Job Title: Digital Communications & Content Officer

Location: London/Hybrid

Salary: £36,038.98 per annum

Weekly Hours: 35

Reference: YMC1206520

Creative freedom ¦ Purpose-driven work ¦ Big ideas welcome

Love creating content that people stop scrolling for? Passionate about storytelling, social trends and bringing bold ideas to life? If you’re looking for a creative role where your voice matters and your ideas can genuinely shape a national brand, this could be the perfect next step.

At YMCA England & Wales, we’re searching for a talented Digital Communications & Content Officer to join our energetic and collaborative Communications team. This is an exciting opportunity to create impactful content that amplifies young people’s voices, builds meaningful engagement and helps drive positive change across England and Wales.

You’ll work across campaigns, fundraising and retail.  You’ll drive national initiatives as part of our ambitious PCI Directorate — a supportive and creative environment where experimentation is encouraged and no two days are the same.

This is a role with real creative licence. We want someone who’s excited to test new ideas, jump on trends, explore emerging platforms and create content that feels fresh, authentic and culturally relevant. One day you could be filming TikTok content, the next producing a YouTube series, designing social-first campaigns or building engaging digital journeys and landing pages.

You’ll help grow and energise YMCA’s online communities by capturing real stories from young people, staff, volunteers and local YMCAs across the country. From short-form video and graphics to compelling campaigns and platform-native storytelling, your work will inspire audiences and encourage action.

We’re looking for someone who lives and breathes digital culture — a creative thinker who understands social media, loves multimedia storytelling and enjoys turning ideas into engaging content. Alongside strong creative instincts, you’ll use insights and analytics to continually refine and improve performance.

Most importantly, you’ll join a passionate organisation and a genuinely fun, forward-thinking team that values creativity, collaboration and innovation.

If you’re ready to bring fresh ideas, creative energy and digital expertise to a role with real purpose, we’d love to hear from you.

Safer recruitment is important to us and the successful applicant will be asked to provide two references. They will also be required to complete a safeguarding self-declaration, safeguarding training and undertake a DBS check.

As a Solutions Architect at our charity, you will play a pivotal role in designing and implementing technology solutions that support our mission and strategic goals.

With the continued implementation of our new Salesforce CRM, you will ensure its successful integration and optimisation while also overseeing the architecture of other critical technologies across the organisation.

This role requires a blend of technical expertise, strategic thinking, and excellent communication skills to drive innovation and efficiency.

Do you share our belief in the importance of small charities and the power of skilled volunteers to drive meaningful, lasting change?

At Cranfield Trust, our mission is to bring together skilled volunteers and small charities to strengthen organisations, develop leaders and deliver impact that lasts.

Small charities play a vital role in communities, often at the frontline of complex and urgent challenges.  But the environment that small charities have to operate in is becoming more demanding, with uncertain funding, rising demand, stretched leadership capacity, and a range of other issues that are currently impacting the sector.  

We deliver free, capacity-building services and support for small charities, utilising proven approaches that address organisational challenges and leadership development.  We are at an important point in our development, with a new CEO and a new strategy.  Demand for our support is high and growing rapidly, and how we respond will shape our future impact.

We are looking for an experienced fundraising and relationship manager, who is motivated by the difference our work makes for small charities throughout the UK.

About this role

As Philanthropy and Partnerships Manager, you will play a central role in developing and managing Cranfield Trust's high-value relationships with funders, donors and partners. This includes identifying new funding and partnership opportunities, shaping compelling proposals, and building and stewarding trusted relationships that lead to long-term support. 

You would be joining us at an important point in our development, with a new CEO, and a new strategy being introduced later this year. Demand for our support is high and growing rapidly, and how we respond will shape our future impact.

This is a remote working role, open to candidates based anywhere in the United Kingdom, but occasional attendance at face-to-face meetings, events and in-house training/development is a core requirement of the role.  In this role, you will work closely with our Wales and Scotland Managers and we are keen to hear from interested candidates in Scotland or Wales.   

You do not need to meet every role requirement to apply. But you should be ready to build an understanding of our work and share our passion for the difference it makes. Whether your experience fully matches the role description, or you bring relevant skills and a strong motivation to learn, we encourage you to apply.

• Able to turn your hand to a wide range of repair and maintenance tasks
• Good working knowledge of health and safety on site
