Who we are

Social AF are experts in Social Media Moderation, supporting some of the UK’s most recognised charities to manage high-volume, high-risk online communities with care, consistency and expertise. Established in 2021, we work with some of the biggest names in the third sector.

Our reputation for delivering an excellent social media moderation service has helped the company grow at a rapid pace. Our services include: 

• Social media moderation

• Facebook group moderation

• Supporter experience

We work at the frontline of charity communications, helping organisations engage their audiences, protect their communities and respond to sensitive issues in real time.

About the role

We’re looking for experienced social media and communications professionals to join our freelance moderation team.

Our moderators support a range of charity partners, working across always-on activity as well as high-profile campaigns and appeals. You’ll act as the voice of each organisation — engaging with supporters, answering queries, and ensuring conversations are managed safely and effectively.

This role is well suited as a flexible, additional source of income. Most of our moderators are freelancers or consultants working alongside other roles.

Working pattern

Moderation takes place between 9am and 9pm, Monday to Sunday.

Rather than working in one continuous block, you’ll complete your hours in short check-ins across the day to maintain coverage and meet response time targets.

Each account is allocated a set number of ‘active moderation hours’ per day (e.g. 2-3 hours), which are spread across multiple sessions.

For example, 3 hours may be split into 5-6 check-ins throughout the day.

You must be able to:

• Start moderation from 9am (or earlier)

• Monitor activity throughout the day

• Complete a final check before 9pm

• Adhere to our sub-3-hour response time

Please note: In your first month, you will typically start on fewer accounts and hours (approx. 3 per day) while you get up to speed. Hours usually increase from month two onwards.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as the voice of our charity partners, consistently applying their tone of voice and brand guidelines

• Respond to comments, messages and queries in a timely, accurate and empathetic way

• Maintain a response time of under three hours

• Identify, manage and de-escalate negative or inappropriate content

• Hide or remove content in line with moderation policies

• Identify and escalate safeguarding concerns appropriately

• Signpost users to relevant support services where needed

• Encourage positive engagement and supporter action, including donations where appropriate

• Work across a range of moderation tools e.g. Sprout Social, Meta Business Suite, Agorapulse, Brandwatch

• Manage your workload independently while following clear processes and guidance

What We’re Looking For

Essential

• Minimum 3 years’ professional communications experience, working in-house for a charity or non-profit

• Proven experience moderating social media channels

• Excellent written communication skills, with strong attention to detail

• Ability to work independently and manage time effectively across multiple check-ins

• Confidence in making judgement calls using guidance rather than scripts

• Understanding of fundraising and how charities engage supporters

• Ability to remain calm and professional in high-volume or sensitive situations

• Availability to work 3-6 days per week, including at least one weekend day

• Flexibility to adapt quickly if issues arise

Desirable

• Experience using moderation and social media management tools e.g. Sprout Social, Meta, Agorapulse, Brandwatch

What our moderators say:

“I love the flexibility of the role. The team are great and very supportive, but the flexibility allows you to still do things whilst working.” - Megan

“Working with Social AF has been so rewarding, I’ve been able to work with some amazing national charity partners. The team are so friendly and the flexibility has been really beneficial for my work-life balance.” - Sarah

Over the next ten years, £5.9 million is required to protect, upgrade, and future-proof these spaces, ensuring they remain accessible, inclusive, and fit for the next generation.

A significant proportion of this funding (£3.75 million) will be raised through a global capital fundraising campaign. This project will coincide with WAGGGS Centenary in 2028 and is an amazing opportunity to amplify the moment.

This role will lead the initial scoping and feasibility phase of the campaign- testing assumptions, shaping a compelling case for support, and laying the foundations for a successful multi-year appeal. The consultant will assess readiness, define strategy, and provide clear recommendations on campaign viability, structure, and resourcing.

Subject to successful scoping and organisational readiness, there is potential for this role to transition into a longer-term position leading campaign delivery.

About You:

We are looking for an experienced fundraising professional with a track record of developing and delivering major fundraising strategies, ideally including capital campaigns, feasibility studies, or significant growth projects. You have experience securing high-value support from trusts, foundations, institutional funders, major donors, or other philanthropic partners, and understand how to build compelling cases for investment.

A strategic thinker with strong relationship-building skills, you are comfortable engaging senior stakeholders, assessing fundraising potential, and translating complex projects into clear, evidence-based recommendations. You are motivated by the opportunity to help shape a once-in-a-generation campaign that will secure the future of WAGGGS' World Centres and their impact on generations of girls and young women around the world.

Key Responsibilities:

• Campaign Scoping and Feasibility 
• Case for Support Development
• Donor and Market Analysis
• Campaign Strategy Design
• Resource and Delivery Model

In your Cover Letter, please highlight your relevant experience in fundraising and capital appeals, including any experience of campaign planning, feasibility assessments, major donor fundraising and developing cases for support, and tell us why you are interested in working with WAGGGS.

Please note applicants must have right to live and work in the UK.

About you
We’re open to different backgrounds and paths into this role. You might already work in direct marketing, legacy, individual giving, or another area of the charity sector. Or you might be bringing transferable skills from a different marketing role and looking to move into this space.
What matters most is how you work, your curiosity, and your interest in using marketing to make a difference.
We’d like to hear from you if you can show:

- Delivery of direct marketing campaigns across offline and digital channels
- Work in legacy, individual giving, direct marketing, or another marketing environment in a charity setting
- Understanding of fundraising and supporter journeys, with an interest in legacy giving

NPP identifies, secures and manages commercial and strategic partnerships for the UK’s 15 national parks. It’s a small, ambitious and entrepreneurial organisation, committed to increasing the impact, resources and influence of these vital landscapes, helping us all to #BeMoreOutside.

As part of this ambition, we are now seeking an NbS Modelling Officer to join a newly established, DEFRA-funded Feasibility & Modelling Unit.

Working within a specialist NbS team, you will support the development of nature recovery projects across national parks and national landscapes, contributing to the data, analysis and modelling that underpins their success. This is an exciting opportunity to build your experience at the intersection of conservation, land management and green finance.

Working closely with the Modelling Manager and Feasibility Managers, you will assist with ecological and financial modelling, GIS mapping, and the development of project documentation. You’ll help project teams understand the environmental benefits of their work and support the identification of opportunities to secure funding through nature markets and other mechanisms.

Your role will also involve working with national parks and national landscape teams to gather and analyse data, support feasibility studies, and contribute to clear, engaging reports and presentations. Alongside this, you will help maintain internal systems and contribute to knowledge sharing across the team, keeping up to date with developments in nature and green finance.

You’ll be working in a fast-evolving and collaborative environment, where your attention to detail, strong organisational skills and willingness to learn will be key.

You will bring experience of working with data to support projects, ideally within an environmental, conservation, land management or NGO setting. You’ll be confident using tools such as GIS and Microsoft 365, with strong analytical and research skills and the ability to present information clearly.

A well organised and proactive team player, you’ll be comfortable managing multiple tasks, building relationships with a range of stakeholders, and contributing positively within a remote team environment.

This is a fully remote role, with travel across the UK to national parks and team meet-ups. Candidates must be willing and able to travel as required.

As a specialist Recruitment Practice, Prospectus is committed to building inclusive and diverse organisations, and we welcome applications from all sections of the community. We invest in your journey as a candidate and are here to support you throughout the process.

To apply, please submit your CV and a cover letter detailing your relevant experience for this role.

 

Many of us have discovered the joy and the necessity of spending time in nature. Whether alone or with family, we’ve found that connecting with green spaces helps us become more: more resilient, more creative, more at ease. Across the UK, our national parks provide the perfect setting to continue that journey… to explore more.

As part of this ambition, we are now seeking an NbS Modelling Manager to join a newly established, DEFRA-funded Feasibility & Modelling Unit.

Working within a specialist NbS team, you will play a pivotal role in translating nature recovery projects into credible, investment-ready propositions across national parks and national landscapes. This is a unique opportunity to operate at the intersection of conservation, land management and green finance, applying advanced modelling to unlock private investment into nature at scale.

Working closely with project teams and Feasibility Managers, you will lead on financial and ecological modelling, helping to quantify ecosystem services and shape projects that can successfully access revenue through mechanisms such as carbon markets, biodiversity net gain (BNG), and other payments for ecosystem services. A key part of your role will be developing robust financial models and ensuring projects align with the expectations of investors, offtakers and landowners.

You’ll also engage externally with a range of stakeholders, including equity investors and partners, providing confidence in the financial viability of projects and advising on innovative financing approaches. Alongside this, you will contribute to wider knowledge sharing, helping to strengthen understanding of green finance across protected landscapes.

You’ll be working in a fast-evolving and commercially emerging space, where your ability to combine technical expertise with strategic insight will be critical.

You will bring strong experience in financial and/or ecological modelling within environmental or natural capital settings, with a deeper or more specialised focus on green finance and nature markets. This might include experience gained within organisations such as environmental consultancies, natural capital firms, or market-focused organisations such as Environment Bank or similar.

Comfortable working with complexity, you’ll be confident building and interrogating financial models, understanding investment drivers, and communicating clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences. You will bring a high level of attention to detail alongside the ability to see the bigger strategic picture.

A proactive and collaborative approach is essential, as is the ability to work independently within a remote team while managing multiple strands of work.

This is a fully remote role, with travel across the UK to national parks and team meet-ups. Candidates must be willing and able to travel as required.

As part of this ambition, we are now seeking a Project Feasibility Manager to join a newly established, DEFRA-funded Feasibility & Modelling Unit.

Working within a specialist NbS team, you will play a key role in shaping early-stage nature recovery projects across national parks and national landscapes. This is an exciting opportunity to sit at the intersection of conservation, land management and green finance.  You’ll help project teams understand what’s possible, what impact can be achieved, and how projects can be funded through emerging nature markets.

Working closely with park teams on the ground, you will take a consultative approach, assessing project ideas, modelling ecosystem services, and identifying opportunities to generate revenue through mechanisms such as carbon credits, biodiversity net gain (BNG), and other payments for ecosystem services. You’ll support the development of compelling, evidence-based feasibility studies and help build a pipeline of investable nature projects across the UK.

You’ll be working in an evolving and fast-moving space, where your ability to adapt, think critically and communicate complex ideas clearly will be key.

You will bring experience from an environmental consultancy or conservation background alongside a strong understanding of nature recovery and UK nature markets. Comfortable working with data, you’ll have experience of modelling, feasibility work or ecosystem service assessment, and ideally some exposure to natural capital approaches and relevant standards or codes.

A well organised and proactive self-starter, you’ll be confident managing multiple projects in a remote environment, whilst building effective, collaborative relationships with a wide range of stakeholders.

This role is part time, 22.5 hours per week.
