Digital Communications & Engagement Manager

Are you driven by social justice and motivated by creating real, lasting change? Are you experienced in digital communications, able to create engaging content and mobilise campaigns? If so, we have a job for you. 
 

We are looking for a Digital Communications and Engagement Manager to drive forward the Disabled Children's Partnership's digital presence, supporter mobilisation, and stakeholder engagement. Reporting to the Campaign Director, this role is crucial in ensuring the Partnership’s campaigns are visible, engaging, and impactful. 

Delivery of our campaign objectives depends on the contributions of our members and supporters. This role will be the central point of coordination of a complex programme of activity from multiple member organisations and teams. You will deliver excellent digital communications to members, provide support for all DCP meetings, and maintain accurate plans and calendars to track activity and report on progress.

This role is a fixed‑term position (30 hours per week, worked over 4 days) until June 2027. We’re open to discussing how these hours can best work for you. Some on‑call and out‑of‑hours working may be required.

Together we campaign to secure the policy change, public awareness, and political attention that disabled children deserve.

Our current focus is our high-profile Fight for Ordinary campaign. Together we are calling for reform of the SEND system, so that children with special educational needs or who are disabled can enjoy the ordinary things that other children take for granted, like having a nursery, school or college place, being safe in school, making friends, and taking part in activities in and beyond school.

What you'll do

• Design, implement, and manage an “always-on” social media plan to grow and engage DCP’s online audience, through our own channels and those of members
• Lead the development and delivery of digital mobilisation strategies and create compelling digital content (posts, graphics, short videos) aligned to campaign goals and organisational priorities.
• Plan and deliver supporter journeys, email campaigns, calls-to-action designed to build momentum and influence decision-makers, and manage the campaigner database
• Maintain strong relationships with member organisations, delivering regular communication, including newsletters, updates and briefings. 
• Plan and support the organisation of DCP meetings, including the CEOs group, steering group, policy, comms, campaigns, and public affairs sub-groups, and all-member meetings. 

What you'll bring:

• Demonstrable experience in digital communications and social media management in a campaigning context.
• Experience of online campaign mobilisation.
• Ability to create engaging, accessible digital content across multiple channels.
• Experience using email marketing tools, CRM systems, and supporter databases.
• Strong organisational and coordination skills, with experience supporting meetings or projects.
• Clear understanding of data protection regulations and safe data handling.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to work flexibly, manage multiple priorities, and meet deadlines.
