At ActionAid UK, storytelling sits at the heart of our work.

In this specialist role within our Stories and Content Gathering Team, you’ll help shape bold, authentic content that showcases the work and impact of ActionAid’s partners worldwide, as well as the global movements for social justice and gender equality.

Day-to-day, you’ll nurture strong relationships with colleagues across the global majority and ensure every story reflects the lived realities of the communities we work with. You’ll support photography, video and story gathering commissions across Asia, Africa and Latin America, researching story leads, developing strong angles, liaising with teams worldwide and helping brief and contract photographers, videographers and journalists.

The café has the opportunity to not only advances our mission of improving women’s health and wellbeing but also generates vital trading income and partnership opportunities.

While it currently operates at a deficit, it plays a vital role in advancing our wellbeing and community objectives. We are now focused on realising its full commercial potential. A feasibility study is underway to explore a range of operational and business models that will transition the café into a sustainable, profit-making enterprise. Plans include expanding income-generating opportunities through hosting more events, developing an external catering offer, and maximising use of the space for private hire and functions during weekends. This work will ensure the café continues to embody our values while contributing significantly to the financial sustainability of The Bridge

Room Hire – Spaces that Enable Collaboration and Impact

Our professional meeting and event spaces are used by charities, community groups, and corporate partners for workshops, training, and strategic planning. With over 500 bookings a year and a 89% return rate, these rooms are known for their quality, warmth, and service. The income they generate supports our wider mission, while also acting as a catalyst for new partnerships and collaborations.

We now aim to build on this success by increasing utilisation on our most popular days (Tuesday to Thursday) and attracting new clients to fill capacity on Mondays, Fridays, evenings, and weekends. Plans include developing loyalty packages for regular clients and introducing new offers such as team wellbeing days that align with our health and wellbeing ethos. This approach will not only maximise income potential but also strengthen The Bridge’s role as a space where organisations connect, collaborate, and thrive.
