Who are we?

Art Fund is the national fundraising charity for art. With over 142,000 members, we are leading the way in pioneering support for an inclusive and welcoming museum and gallery sector across the UK.

We work closely with a network of over 1000 museums and respond to their needs and aspirations. We're excited to see how they want to develop: to expand and diversify their collections and workforce, develop curatorial skills, make ambitious acquisitions, and create a welcoming, inclusive space for communities. With the support of over 140,000 members who buy a National Art Pass, patrons, and donors we can provide grants, encourage visiting and advocate for museums' essential role and value.

We have diversity, inclusion, and sustainability central to our thinking and the opportunity to be a force for good, galvanise support and help change things for the better inspires our team.

The role

We're looking for a dynamic and talented Social Media Manager to lead on all things social at Art Fund.

This role is really plugged in to what's happening in museums and galleries around the UK, and our work to support them.

That means you'll spend a lot of time creating video and image content to spotlight great museums and galleries. That helps us grow membership of products like the National Art Pass, and the more members we have, the more museums we can support.

You'll also tell the story of our charitable purpose, through fundraising campaigns, our funding programmes, and high-profile events like Museum of the Year.

All this ladders up to build our brand - which helps us connect more people with great art and culture, and to support more museums and galleries.

Key Employee Benefits

• Generous Annual leave – 25 days annual leave and bank holidays, with additional non-contractual office closure dates at Christmas.
• Free National Art Pass (NAP) – for yourself and another person of your choice.
• Free Entry to Exhibitions
• Life Assurance – cover for up to three times your basic salary.
• Season Ticket Loan
• Pensions – Eligible employees are enrolled into the scheme with the exception of those who have contracts of three months or less. Art Fund contributes 8% of the basic annual salary during the first six months of employment or until probation is successfully completed, whichever is the later. At that point the contribution is increased to 10%.

Closing deadline: 23.59pm on Sunday 2 August 2026

The Royal College of General Practitioners is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.

Be part of something new while building on over 85 years of community impact.

Are you highly organised, compassionate and thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same?

This is an exciting opportunity to join Bede Starfish as we deliver the Women's Safety Alliance (WSA), Southwark's newly commissioned Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) service. Working alongside specialist partners, the WSA provides co-ordinated, trauma-informed support to women, children, young people, families and male victims affected by domestic abuse, sexual violence and other forms of VAWG.

While the Women's Safety Alliance is a newly commissioned service, you'll be joining Bede, a trusted Southwark charity that has been supporting local communities since 1938. This is a fantastic opportunity to help shape and grow an innovative service from the very beginning while being part of an organisation with over 85 years of experience supporting local people.

As our VAWG Service Co-ordinator, you'll be at the heart of a busy, fast-paced frontline service. You'll be the first point of contact for many clients and professionals, ensuring people receive a welcoming, professional and trauma-informed response from the moment they reach out for support.

This is a varied role where no two days are the same. Alongside co-ordinating referrals, appointments and waiting lists, you'll have opportunities to attend community events, partnership meetings and networking forums across Southwark, helping to strengthen relationships and raise awareness of the Women's Safety Alliance within the local community.

What We Offer

• Apprenticeship and professional development opportunities.

• Ongoing training and career progression.

• Supportive and passionate team environment.

• Opportunity to shape and develop a new and innovative service.

• Meaningful work that makes a difference to the lives of women, children, and families.

Please note: This is a fully office-based role in Southwark. Due to the nature of the service and the importance of face-to-face collaboration with colleagues, clients and partner agencies, this role is not hybrid or remote working.

A job description and application form is available online. Please also include a cover letter explaining how you meet the requirements set out in the person specification.

Closing to applications: Midnight, Monday 20th July 2026
Interview date: Tuesday 28th July 2026
Start date: ASAP

On the day, all candidates will be required to complete a 30-minute written assessment and computer literacy test.

The marketing and communications team is small but mighty. We help people find the School for Social Entrepreneurs (SSE), understand what we do and take the next step, whether that is applying for a programme, booking a workshop, coming to an event, becoming a partner or engaging with our work.

We lead programme recruitment across SSE. That includes campaign planning, email marketing, social media, web content, partner communications and applicant journeys. We also manage SSE’s outbound communications, making sure our messages are clear, timely and joined up across newsletters, press, stakeholder updates, programme promotion and wider brand activity.

It is a creative, varied team where the work moves quickly and no two days feel the same. You will work across the full communications mix, helping us turn ideas, stories and programme information into clear, engaging content that reaches the right people and encourages them to act.

The work is fast-paced, but it is also genuinely rewarding. Good marketing at SSE means more social entrepreneurs hear about the support available to them, more partners understand our impact and more people see the value of social enterprise. We are practical, collaborative and always looking for ways to improve. If you enjoy making things clearer, sharper and more engaging, and you want to see your work make a real difference, this is a brilliant team to be part of.

At SSE, finance isn't a back-office function — it's central to everything we do. Every pound we manage connects directly to our mission: supporting social entrepreneurs to change their communities for the better.

Our finance team is small, close-knit, and genuinely hands-on. We manage income from a wide range of funders — from major institutions through to smaller, place based partners — alongside distributing millions of pounds in grants directly to the social entrepreneurs we exist to serve.

The work is varied, meaningful, and never dull. Because we manage everything in-house, you genuinely own your work end to end — from coding invoices and uploading forecasts into Business Central, to presenting financial insight to our Senior Management Team and steering us through external audit.

We're a team that performs well but we never stand still and welcome people spotting a better way of doing something. If you want to embed smarter technology, automate a clunky process, we always welcome fresh thinking
