More about Material Focus

Having launched in April 2020, with a brand new website, we are now at a stage where we need a digital manager to come and manage and develop this further. Our website digital tools are effectively our ‘product’ and are critical to the success of our campaign. They make it easier for people to know what, how and where to reuse and recycle their old electricals. The digital project manager will lead the development and management of the website, functionality, SEO, SEM, as part of a small, newly formed, and growing committed team. 

You will be given the chance to come in and have an immediate impact on a well-funded non-profit organisation, with an important mission.

And you’ll be able to establish a good work life balance with somewhat flexible hours and the ability to work from home.

Background

Managing electrical waste is one of the biggest challenges of our time - it is the fastest growing waste stream in the world - and in the UK. As technology evolves at such a fast pace, older electrical and electronic items are often made redundant. Most of us don’t know what to do with our old electricals and end up either binning or hoarding them. The reality is that everything with a plug, a cable or a battery can be recycled and turned into anything from children’s playgrounds to life saving equipment. Reusing and recycling unwanted electricals helps save lives, save the environment and stops those precious resources from being lost forever.

The Organisation

We are a busy start-up, having been set up to get the nation reusing and recycling their unwanted electricals - and save precious resources from being lost forever.

We are a core team of 6, working with a network of trusted freelancers and agencies to get the job done. 

The campaign

We have launched the Recycle Your Electricals campaign to motivate and make it easy for people to reuse and repair their unwanted electricals. This is a low interest issue that doesn’t even occur to most people - we throw away small electricals without even thinking about it, or perhaps we consider it but we’re too busy, and what would we do with it anyway? We need to stop people in their tracks, and give them a reason to think about it, talk about it, and do the right thing. Our website has been designed as an inspiring knowledge hub with all the tools, links and resources people need to donate, repair and recycle their unwanted electricals.

Place2Be is the leading children's mental health charity providing in-school support and expert professional development to improve the emotional wellbeing of children and young people, families, teachers and school staff. Place2Be provides mental health support and training for over 600 primary and secondary schools, reaching a total school population of over 350,000 pupils.
 
Our teams provide a range of services in our partner schools to build resilience early in life through counselling, creative work and play and support a child’s ability to engage in school life.  Our work, focused on early intervention, is part of the ‘comprehensive CAMHS system’.
