At YMCA Milton Keynes & Northamptonshire, young people are at the heart of everything we do. We exist to ensure young people have a safe place they can call home, people they can trust, and the support they need to fulfil their potential.

We’re excited to be creating a new Digital Communications Officer role. A brilliant opportunity for a creative, organised and values-driven communicator who wants to use digital skills to make a genuine difference.

About the role

This is a hands-on digital communications role where you’ll help shape how we show up online and how our impact is shared with the world.

You’ll work as part of our Communications and Campaigns team to raise awareness of YMCA Milton Keynes and YMCA Northamptonshire, as well as our social enterprises, including our conference facilities and Home Ground Café.

You’ll be responsible for creating engaging, timely content across our digital channels and helping ensure our communications are consistent, inclusive and impactful.

Your work will include:

• Running our social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn)

You’ll collaborate closely with colleagues across the organisation to understand what’s happening on the ground and share it in a way that connects with different audiences.

Who we’re looking for

This role would suit someone who is creative, organised and enthusiastic about digital communications, and who enjoys working in a fast-paced, purpose-led environment.

You don’t need to have worked in the charity sector before — we’re more interested in your attitude, potential and values.

You’ll bring:

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Experience using social media and digital channels

• Confidence using design tools such as Canva (and others a bonus)

• Good planning skills and the ability to manage a varied workload

• A keen eye for detail and pride in producing high-quality work

• Curiosity, creativity and a willingness to learn

At YMCA Milton Keynes & Northamptonshire, our values guide everything we do: Belong, Contribute and Thrive.

We offer:

• A supportive, inclusive and values-led workplace

• The chance to help shape a brand new role

• Opportunities to learn, develop and grow your digital skills

• Work that has real social impact

• A collaborative culture where your ideas are welcomed

Some evening or occasional event work may be required, but we work flexibly and supportively to make this manageable.
