Responsible to:      Director of Marketing & Technology

Status:                        Full-time, Permanent 

Salary:                        £26k-£29k (dependent on experience) 

Location: Birmingham – primarily office-based

Deadline for Applications: 6pm Friday 1st August 2025

Islamic Help is a UK-based international relief and development organisation that has developed rapidly since being established in 2003 and has provided support and assistance in 49 countries. Our programmes aim to help and empower disadvantaged communities in the UK and abroad; some of the key areas we work in are emergency response, WASH, education, livelihood and environment conservation.

As part of our continuing commitment to improve and enhance our relationships and communications with our donors and stakeholders, we are currently seeking a Marketing & Projects Co-ordinator who will be based at our Birmingham office.

WHAT WE OFFER

Islamic Help acknowledges that our employees are our most valuable resource. Therefore, we provide a variety of benefits aimed at promoting their professional growth, as well as supporting their mental and physical well-being, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

- Holiday entitlement of 30 days per financial year (for full-time roles; includes bank holidays entitlement – due to the nature of the role, you may be required to work on bank holidays)

- Personal learning and development opportunities.

- Automatic enrolment into our workplace Pension Plan (option to opt out).

- Employee Assistance Programme for support with health & wellbeing, financial matters, and any other assistance.

- Free office car park for staff.

The Role

We are looking for a detail-oriented and proactive Marketing & Projects Coordinator to join our high-performing marketing function at Islamic Help. This is a unique role that sits at the intersection of project management, internal communications, and marketing delivery.

You will not be solely responsible for designing social media posts, editing videos, or running ad campaigns - we already have expert teams in place for that. However, you will be invited into those processes, with opportunities to observe, contribute, and grow. We are always open to ideas that improve our work, and there is definitely scope for development in this area of marketing over time.

The core of this role is to co-ordinate, connect, and communicate - ensuring that everything runs smoothly, projects are delivered on time, and the many moving parts of the marketing department stay aligned.

This role doesn’t require deep experience in marketing execution. At its heart, it’s a project management and stakeholder coordination position. However, it’s ideal for someone with an interest in marketing and communications who wants to gain exposure and experience across a full marketing ecosystem - including brand, paid media, video, SEO, digital infrastructure, and more - in a fast-paced, mission- and results-driven environment.

You’ll work closely with the Director of Marketing & Technology, the Senior Marketing Officer, and a broad mix of outsourced specialists, including Google Ads experts, SEO consultants, graphic designers, videographers, performance marketers, and UI/UX professionals.

This is a role for someone who thrives in a structured, high-output setting, wants to be part of work that makes a real difference globally, and is eager to gain deep experience in the full A-Z of how a professional marketing team functions.

Key Responsibilities

Project Coordination

• Track and manage marketing projects from inception to completion, ensuring they are delivered on time, to spec, and aligned with brand standards
• Coordinate between internal departments and external specialists (e.g. video teams, print houses, performance marketing agencies)
• Schedule meetings, follow up on action points, and ensure teams stay on track
• Maintain clarity on project timelines, tasks, ownerships, and deadlines
• Manage platforms such as Asana, Hootsuite, and shared file systems to monitor workflow and progress.

Internal Communication & Stakeholder Liaison

• Gather marketing-related needs from other departments across the organisation
• Clarify briefs, manage expectations, and feed this information to relevant creatives or external vendors
• Ensure alignment between campaign objectives and deliverables
• Flag blockers or conflicts early and work with senior leadership to resolve them.

Marketing Support (Fluency, Not Ownership)

• Engage with marketing tools and channels (e.g. Hootsuite, social platforms, content schedules), not as the creator, but as a coordinator
• Analyse and review creative outputs (e.g. social posts, videos, copy) for basic accuracy, alignment, and tone
• Provide constructive feedback or flag potential issues to relevant team members
• Respond to or escalate social media engagement (e.g. DMs, comment moderation) when needed.

Research & Trend Monitoring

• Conduct market research to identify trends, opportunities, or gaps within the sector
• Feed relevant insight to the Senior Marketing Officer and Director to help shape campaign direction
• Monitor sector activity and competitor positioning.

 About you 

For us, it’s not just what we do, it’s how we do it. Our values are important to us and we’re looking for people who will live and breathe them. 

Why This Role Might Be Right for You

• You want to build your career in marketing and/or project management without needing to create all the assets yourself
• You love organisation, timelines, responsibility, and making things happen
• You’re a natural communicator who can keep teams and tasks aligned
• You work well under pressure and don’t shy away from responsibility
• You’re passionate about doing work that supports meaningful causes and helps people around the world
• You want to grow within a professional, supportive team that’s delivering real-world impact.

Skills & Attributes

Required

• 100% command of English, both written and verbal
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Extremely IT literate, with the ability to learn new platforms and systems quickly
• Strong project management and coordination abilities
• Exceptional time management and organisational skills
• Calm and solution-oriented under pressure
• Comfortable and proactive in seeking guidance or help when needed
• Passionate about the work, the sector, and making a difference — this is not the right role for someone simply looking to clock in and out.

Desirable

• Familiarity with marketing platforms (e.g. Hootsuite, HubSpot, Meta Business Manager, Google Analytics, etc.)
• Some prior experience in a fast-paced or stakeholder-heavy environment
• A career interest in marketing, communications, or project management.

• Provide written updates for key stake holders as well as for internal meetings.
• Attend team meetings, supervisions, reflective practice and training as required

About you:

We are seeking someone who is comfortable and experienced working in a small company or charity, understanding that our capacity and resources are limited. A 'can do' attitude and a motivated approach are essential. While direct experience with homelessness may not be necessary, you should have a solid understanding of the common challenges faced by those who have been homeless. Attention to detail is essential, as is the ability to identify and promptly address risks or safeguarding concerns. Empathy, attentive listening, and strong verbal communication skills are also key requirements. Proficiency with IT and the ability to maintain up-to-date records in our database are necessary. Additionally, you should have the tools to maintain your well-being in what can be a challenging but rewarding role. You will need to demonstrate and build the resilience required to work with individuals who may struggle to engage with services like ours and think creatively to encourage engagement. While practical experience supporting vulnerable adults is highly desirable, we are also interested in hearing from you if you have transferable skills and a willingness to learn, even if you haven't worked in the homelessness sector before.

Safer London is not a sponsoring organisation for foreign nationals and you must be able to show proof that you have permission to live and work in the UK in order to be considered for this role.

This is an exciting time to join us. Diversity Voice has recently merged with CCS, and with aligned values and mission, we are delighted to be able to work more effectively as one team to serve diverse ethnic, faith and belief communities in Somerset.

CCS has also recently secured funding for another 4 years for our work with our diverse communities. Alongside the “Welcome for All” Displaced people programme, this will allow us to build a strong community infrastructure to support individuals and communities across the county. Our work combines grassroots engagement, specialist support, and strategic influence to build a stronger, more connected, and inclusive Somerset.

This is a key strategic role in our organisation. You will lead and manage the Somerset Diverse Communities (SDC) team. Together with your team, you will listen to community needs, promote suitable responses and convene individuals and organisations to seek community-based solutions, supporting communities to thrive together.

As part of this role you will also be responsible for managing a varied programme of ESOL courses, groups and support in schools. In addition, you will manage the delivery of our support for Open Mental Health Alliance partners to provide programmes that integrate equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging into everything they do.

Our approach is rooted in trust, cultural humility, and lived experience. We work with, not for, our communities — creating space for voice, leadership, and influence. This has allowed us to surface sensitive and complex issues such as immigration, faith-based exclusion and rural racism, and work through them constructively with communities and institutions.

About Shooting Star Children’s Hospices

We have an exciting opportunity to join our Family Support Team at Shooting Star Children’s Hospices.

Shooting Star Children’s Hospices provides specialist care and support to families who have a baby, child or young person with a life-limiting condition, or whose child has died. Rated ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission, our teams support families across Surrey, north-west London and south-west London from diagnosis to end of life and throughout bereavement with a range of nursing, practical, emotional and medical care.

About the role

Family Support Workers (FSW) are the frontline of our care. Each FSW holds a caseload of end-of-life and bereaved families. They get to know their families, and check-in regularly with phone calls and home visits and can provide enhanced emotional support where required through more regular contact and interventions. Our FSWs tell families about the many services they can access at Shooting Star, assess their needs and make recommendations to our multi-disciplinary team. They  support families of different ethnicities and families living in poverty, helping our service be as accessible as possible.

Our FSWs work closely with our Therapists, Counsellors, Social Workers, Transition Team and our Care Events Team. Weekly MDT meetings bring the team together to think of ways to help families in crisis. The work is varied and creative, taking place at the hospices, in family homes and hospitals, allowing the support to be where the families need it. Our Family Support Workers are hugely appreciated by the families we support.

The ambition of our strategy is to ensure every family affected by a life-limiting condition, or the sudden death of a child, has access to the specialist care that they need. Day to day duties are:

· Being the on-site duty FSW, welcoming families on site, monitoring email inboxes and answering the Family Support Line.

· Helping with support groups and family events

· Providing on the spot emotional support, sometimes in a crisis where a calm and supportive response is required.

· Visiting newly bereaved families in their homes.

· Supporting families staying at our Christopher’s hospice (booked stays and end of life).

· Attending various locations over the course of a week: hospice, hospital, family homes.

· Building connections with families from different backgrounds, delivering culturally sensitive care.

· Helping safeguard families at risk of harm.

· Acting as an ambassador for Shooting Star’s Specialist Bereavement Service, supporting other care team members with their learning and delivery of the bereavement pathway, and continually seeking ways to improve what we offer families.

The post holder will need to have a UK driving license.

The hours are predominantly worked 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.

Twice a month, the FSW will work a weekend day (with advance notice). This is in place of a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday that week.
