Content and communications officer jobs

At Your Place, we have one simple goal: to solve homelessness, one person at a time – and this role plays a vital part in making that possible. Based in Newham, where the levels of homelessness are the highest in the country, our work has never been more needed.

We are looking for someone with experience in communications within the charity sector. If you have a passion for telling stories that matter, and are skilled in content creation, social media and email marketing, we’d love to hear from you.

This role is at the heart of our efforts to increase awareness and inspire action through the power of storytelling. You will create compelling content across digital, editorial and creative platforms, helping to engage our supporters, build our community and contribute to the growth of our charity.

Your work will directly support our fundraising efforts and enable us to reach a wider audience, making a lasting impact on the lives of people experiencing homelessness.

Darren, who was living in a shed after losing a loved one, is now in stable housing and completing a course to get a role in construction. His journey is just one example of the many lives we’ve positively impacted. You’ll be at the heart of gathering and sharing these stories in a way that is ethical, trauma-informed and always respectful of the individual’s journey.

Before you apply

One of the3million’s core values is equity - we are people led, we value diversity and are enriched by differences. We strive to listen to, engage with and represent the broadest range of people.

If you are from a background that is underrepresented in the migration sector - for example you are from a community that experiences racism, or you have lived experience of migration, or you are a disabled person, or you did not go to University or had free school meals as a child - we strongly encourage you to apply.

We believe our work will be stronger with greater diversity. the3million welcomes the whole person to work, and we understand that each of us brings our experiences, our backgrounds and our own unique lens to what we do.

Note on AI applications.

AI is a useful tool but please be aware that it can be reasonably easy to spot when an applicant has copied and pasted directly from ChatGPT. In this role you will not be discouraged from using AI, but you will be expected to write creatively, persuasively and to a high standard yourself. Please use your application as an opportunity to show us that you can do this!
