From Bernie Sanders to Greenpeace UK, progressive organisations are using digital mobilisation to activate hundreds of thousands of campaigners and raise millions of pounds online. Forward Action believes that a digital mobilisation model - where organisations use digital channels to drive hundreds of thousands of supporters to take advocacy, fundraising and volunteering actions - can revolutionize campaigning and fundraising in the NGO sector. However, its potential is still largely untapped in the UK. We help progressive organisations build digital mobilisation programmes and, as our Marketing and Partnerships Officer, you will work to help grow the number of organisations using a digital mobilisation model to drive real-world change.
You will manage our online marketing programme, working to keep establishing Forward Action as a thought leader in digital mobilisation and finding ways to share learnings from our innovations for the rest of the sector to benefit from. You’ll run the day-to-day operations of our partnerships programme, acting as the primary point of contact for prospective partners and delivering the administrative and coordination work needed to move organisations smoothly through from first interaction to a productive partnership. And finally, you’ll have the opportunity to develop your skills in relationship building, supporting our Partnerships Director to build stakeholder buy-in on projects.
If you’re passionate about digital marketing, enjoy building relationships, are well organised and would be excited to help spread digital mobilisation across the charity sector, this job is for you.
This is a permanent role, with the freedom to work both in our London office and remotely from home, although during lockdown you will, of course, only work from home. Once lockdown is fully lifted, it’s likely you will need to be able to travel to meetings in London once or twice a week. You can work either four or five days a week. Applications close Sunday 2 August.
Who we are
Forward Action is a digital mobilisation agency for progressive causes. We help our partner organisations reach new supporters, then mobilise them to become activists and donors. We have been in the engine room of some of the most successful election and charity digital campaigns of the last few years, helping our partners add millions of new supporters to their email lists, raise more money online (from more donors) and create campaigns that have led to real-world change.
Our values are critical to us: we will only work with causes that make the world a better place. You will get to work with some of the most inspiring and impactful organisations in the sector - such as Greenpeace, Cancer Research UK, and Amnesty International - and spend your days helping win progress on everything from climate change to homelessness.
You will be working at the cutting edge of digital mobilisation. We trust in data rather than our gut instincts, so we are constantly testing and iterating in our work in order to challenge assumptions and drive better results. We are an agile, fast-moving team, and you will have the opportunity to rapidly develop and expand your skills and experience.
One of our fundamental values is that all our work should drive real-world, measurable results. But we also believe that the greatest progressive impact we can have is to give our partner organisations the skills, knowledge and culture they need to do what we do themselves. We want to spread our skills and way of working across the progressive sector, not make our partners dependent on us. You will play a key role in this in your job.

-
Manage our marketing and thought leadership work
-
Identify and apply for opportunities for Forward Action to speak at conferences and events, and occasionally speak at them yourself (if this is something you’d like to do)

-
-
Run the day-to-day operation of our partnerships programme
-
Be the primary point of contact for prospective partners over email, from their first interaction with us through to the point we start work together
-
Identify and organise opportunities for our partnerships team to share advice and learnings with both current and prospective partners
-
Run our project setup process, ensuring we’re completing all the administrative setup work needed for each new project
-
Run our invoicing process, using our bookkeeping system to send out invoices for each completed project
-
Assist with quoting and, occasionally, proposal writing for smaller projects
-
-
Develop your skills in building relationships with partners
-
Join calls with our Partnerships Director and new prospective partners to discuss how Forward Action can help them hit their goals
-
As a development opportunity in the role, you will act as the partnership owner on occasional projects, building relationships with partner stakeholders and helping our team break through process challenges or blockages during projects.

Benefits and working culture
Pro Rata Salary: £31,431 if you live inside London, £28,063 (plus £3,000 travel expense allowance) if you live outside London. We have a generous pay increase system, so every year your salary will increase in line with inflation, and if you hit your professional development goals you will also move up a pay grade. If you move up a pay grade your pay will increase by £1,123 - £1,258 pro rata depending on whether you live outside London or in London.
Contract Term: This is a permanent contract. The role can be either full time or four days a week.
Location: At home during lockdown; post-lockdown, in our Hoxton office, with the option to work remotely. Ensuring our team is open to people who live outside London and enabling staff to work flexibly are important values to us, so you’ll have the freedom to work from home regularly. Many of our meetings are held via video conferencing, but post-lockdown you will need to attend meetings with clients in London fairly regularly - once or twice a week on average.
Holiday: 25 days/year (pro rata), plus bank holidays and the week between Christmas and New Year.
Extra holiday for travelling sustainably: We’re a member of the Climate Perks scheme, so you’ll have an extra two days of holiday a year if you use them to travel by land or sea instead of taking a flight.
Maternity and Paternity/Long-term partner parental leave: For a small organisation, we’re proud to have a generous and progressive parental leave policy. Maternity leave is 12 weeks at full pay, 14 weeks at 50% pay. Paternity/Long-term partner parental leave is 6 weeks at full pay.
Working culture and hours: Our team is open, inclusive, friendly, respectful and kind. People from communities that traditionally experience discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity or immigration status; women; new parents; people with disabilities; and LGBTQ+ people are especially encouraged to apply.
We work eight hour days (including a 30 minute lunch break), with core hours of 9:30am-4:30pm. We put a lot of importance on ensuring everyone finishes on time: while there are some times when you’ll need to stay a little later to finish work, people in the team rarely work more than 45-60 minutes late. No one ever works on weekends or their holidays.

About us
Crisis is the national charity for homeless people. We know that homelessness is not inevitable. We know that together we can end it.
Since the coronavirus outbreak began, our society has pulled together to achieve extraordinary things. Thousands of people sleeping rough have been temporarily housed in a matter of weeks, and many more were prevented from becoming homeless due to emergency changes to legislation.
As we begin to emerge from lockdown, we now stand at a crossroads: we can build on the incredible progress that has been made by helping everyone move into a secure and permanent home; or we risk seeing thousands of people being forced into homelessness.
We are recruiting for a Fundraising Development Officer to join our expanding Partnerships and Philanthropy team, to work alongside our inspirational supporters and beneficiaries to bring an end to homelessness in Great Britain.

As a Fundraising Development Officer you will join our innovative, dynamic and creative Fundraising Development Team (FDT).

Whilst you won’t be primarily supporter facing you will be absolutely central to fundraising success, using and growing your in-depth knowledge of corporate partner and philanthropy audiences, putting you in a brilliant position to later move into either a frontline fundraising role or a range of other internal teams. But we hope you won’t want to leave!
About you
To be successful in this role you will have:
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, including experience writing for high net worth and/or business audiences.
- Confidence in using digital channels to communicate and meet objectives
- Experience of working on events for high value audiences, in both a lead and support role.
- Experience of building productive working relationships with a range of stakeholders in a medium to large scale organisation
- Good numeracy skills and an understanding of finance processes.
- Experience supporting a busy team on multiple projects and managing competing deadlines.
- Strong organisation skills, attention to detail and a methodical approach to tasks.
- Able to work on own initiative, but also as part of a closely coordinated team.
- Share Crisis’s values and be passionate about ending homelessness
Benefits
As a member of the team you will have access to a wide range of employee benefits including:
- Interest free loans to purchase a train season ticket or a bike or for a deposit to secure a tenancy
- Mandatory pension scheme, with an employer contribution of 8.5%
- 25 days’ annual leave which increases with service to 28 days

We’re hiring an experienced partnerships manager to develop and oversee key relationships for Make My Money Matter. The candidate will identify and recruit high profile partners from across business, NGOs, local authorities, universities, and global networks to join our mission to ensure the trillions of pounds in UK pensions is invested to build a better world.
This will require an ability to understand our campaign, quickly build relationships with priority partners, and establish a movement of organisations committed to aligning their investments with their values. We are hugely ambitious, and want to sign up thousands of organisations to be part of this campaign. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and is excited to join a new initiative working to transform the financial system.
About Us
Spearheaded by film maker, SDG advocate and co-founder of Comic Relief, Richard Curtis, Make My Money Matter is a brand new, people-powered campaign fighting for a world where we all know where our money goes, and where we can demand it’s invested to build a better future.
Starting with pensions, we’re going to help people understand the impacts of their money, and we’re going to enable them to demand it does better. We’re going to connect this call with decision makers in the private and the public sector. And together, we’ll ensure that the financial system transforms to put people and planet on a par with profit.
Doing this, we’ll help move trillions of pounds – away from the destructive, harmful investments of the past, and into those which help build a future we can all be proud of.
Our campaign includes three core workstreams:
- Public Campaign: We’re going to tell the story of how we can create a better future for people and planet, and of how our money can do good while it grows – without compromising on returns. We’re going to show people what their money does now, and give them a call to action to demand it does better in the future.
- High Profile Partnerships: We’re convening businesses, NGOs, universities, local authorities, and public figures, and helping them work with their pension fund to make positive, progressive changes that ensures their money aligns with their values.
- Policy and Advocacy: We’re working with a core set of partners, including advocacy groups, government agencies, and the finance industry, to create a unifying call for high priority, high impact policy reforms that can transform the system from within. We’ll advocate for this manifesto at key national and global moments, including the 2021 UK G7 and COP26.
