Our campaigns are grounded in the experience of people who have been on the receiving end of these broken systems, and our team mobilises public support to ensure solutions are found and implemented across the country.

We are seeking a national Campaigns Officer who is highly motivated and dynamic, with a passion to improve life for people as they grow older.

Working with colleagues across the Policy and Influencing department, and the wider organisation, the successful candidate will have:

• Strong knowledge of how national campaigns can influence decision makers, including how policy, public affairs and campaigns interact to create positive change.
• Excellent interpersonal skills with experience supporting people to get involved with campaign activity, for example attending an event, contacting their MP or sharing their story.
• Experience of building and maintaining good working relationships with a variety of internal and external stakeholders.
• An understanding of the issues faced by older people.
• Proven ability to write content for a range of platforms and publications, translating complex ideas into simple messages.
• Strong verbal communication skills, able to convey messages in an engaging and succinct way.
• Experience devising engaging and creative activities that people will be able, and want, to take part in.
• Proven ability to work independently, prioritise effectively and meet deadlines.
• Strong IT skills including use of Microsoft Office packages.
