-
Ensure all content and engagement reflect an understanding of cultural diversity, political sensitivity, and our international context.
-
Use social media analytics tools to monitor performance, report on engagement growth and sentiment, and provide insights to inform future strategy.
-
Occasionally attend events or workshops (in the UK or abroad) to capture stories and build relationships with partners.
About You
-
You’re a natural communicator who thrives on genuine interaction and knows how to build rapport online.
-
You have a strong grasp of brand voice and can adapt tone and messaging to suit different audiences and contexts.
-
You’re curious and empathetic — able to navigate complex or conflicting information and find clarity in nuance.
-
You’re globally minded, culturally sensitive, and politically aware, with a good understanding of how narratives play differently across international regions.
-
You have demonstrable experience managing social media channels for an organisation, ideally with an international, humanitarian, or non-profit focus.
-
You’re proactive and creative, with an eye for storytelling and a commitment to continuous improvement.
-
You can confidently use analytics tools to measure and interpret social media performance.
-
Experience with tools such as Meta Business Suite, MailChimp, or similar is desirable.
