Would you like to share your gift for communication, organisation and creativity to improve the lives of isolated older people in Southwark?
Link Age Southwark is a local charity whose vision is for friendly local communities where people over the age of 60 and those living with a diagnosis of dementia can thrive.
We are seeking an organised and dynamic storyteller to draw in an audience of potential funders, local partners and community volunteers in support of our vital work with older people experiencing loneliness.
As well as helping to maintain an engaging website and social media presence, this role will also support the delivery of fundraising events and campaigns, and the development of local community and corporate partnerships. You will also be creating physical and digital marketing resources and helping to manage a database of donors and other supporters.
This is a busy and rewarding role giving you the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of older people. We believe it is a great opportunity for someone to further develop their repertoire of skills, while gaining insight and experience within the charitable sector.
We'd love to hear from you.
