About The Role
Closing Date: 20th May

Location: Though this is a predominantly home-based role, you will get lots of opportunities to get out and about to produce content with our incredible storytellers, supporters, volunteers, and staff. This will involve frequent trips to London, to our offices and events. Due to the reactive nature of social, this may occasionally be required at short notice. Therefore, our preferred candidate will be based in London or nearby.
Are you passionate about creating engaging content and building vibrant online communities? We are looking for a Social Media Officer to help shape and deliver our day-to-day social media activity, reaching and inspiring audiences through powerful storytelling and meaningful engagement.
Working as part of a dynamic team, you will develop compelling content across our key social channels, provide excellent community management, and collaborate across the organisation to ensure social media is used effectively and strategically.
In this role, you will play a key part in helping us meet our campaign, team and organisation-wide goals, always guided by data, insight and impact.
You will seek out and share stories from people affected by dementia, creating social content that connects emotionally and informs powerfully. You will stay on top of trends and spot opportunities to boost engagement, finding creative ways to highlight the impact of dementia and the hope we provide through support, research, and campaigning.
If you are a creative thinker with a passion for people, purpose and social media, we would love to welcome you to our team and continue our exciting journey together to make the greatest possible difference for those affected by dementia.
About you
Can you stop people from scrolling on social media?

- We’re looking for a self-motivated, proactive individual with a passion for social media and experience working across accounts with high volumes of user engagement. You’ll know how to create channel and audience-specific content that maximises user engagement and have a talent for spotting trends and opportunities to ensure we stand out from the crowd.
- The ideal candidate will have proven experience in managing active social media communities and understand the value of nurturing online audiences through considered community management approaches.
- You will be confident creating a range of impactful visual assets (graphics, video, photo), and really understand how to get the best results in each placement. You’ll be a great communicator with the ability to tell a great story via social content, adept at writing engaging copy, but also able to manage sensitive conversations on social.
- Brilliant interpersonal skills are also key to allow you to develop great relationships with internal teams and to work closely with people affected by dementia. Whether it’s a person with the condition themselves, a carer or someone who’s lost a loved one, you’ll be able to bring their experiences and stories to life through our channels.
- Lastly, a particular interest in using analytics tools to drive performance through data and insight is essential. You’ll be confident creating reports that align with strategic objectives and demonstrate business impact.
