We are on the lookout for talented comms experts who understand the importance of effective, accurate, and timely online communications and can enhance the work of our expanding social media moderation team.

** The ideal candidate will have a minimum of 3 years' professional social media moderation experience, working with a large charity with an active social media following. They will understand the importance of building positive engagement and relationships with the public and be committed to acting in the best interests of our charity partners. 

If you do not have 3 years of professional social media moderation experience, working in-house for a charity please do not apply. You will not be shortlisted. 

About the role

Our dedicated team moderates our full-service accounts (all organic content and paid ads) as well as one-off campaigns and appeals for some of the most recognisable charities in the sector. 

This role is perfect for skilled comms experts who can provide excellent supporter care and is best suited as an additional source of income (the majority of our team are freelancers and consultants). You must be able to begin moderation at 9 am (or earlier), wrap up by 9 pm and adhere to our sub-three-hour response time. 

Our moderators must have a minimum of three years’ in-house, third-sector comms experience.

For example, for an account which requires three active hours, you might carry out your work in six, thirty minute instalments throughout the shift.

As you gain experience, you will be allocated multiple accounts which will enable you to increase your hours worked.

About Scripture Union  

You might have heard of us before if you're one of the 1.5 million+ who have attended one of our Christian holidays or missions over the years, or maybe you're one of the 40,000+ subscribers to have used our brilliant devotionals or been stirred by our exceptional bible resources. We've been at this for a fair few years... over 150 to be precise. Over this time, we’ve remained passionate about helping children and young people develop a vibrant faith in Jesus. As our name describes, the radical power of God's word has always been central to our approach.

We still do all the great stuff with resources and holidays, but in the last few years, we have sharpened our vision with a renewed focus to help the 95% of young people (primary and secondary school age) across the UK who have never stepped foot inside a church, to hear and respond to the good news of Jesus. We do this through equipping and resourcing the local church, training up volunteers from local churches (we call them ‘Faith Guides’) and collaborating with local and national partners across the UK to connect with children and young people and support them on a journey of exploring faith in a way that is relevant and meaningful.

In the last few years, we’ve developed a brand-new approach to how we do this, it’s deceptively simple and incredibly effective, we call it Revealing Jesus, and it’s making a massive difference. In the last couple of years, we’ve trained up nearly 600 faith guides across 400+ churches all over the UK, collectively we’re seeing over 50,000 young people across the UK on a journey of exploring the christen faith and responding to an invitation to become followers of Jesus. We have 24 staff organised into four regional teams, and alongside our local and national partners, we’re playing our part in a network of organisations that seeks to reach children and young people in every context, across every town and city across the England and Wales. The journey ahead is significant, and we invite you to be a part of it! 

  

About your team 

You’ll be joining our brilliant South Region team, which covers our largest region from Kent to Cornwall, offering numerous opportunities to contribute your expertise in a variety of contexts, from urban and suburban to coastal and rural settings. You’ll have a brilliant time getting acquainted with this rich tapestry of local and national partners. Across the south region, we currently work with 130 churches and have 150 faith guides, we’d like to see these numbers grow significantly over the next few years. 

In the south region we have the highest density of Christian holidays and festivals, with events that we organise and run directly and a variety of festival and missions that we support and partner with. You’ll have a fantastic opportunity each summer to get hands on engaged in these mission and festivals throughout the year. 

Our South Region also includes our vibrant capital, one of the most multicultural and ethnically diverse cities in the world, with over 300 languages spoken. With many like-minded missional organisations having a footprint in and around the capital, and all of the Christian movements and denominations represented here, London holds key strategic value and will be the focus of your ministry activities. You’ll be joining an exceptional and growing team of five staff. We are particularly interested in how sports, arts, and culture can be explored to further enable the mission both in London and across SU and would be particularly interested in candidates with expertise in either of these areas.

Marketing Officer

Salary: £28,000–£30,000 (depending on experience)

Location: Home-based, with the option to work from your local Diocese office

Hours: 25–35 hours per week (negotiable)

Contract: Permanent

Are you a creative and driven marketing professional looking for a role where your ideas can truly make a difference?

We’re recruiting on behalf of a not-for-profit organisation that supports Catholic schools, parishes, and dioceses across England and Wales with ethical, cost-effective procurement solutions. This is a unique opportunity to join a mission-aligned team and help shape how they communicate with two distinct and influential audiences.

About the Role

As their new Marketing Officer, you’ll lead on all aspects of marketing strategy and delivery. You’ll be the driving force behind campaigns that promote services to:

• CEOs and Headteachers across 2,000 Catholic schools – helping them discover smarter procurement solutions

• COOs and CEOs from 30 Catholic dioceses nationwide – showcasing how the organisation can support their operational needs

Although this is a home-based role, there is also the option to work from your local Diocese office. You’ll also join the team for quarterly in-person meetings and occasional travel to conferences and events.

This is a wonderful opportunity for an experienced marketing officer to innovate, introduce better ways of working, and make a real impact in a values-led organisation.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading multi-channel marketing campaigns (email, social media, website, newsletters, events)

• Collaborating with suppliers to tailor messaging and drive engagement

• Managing and updating marketing materials and digital content

• Analysing campaign performance and reporting on impact

• Building relationships with diocesan communication teams and the Catholic Education Service

• Supporting cross-team collaboration and contributing to a culture of continuous improvement

What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking someone who is:

• Experienced working within mission-driven or education-focused organisations

• Energetic, personable, and highly organised

• A skilled communicator with excellent writing and presentation abilities

• Experienced in using marketing tools like Canva, Mailchimp, and Coda

• Comfortable working independently and as part of a remote team

• Sympathetic to the mission and ethos of the Catholic Church

A marketing qualification is highly desirable, and while you don’t need to be a practicing Catholic, an understanding of the Church’s structure and values will be a strong advantage.

Why Join?

You’ll be part of a small, passionate team committed to delivering best value and reducing environmental impact in alignment with Catholic social teaching. You’ll have the freedom to innovate, the support to grow, and the chance to contribute to a meaningful mission.

Charity People is a forward thinking, inclusive organisation that actively and deliberately promotes equity, diversity and inclusion. We know organisations thrive when inclusion is at the forefront. We evidence our commitment by matching charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates irrespective of background e.g. age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We do this because we believe that greater diversity leads to greater results for the charities we work with.

Are you passionate about bringing art to everyone? Do you believe in the power of digital to engage people with the arts? We’re looking for an enthusiastic Philanthropy Manager to join our friendly and dedicated team.

We welcome and encourage applications from candidates who are under-represented in the creative industries, particularly individuals who experience physical, mental or social barriers to accessing the arts.

About Art UK 

Art UK is an art education charity and the online home for every public collection of art in the United Kingdom. It is making the UK’s national collection of art accessible to everyone online – for enjoyment, learning and research. Art UK brings together art from almost 3,500 British institutions in one of the UK's largest ever arts partnerships and showcases this art to a global audience of 5.5m users per annum.
