In doing so you’ll be helping tackle the longstanding skills and diversity shortfall in engineering by attracting more young people, from all backgrounds, into the profession.
This is Engineering is a long-term digital marketing campaign, launched in 2018, that has already had a measurable impact on young people; at its most successful it has increased teens’ likelihood to consider a career in engineering by 85%. A finalist in Third Sector’s Communications Campaign of the Year, This is Engineering is recognised as a genuinely pioneering campaign in the profession and has drawn widespread support from organisations including Rolls-Royce, Amazon, and Google.
The role
As Community Engagement Officer, you will help to define and grow a new community of young engineers who will use their social media channels to engage young people with engineering and serve as ambassadors for the This is Engineering campaign. In this newly created role, you will work with the community to create, curate, shape and share This is Engineering content that appeals to teenagers, and involve them in key moments in the This is Engineering campaign calendar.
Working with the Campaign Manager and the wider digital communications team, you will also grow and engage a wider community of supporters and enthusiasts through the day-to-day running of the This is Engineering social media channels, suggesting and developing new ideas for content based on what you learn works, and on input from the champion community.
Working alongside the Academy’s media and digital communications teams, you will also support the community engagement aspects of National Engineering Day, a national awareness day spun out of This is Engineering to celebrate the impact that engineers have on our lives and broaden public perceptions of engineering. Now in its fourth year, National Engineering Day (formerly known as This is Engineering Day) has consistently mobilised engineers, engineering organisations and influencers across social media to spread the word about engineering, and gained widespread media coverage across broadcast, print and online titles.
Who are we looking for?
You will be a social media enthusiast with experience in community building or management, and your finger on the pulse of social and digital media trends. You’ll be creative and proactive, but also highly organised and adept at multitasking. Knowledge and experience of digital content creation and/or youth engagement would be an advantage. You will have excellent written and oral communications skills, and an appetite for continuous improvement, adapting and learning on the job. You will love getting to know a community and what makes them tick and will be passionate about helping young people shape their futures, and about the opportunities, engineering can offer them. You will also be a team player and natural collaborator, comfortable working with a wide range of colleagues from different disciplines within and beyond communications.
Who are we?
The Royal Academy of Engineering is a charity that brings together exceptional engineers, technologists and innovators to harness the power of engineering to build a sustainable society and an inclusive economy that works for everyone. We collaborate with our Fellows and partners to meet this ambition in three ways: by growing talent and developing skills for the future, driving innovation and building global partnerships, influencing policy and engaging the public. Together we’re working to tackle the greatest challenges of our age.
With a diverse workforce and an inclusive and supportive culture, we look to attract candidates from wide and different backgrounds who have a passion for the role engineering plays in society. Our aim is to make the Academy the best place to work for the staff we have and those we seek to attract.
Why work for the Royal Academy of Engineering?

Welcome Churches’ vision is for every refugee to be welcomed by the local church. We do this by equipping and resourcing churches to welcome refugees and people seeking asylum to their local community and by profiling them on our national Welcome Network. In 2022 so far our Welcome Network of refugee-welcoming churches has grown to over 1,000 churches across the UK and this number is increasing every month. Last August, we responded to the urgent need to help welcome newly-arriving Afghans in the UK. We have been able to connect over 4,000 Afghans with their local church and provided training to over 500 individuals from local churches to be ready to welcome them. We are continuing to support churches as they offer friendship and support to thousands of Afghans still in hotels. We are also supporting Ukrainians and the churches hosting and welcoming them and have provided training to over 350 individuals, alongside our Ukraine Hub of key resources and regular Connect meetings and our website ukrainewelcome .org
In addition to responding to urgent needs, we have a number of projects which churches can run. We provide a variety of training and resources to churches to support, disciple and include refugees in all aspects of church life. Our Welcome Boxes project provides a way for churches to proactively welcome newly arrived refugees and asylum seekers in their location. Another of our newer projects, Welcome Holidays, provides an opportunity for refugees to enjoy a short break somewhere new in the UK, hosted by a church who generously provides hospitality and some planned days of holiday. We are also increasingly working to connect churches with hotels in their location that are accommodating people seeking asylum, in order for the church to join in with supporting and welcoming those housed there.
Purpose:
We are at a pivotal moment as a charity as demand for our work is growing exponentially. We are seeking to provide consistent and high quality support to churches in our Welcome Network, focusing initially on churches in areas with high numbers of refugees and people seeking asylum. This role will particularly focus on engaging with churches and other refugee-related organisations across London and the south of England, supporting and equipping churches, delivering Welcome Churches training to churches and engaging with churches not yet in our Welcome Network.
This position would be suitable for a self-motivated leader with knowledge and experience of supporting refugees and people seeking asylum at a local level. You should be able to relate well with church leaders of all backgrounds and work professionally in local partnerships across organisations supporting refugees and people seeking asylum. We are a highly-committed team who work collaboratively to support one another.
Applicants are required to have an active Christian faith and be passionate about the UK Church welcoming refugees into the church community. Applicants from a refugee background are strongly encouraged to apply.
In order to apply for this position, please submit a 2-page cover letter and CV to emma.billington @ welcomechurches. org by 9am on Wednesday 31 August. Interviews will be conducted face to face in London (venue TBC) on Wednesday 14 September.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

In 2022 so far our Welcome Network of refugee-welcoming churches has grown to over 1,000 churches across the UK and this number is increasing every month. Last August, we responded to the urgent need to help welcome newly-arriving Afghans in the UK. We have been able to connect over 4,000 Afghans with their local church and provided training to over 500 individuals from local churches to be ready to welcome them. We are continuing to support churches as they offer friendship and support to thousands of Afghans still in hotels. We are also supporting Ukrainians and the churches hosting and welcoming them and have provided training to over 350 individuals, alongside our Ukraine Hub of key resources and regular Connect meetings and our website ukrainewelcome.
In addition to responding to urgent needs, we have a number of projects which churches can run. We provide a variety of training and resources to churches to support, disciple and include refugees in all aspects of church life. Our Welcome Boxes project provides a way for churches to proactively welcome newly arrived refugees and asylum seekers in their location. Another of our newer projects, Welcome Holidays, provides an opportunity for refugees to enjoy a short break somewhere new in the UK, hosted by a church who generously provides hospitality and some planned days of holiday. We are also increasingly working to connect churches with hotels in their location that are accommodating people seeking asylum, in order for the church to join in with supporting and welcoming those housed there.
Purpose:
We are at a pivotal moment as a charity as demand for our work is growing exponentially. We are seeking to provide consistent and high quality support to churches in our Welcome Network, focusing initially on churches in areas with high numbers of refugees and people seeking asylum. This role will particularly focus on engaging with churches and other refugee-related organisations across the North of England, supporting and equipping churches, delivering Welcome Churches training to churches and engaging with churches not yet in our Welcome Network.
This position would be suitable for a self-motivated leader with knowledge and experience of supporting refugees and people seeking asylum at a local level. You should be able to relate well with church leaders of all backgrounds and work professionally in local partnerships across organisations supporting refugees and people seeking asylum. We are a highly-committed team who work collaboratively to support one another.
Applicants are required to have an active Christian faith and be passionate about the UK Church welcoming refugees into the church community. Applicants from a refugee background are strongly encouraged to apply.
In order to apply for this position, please submit a 2-page cover letter and CV to emma.billington @ welcomechurches. org by 9am on Wednesday 31 August. Interviews will be conducted face to face in Manchester (venue TBC) on Wednesday 7 September.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
