The role

Reporting to the Partnerships & Philanthropy Manager, you will lead day-to-day communications and marketing across digital and external channels, helping to raise awareness of WasteAid’s work and support our fundraising ambitions.

You will:

· Plan and deliver communications and marketing campaigns across social media, email, web, press and other channels, supporting both organisational priorities and fundraising objectives.

· Create high-quality stories, case studies, blogs, newsletters, reports and fundraising materials that bring WasteAid’s impact to life and inspire support.

· Manage social media content, website updates, SEO activity and the monthly supporter newsletter, ensuring communications are engaging, relevant and consistent.

· Support the delivery of fundraising campaigns, appeals and supporter-led initiatives, creating compelling content that encourages donations and helps achieve income targets.

· Develop donor and supporter communications that demonstrate the impact of their contributions, recognise their support and encourage continued engagement and giving.

· Support donor stewardship and fundraising administration, helping to ensure supporter communications are timely, accurate and effective.

· Build relationships with media contacts and identify opportunities to promote WasteAid’s expertise, impact and fundraising campaigns.

· Gather stories, images and evidence from country teams, programme colleagues and partners to demonstrate the difference WasteAid makes.

· Monitor communications and campaign performance, using audience insight and data to improve reach, engagement and fundraising effectiveness.

About you

You will bring at least five years’ experience in communications, marketing, public relations, fundraising or a related role, together with excellent writing, editing and storytelling skills. You will be confident creating content for different audiences and channels, managing digital platforms and using performance data to improve engagement.

Experience with creative tools such as Canva or Adobe Creative Suite, basic video editing, website management and social media is important. You will also be highly organised, collaborative and comfortable working independently in a remote environment.
