing website and email systems to supporting paid campaigns and supplier relationships, you’ll keep our platforms effective, insight‑led and future‑ready. It’s a role for someone who combines technical fluency with creative curiosity, able to turn analytics into action and digital systems into impact.
If you’re numbers-driven, systems-confident, energised by back-end delivery, and excited to work across a youth-led movement that makes real noise, this is your moment.

Additionally, you will manage the budget for the website, email marketing and social media.
You’ll need strong organisational skills to stay on top of multiple platforms, confident communication to coordinate with suppliers and teammates, and the initiative to lead on projects or solve issues independently. While much of your work will involve behind-the-scenes problem-solving, you’ll be a vital partner to colleagues across campaigns, content and operations. We’re looking for someone who is comfortable taking the lead on digital strategies and operations, but equally happy working as part of a team that values clarity, trust and shared ambition.
