About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.

· A persuasive and open communicator, you will work collaboratively with your team and volunteers to ensure delivery of a high-quality service and support fundraising colleagues by writing case studies and family updates

· A practical knowledge of diversity issues affecting children, young people, and their families – aware that being responsive to others needs and concerns, is essential.

Development opportunities:

As part of our learning and development Anne Harris Skills Development Programme, we aim to provide a high level of training and development opportunities for all staff, so you are able to perform to the best of your ability, achieve individual and team objectives aligned to Rainbow Trusts strategic plan, supporting staff to be their best and feel a valued member of a high performing organisation.

Our Family Support Workers are given the opportunity to complete a number of diverse training courses in their first 12 months, including but not limited to: Mental Health First Aid, Makaton, counselling skills, and Introduction to Play.

The programme aims to provide a building block for you to individually tailor your own learning and development needs, with all family support workers having a foundation level of skills within their first year.

About us:

Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity enables families who have a child with a life-threatening or terminal illness to make the most of their time together, providing expert practical and emotional support where they need, it for as long as it is needed. For families living with childhood illness, time is everything. Right now, there are too many families coping alone with no support, no time to think, no time to make memories and no time for each other. We believe that no family should go through this alone, so we are here to change that.

About us

Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) works for the health and dignity of Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees. We are the leading UK charity delivering health and medical care to those worst affected by conflict, occupation and displacement in the occupied Palestinian territory and Lebanon.

About the role

We're looking for a Senior Digital Performance Marketing Officer to help drive forward MAP's digital fundraising programme at a pivotal moment for our work. You'll lead on the delivery of complex, multi-channel paid acquisition campaigns — recruiting new cash and regular givers through Meta, Google Ads, programmatic display and beyond — while shaping the strategy, testing plans and attribution models that make our digital fundraising smarter and more effective.

This is a role with real scope: you'll manage campaigns end-to-end, drive conversion rate optimisation across our key digital products, and build the processes and content pipelines that let a small but ambitious team punch above its weight.

If you're a performance marketer who wants your skills to translate directly into lifesaving healthcare for Palestinians, this is your chance. 

As you will have seen from the role profile, this post requires a minimum of two days per week in our London office.

MAP has a flexible working policy to support employees with additional needs, caring responsibilities etc. However, it will not be possible for this role to be completely remote.

About you

What you'll do

• Lead the delivery of MAP's paid digital fundraising programme, from campaign briefing through to optimisation and review
• Develop and oversee our Conversion Rate Optimisation (CRO) roadmap
• Support on the development of our paid digital strategy, attribution models and reporting 
• Build and run testing plans to identify and scale what works
• Improve internal and agency processes, including content sourcing and sign-off pipelines
• Manage relationships with external creative and media agencies
• Support budgeting, forecasting and compliant conversion tracking 

What we're looking for

• Proven experience managing paid digital performance marketing campaigns across channels including Meta Ads, Google Ads and programmatic display
• A strong eye for creative and storytelling, and an understanding of how paid and owned channels work together
• Confidence managing multiple complex campaigns and competing priorities
• Strong analytical skills — able to turn data from multiple sources into clear, actionable reporting
• Demonstrable experience influencing and managing stakeholders, internally and externally
• A good understanding of GDPR and the Fundraising Code of Practice
• Desired experience working on regular giving recruitment      campaigns across digital and direct marketing channels. 
• Experience in a charity, humanitarian or campaigning environment is a plus, but not essential 

RECRUITMENT PROCESS

Interviews will take place on Microsoft Teams. 
 How to Apply

Please submit your CV before the deadline of 12:00 noon GMT on 11th August 2026.
