The role 

We are looking for a Communications and Outreach Assistant (maternity cover) to support ELF’s communications and engagement activities over a 12-month period. 

This early-career role blends digital communications with hands-on outreach. You will help produce content for social media and newsletters, support patient education activities and contribute to building strong relationships with individual patients and patient organisations around the world. 

Our communications evolve in response to audience needs and the changing digital landscape. We are looking for someone confident in a dynamic environment, eager to contribute ideas and motivated to learn and grow. Whether your strengths lie in content creation, community building or inclusive outreach, there is space to grow and shape your work. 

You will join an experienced and supportive team where collaboration is key. Your colleagues bring knowledge, kindness and enthusiasm, working together to deliver clear and impactful communications. 

What you will do: 

• Develop and share engaging social media content (graphics, posts, reels) to raise awareness and encourage participation 

• Coordinate and edit ELF’s bi-monthly newsletter, reaching 12,000+ subscribers with relevant and timely updates 

• Keep website content current and accessible, using WordPress and lay language principles 

• Write and suggest news items on a variety of topics, from the latest medical research and policy to patient activities and achievements. 

• Support education outreach, ensuring materials are translated and published in multiple languages to reach patients and families across Europe 

• Build and manage relationships with individuals and patient organisations through email, phone, video call or in-person at events

• Willing to pick up the phone and engage directly with patients and stakeholders 

• Some experience engaging with communities, with an understanding of grassroots outreach and how to encourage participation and connect people with relevant information and opportuntiies 

Why this role matters 

This role provides the opportunity to work closely with patient organisations and engage directly with individuals through accessible communications.

This maternity cover position offers the chance to build meaningful relationships, shape communications and make a real difference across Europe.
