About us

We work with organisations that play a crucial role in improving society. Our clients have been at the forefront of policy changes that improve school food, conserve the ocean, and scale interventions that protect children in war.

The hard work of getting these kind of policy changes through can be dry and technical: to convince an government official that one policy solution is better than another can require a lot of debate, evidence production, and thinking about implementation.

That is where our clients are strong. Where we can help them – and where you will be helping them – is by ensuring that the background noise around the policy issue is productive to them achieving that goal.

The job

We’re looking for a social media hot shot. You’ll have an instinctive sense of what will (and won’t) work on various platforms. You’ll have that instinct because you’ve done it all before, by creating content for an organisation or campaign (or for yourself!) We want weird, atypical, challenging; someone who will push the boat out.

We are not looking for the stereotypical and generic social media content that you see most places publishing. And we are not looking for someone to put a prompt into AI and publish the output.

You’ll be using your content creation skills on campaigns to change legislation, on organisational social media accounts to make them stand out from the ‘blob’, and quite possibly on Cast from Clay’s own channels.

The kinds of people that thrive at Cast from Clay are intellectually curious, are open to challenge, and care about the details. Most importantly, they prize clarity of thought. In today’s world we are overwhelmed with information and content. Knowing what they think and being able to explain why is, to our minds, one of the most important skills of today.

It’s worth saying that we don’t care what your political views are, as long as you have some–the team has a mix of views.

What we are looking for 

You will have:

• A strong understanding of how each social platform works. You will be familiar with audience engagement, community management, and platform algorithms.
• Experience in using tools to track, analyse, and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) to determine content effectiveness and inform future strategies.
• Skills to develop and publish high-quality, engaging content (text, image, video) across socials, often utilising scheduling platforms. The content has to be tailored to distinct brand voices.
• A deep understanding of what social media current trends are.

If you feel like you don’t meet 100% of the criteria, please don’t let that stop you. If you love the sound of this role and have a strong foundation in social media, we would love to hear from you.

Note: This is an immediate hire. We are reviewing applications on a rolling basis, so please don't wait to apply.

Why Cast from Clay?

The kinds of people that thrive at Cast from Clay are intellectually curious, are open to challenge, and care about the details. Most importantly, they prize clarity of thought. In today’s world we are overwhelmed with information and content. Knowing what they think and being able to explain why is, to our minds, one of the most important skills of today.

It’s worth saying that we don’t care what your political views are, as long as you have some–the team has a mix of views.

What we offer

We offer a competitive benefits package for all our positions, including enhanced parental leave, sabbaticals, and training budgets.

• Office: we work from our offices in Vauxhall on Tuesdays and Thursdays. You’re welcome to use the office more frequently than that if you wish.
• Home office allowance: we’ll make a £150 contribution towards kitting out your home workspace.
• Flexible working: tell us how you work best and we’ll do what we can to make it happen – including if you want to spend time working from abroad.
• Monthly team socials: we like spending time together so every few weeks we come up with ideas for things to do together. That’s included board games over pizza, ice skating, movie nights, playing a VR game together and going on llama safari at our local city farm.
• Training: you’ll get up to £500 annual training budget to spend on your professional development. 
• Pension: we will pay 5% of your salary, matching the 5% you pay, to make a total of 10% annual contributions.
• Holidays: we offer 25 days holiday per year, plus bank holidays, and we close the office over Christmas.

Interested?

If this sounds like you, please apply by sending us: 

1. Links to the 5 pieces of social media content you’ve created that you are proudest of.
2. Your CV (no more than 2 pages).

We expect to receive a lot of applications for this role. To help yours stand out, please give us a couple of sentences in your email as to why you want to work at Cast from Clay. 

It’s also worth saying that we want to hear your genuine voice, so please don’t use AI to write this. Not least because there will be lots of people who will use AI, and it’s always amusing for us when a bunch of very different people all write the same thing…!

Things to note

• You need to have permission to work in the U.K. already – we cannot sponsor visas for this role.
• We are an equal opportunities employer and we are determined to ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of gender, age, class, disability, religion, belief, sexual orientation, marital status, or race, or is disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justifiable.

Barnardo's is seeking an empathetic and child led individual who can work within a dynamic and fast-paced environment using their strong organisational, communication and time management skills to support children in the secure estate.

This part-time position (Children's Rights and Advocacy Worker – Project Worker 2) is based within Oakhill Secure Training Centre, which accommodates children aged between 12-18 years, who are in custody, either sentenced or on remand.  Barnardo's refers to Young Offender Institutions (YOI) and Secure Training Centres (STC) as the ‘Secure Estate'.

Barnardo's is commissioned by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) to provide an Independent Children's Rights and Advocacy (ICRAS) Service to children accommodated in a secure setting. The service is known to children as Barnardo's: Your Rights, Your Voice, and currently works within  four Young Offender Institutes,  one Secure Training Centre and one  Secure Children's home. The ICRAS service is child led and independent of the secure estate; our service is delivered within Oakhill STC to ensure children can freely access support for a range of issues linked to their needs, rights & experiences of custody, resettlement, and safeguarding.  As such this is a child-facing service, and at times involves lone working in the establishments, so we are seeking someone who can see the child, not the offence.

We hold ‘voice' at the heart of all we do, therefore we feel the role is best described by someone who is currently working in this sector: “The role is a Children's Rights and Advocacy role, which means it is our job to empower the children we work with and help them to understand that what they think, what they feel and what they want, really matters. We can speak on behalf of children to ensure their voice is heard and we also have the opportunity to help them to find the tools and confidence to raise their voices for themselves.  Advocacy and Children's Rights support is particularly crucial in the secure estate because children are away from home, family and champions, and also because children in secure estate are some of the most vulnerable children in society; they have often faced considerable adversity, disadvantage and discrimination prior to arriving into custody and they might not, therefore, be equipped with the skills needed to articulate their concerns. Through the work you do with a child such as  simply helping them make contact with friends or family on the outside, to helping them with concerns they may have in relation todiscrimination, resettlement or safeguarding issues, you  may be the one person telling them that  they matter for the very first time.”

The position (Children's Rights and Advocacy Worker – Project Worker 2) is line managed by a Team Manager, reporting to an off-site manager. The post holder will need to be able to work autonomously, working to the requirements of the contract and the regime of the STC. The secure estate is a highly structured environment; as a Barnardo's service we deliver independent advocacy and support for a range of issues, whilst still having to follow and adhere to this structure.

This role includes lone working in this challenging secure environment. It is, therefore, critical that the successful candidate can follow guidance and policy and is able to take proactive and individual responsibility to understand and access the service support mechanisms.  This role requires the worker to be onsite for their contracted hours, working remotely only for occasional training or meetings. The advocacy team work on a rota system with set hours each week, which includes weekends and bank holidays. Applicants should also be aware, that due to the nature of working within secure estate, the vetting and induction process can take several months to complete.

When completing your application please refer to your skills, knowledge and experience in relation to the Additional Information, Person Specification and Job Description document. This should be done with an understanding of the context of the service described, including advocacy and safeguarding.  

This is a part-time vacancy with 25.5 hours available per week.

Please note due to the high volume of applications for some posts, this advert might close before the displayed closing date. We recommend that you apply for this role as soon as possible.

Pay & Reward Framework

We know that our colleagues go above and beyond in delivering our vital work, driven by their passion and commitment to Barnardo's values.  We also know that we can only realise our ambitions and achieve better outcomes for more children, thanks to the talent, hard work and creativity of our people. 

For all these reasons, we are committed to a new approach to pay and reward, to ensure it is fair, attractive and progressive, which was rolled out in April 2023. This is a positive change for the charity, and a part of our People & Culture Strategy. It will assist us in supporting colleagues to belong, thrive and grow in their colleague journey at Barnardo's and in time will offer clear routes of progression for colleagues in both their career and their pay. 

Whilst the full pay band and salary range is advertised, our approach to starting salaries is to appoint between the minimum to mid-point of the pay band – this ensures that pay steps are available to reward our colleagues annually based on their contribution to excellence and alignment to our values and behaviours.  More details on Barnardo's pay framework can be found upon application.
