We’re looking for a Digital Marketing Manager (maternity cover contract) to join our friendly and collaborative marketing and events team. If you're an experienced digital marketer with a track record of leading campaigns that boost engagement and participation, and if you're excited by user experience, content strategy, and data-led marketing, this could be the perfect role for you.

It’s an exciting time to join BVA as we embark on a major digital transformation project to redevelop our website. If you have experience of working on similar projects - especially with a strong understanding of UX, content hierarchy, and user journeys - you’ll be well placed to help shape a platform that truly serves our members

This is a varied and challenging position, but one that’s incredibly rewarding. You might be working on a high-impact public-facing campaign to champion animal welfare one day; the next, you could be developing content that showcases the voices of our members and promotes the value of joining BVA.

Key duties:

You’ll take the lead on a wide range of digital marketing activity.

You’ll also work closely with our partner organisations, developing joint marketing plans that effectively promote exclusive and discounted benefits for BVA members.

You'll be bringing a strategic mindset as well as strong practical skills - from writing engaging content, overseeing multimedia production, and optimising email campaigns, to interpreting data in GA4 to improve performance. You should be confident working across various CMS platforms and multiple channels, with an eye for accessible, user-focused design and messaging.

In return, we offer a supportive, kind, and creative working environment, where you'll be encouraged to bring fresh ideas, try new things, and grow your skills. We care deeply about the work we do - and we’re looking for someone who shares that vision.

Benefits

· Annual leave allowance of 25 days (excluding public holidays), increasing by one day per year up to a maximum of 30 days.

· One day paid wellbeing day per year to provide you with dedicated time to focus on your own mental and physical wellbeing.

· A number of staff social events throughout the year.

· Well-behaved dogs are allowed to be brought to the workplace on a regular basis subject to agreement and various conditions being met.

We’re making sure that our members' work is understood and valued by the public, that they’re supported to grow and thrive both personally and professionally, and that their expertise is heard and respected by the people shaping our national policies.

BVA is strongly committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, and we encourage applications from all sectors of society. We would particularly welcome applications from under-represented groups within the not-for-profit/membership sector.

We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

As People Services Manager, you will play a key role in leading our People Services function—ensuring our people receive timely, accurate, and empathetic support at every stage of their employee journey. With a strong focus on service excellence, compliance, and continuous improvement, you'll manage a team of People Services professionals and oversee the delivery of core operational processes, including payroll, onboarding, absence management, and policy advice.

You will help us create a trusted, inclusive, and high-performing support function, embedding a culture of clarity, accountability, and customer-centric service across the organisation.

In this role, you will:

• Deliver a compliant, inclusive, and experience-led People Services function aligned to our Culture of Impact principles.

• Maintain the People Team Hub (Intranet/SharePoint) as a trusted, accessible source for people policies and guidance.

About you

To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Strong working knowledge of employment law and lifecycle processes (e.g. onboarding, payroll, contract changes, and exits), with the ability to ensure compliance in practice.

• Proven experience in leading a high-performing HR operations or shared services team, driving measurable improvements in service delivery and customer experience.

• Excellent people leadership and coaching skills, with a track record of building capability, empowering teams, and driving a culture of continuous improvement.

• Commitment to Save the Children's vision, mission and values.

What we offer you:

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.

• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.

• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day. 

Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

Location & Ways of Working:

The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but at times you will be required to come to your contracted office (usually between 2–4 days per month, depending on the needs of your role, team, or service). For many roles, this is likely to be the minimum required to deliver impact.

This will be discussed and agreed with your manager / team and we encourage candidates to discuss our ways of working in more detail at interview stage.

Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense. 

Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.

We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. 

We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.

More about Ella’s
Ella’s is a London-based organisation working with women who have survived trafficking and sexual exploitation. Our mission is to do everything we can to ensure survivors have all they need to recover and build lives that are safe and free. 

Here is a summary of our main activities:
 

• We run six safe houses. This supported accommodation is crucial for survivors, until they are ready and able to live independently. 

• We provide regular support for women and families in neighbourhoods across London, and many more further afield when they need us. 

• We speak out on issues affecting the women we work with. We care deeply about survivors of trafficking and exploitation and want to see a world where these crimes are not tolerated. 

Ella’s is an equal opportunities employer. We encourage applications from all backgrounds and communities, as we believe having a diverse team adds value and positively impacts our service. 

We actively encourage applicants from BAME backgrounds, LGBTQ+ applicants and those with disabilities. We are committed to equality and diversity within our organisation.

At Stewardship, our mission is to activate joyful generosity — enabling Christians to support the causes they love, exactly when they need to. Our givers manage most of their finances through apps, and we believe their generosity should be just as intuitive. Our iOS Giving app has already seen strong engagement, and we are currently in the process of re-platforming it into React Native to support a more scalable and maintainable future.

We’re looking for an experienced Lead React Native Developer to take over from this re-platforming work and carry it forward — refining and extending the app, while also setting the direction for how we build future mobile apps. You’ll be the first dedicated React Native developer on the team, so the role offers both the autonomy to shape our mobile stack and the opportunity to grow into a leadership position as we expand the team.

As a result of our Christian ethos, this post is covered by an Occupational Requirement (OR) under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010. The successful applicant will be expected to be a practising Christian and to clearly demonstrate a personal commitment to the mission, principles, values and practices contained in our Ethos Statement, by:

• Active membership of local church congregation.

• An understanding of the faith aspects of the work of Christian charities, including the preparedness to pray with colleagues, where appropriate.
