This is a fantastic opportunity to lead an award-wining direct marketing team at Unicef UK.

Unicef ensures more of the world’s children are vaccinated, educated and protected than any other organisation. We have done more to influence laws and policies to help protect children than anyone else. We get things done. And we’re not going to stop until the world is a safe place for all our children.

Key to achieving this objective is ensuring the public supports our work and gives generously. The Direct Marketing team at Unicef UK inspires members of the public to support Unicef’s amazing work.  We do this using a wide range of media channels and across a number of successful fundraising products. Direct Marketing delivers nearly half of Unicef UK’s income and we have ambitious plans to increase this income significantly.

We are seeking to recruit a Director of Direct Marketing to cover maternity leave (we call this early moment leave). This role is offered as a job share and you will co-lead a high performing, passionate and friendly group of 28 people. You will oversee the development and delivery of Unicef UK’s ambitious strategies and plans to build relationships with and inspire donations from the UK public through inspiring campaigns, outstanding supporter experience, and innovative new products.

To succeed, you will have significant indepth experience of direct marketing. You will be an experienced leader, able to motivate and inspire a high performing team with different disciplines and skill levels, and you will have experience of managing income and expenditure budgets of £5m+. A supporter-centric perspective and digital innovation will be at the heart of your approach and excellent relationship management skills will help you bring together colleagues inside and outside of the organisation to deliver results for children. 

Closing date: 5pm, Monday 22 March 2021.

Interviews will take place in the week commencing 5 April via video conferencing and with a start date shortly after that.

We are normally based on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, East London but while our office is closed, this role will work from home or from wherever makes you happy.

We particularly welcome applications from black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, LGBTQ+ candidates, candidates with disabilities because we would like to increase the representation of these groups at this level at UNICEF UK. We want to do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for children.

UNICEF UK promotes equality, diversity and inclusion in our workplace. We make employment decisions by matching business needs with skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

The successful candidate will be required to apply for a criminal records check. A criminal record will not necessarily bar you from working with us. This will depend on the nature of the role and the circumstances of your offences.

If you do not hear from us within 14 days of the closing date, please assume your application has been unsuccessful on this occasion. Please note that we only provide feedback to shortlisted candidates.

Registered Charity Nos. 1072612 (England and Wales) SC043677 (Scotland)

This highly entrepreneurial, creative and rewarding role cuts across our exciting children’s literature programmes and publishing ventures. Working as part of an energetic team, they’ll play a lynchpin role in our life-changing work - enriching our content, raising our profile, securing sustainability and driving growth. The right candidate will be a highly skilled multitasker and excellent copywriter, bringing expertise and imagination from similar roles to infuse our public-facing content. Must love literature and believe in its power to change lives!

THE ORGANISATION

We’re a non-profit community interest company, with a team of eight full-time and one part-time staff, governed by a Board of Non-Executive Directors who volunteer their time to offer strategic support and ensure accountability. We take a business-minded approach to achieving our charitable mission; this greatly informs our ethos, making us enterprising and ambitious. Since 2011 we’ve secured almost £5,000,000 from funders and sponsors. 

OUR WORK

We deliver imaginative and ambitious programmes and projects which transform lives through literature - especially by working with people in deprived places and challenging circumstances. We achieve our mission through three strands of work:

• Educational programmes in schools, facilitating rich learning opportunities through contemporary literature, interactions with diverse authors, and training for educators
• Talent development, investing in and advocating for aspiring, emerging and established writers and illustrators, especially from under-represented backgrounds
• Community projects, providing literature creation opportunities for and with children and young people experiencing marginalisation, isolation or who are at risk

This is an exciting time to join us, as we mark our 10th anniversary, celebrate the impact we’ve had on 125,000 people, and set out our vision for the next ten years. Covid-19 has deeply challenged the way work, but the gap in children’s education and the untold impact on young people’s wellbeing has made that work more vital than ever. Disruption has also catalysed rich innovation and we’ve successfully transformed our offers for schools, communities and artists into dynamic online experiences, sustaining engagement through successive lockdowns. We’ve also launched new commercial and community publishing ventures. These new areas of expertise will only increase revenue, enhance our offers and widen participation in the years to come.

The four main strands of work the candidate will have a role in:

- A national children's literature festival which connects thousands of school children nationwide with quality children’s books and authors

- A talent development programme increasing minority representation in children’s publishing, with investment from 12 publisher and 9 university affiliates

- Our first commercial publishing venture, a collection of 10 new books giving a platform to untold stories and diverse new voices, with plans to launch a new collection annually from 2022

- The Rainbow Library: A UK and Ireland-wide literature creation and publishing programme involving LGBTQ+ young people collaborating with LGBTQ+ writers and illustrators

In June 2021, Covid-permitting, we’ll be celebrating our 10th Birthday at an event in central London, where we’ll launch 10 Stories, publish our 10 Year Report, and showcase the diverse people we’ve worked with over the last 10 years in a photographic exhibition. The Marketing and Comms Manager will work closely with the whole Pop Up team to produce that event.

The role requires entrepreneurship, imagination and responsiveness, to:

• Market our products and services;
• Promote our work and its impact;
• Generally raise the profile of our organisation.

Main responsibilities include:

• Managing and enhancing our overarching marketing and comms strategy, in line with organisational goals as well as commitments to funders and stakeholders, including periodic review of and reporting on KPIs, targets and objectives
• Developing and leading execution of promotional and sales campaigns in support of products, services, programmes and projects - including the creation and distribution of key (print and digital) assets
• Writing and overseeing copy creation for assets as well as comms messaging - including press releases - for campaigns targeted to particular audiences
• Managing and developing our websites supported by teams. This includes working with design agencies, commissioning content from others, and optimising user journeys
• Steering digital/social media strategy to drive growth, engagement and lead generation across platforms and channels, including line-managing a Social Media Coordinator (2dpw)
• Enhancing marketing systems and processes through developing CRM pipelines and dashboards, and automating activities wherever possible
• Creating and managing briefs and contracts with agencies and freelancers from time to time, supervising delivery to milestones and managing risk
• Occasional event management responsibilities, including our 10th Birthday celebrations in 2021

Because we have many relationships and collaborations with (aspiring and professional) children’s writers and illustrators, as well as editorial teams and publishers generally, we regularly produce literary content including original writing and illustration, which the Marketing & Comms Manager will make use of to enrich our assets and tell the stories we want to tell.

IS THIS YOU?

The successful candidate will have a minimum of two years in a similar role, and ideally at least five years working in the publishing, cultural or charitable sectors. However, we are open to candidates from other sectors. You’ll need to demonstrate experience in managing high quality and effective marketing and strategic campaigns across digital and print channels. As a children’s literature agency with strong educational impact, the content of our communications and assets needs to be of the highest quality, balancing sophistication with imagination and accessibility - a strong candidate will be a skilled communicator with proven copywriting skills. You’ll need to be an excellent multitasker, capable of balancing a portfolio of multiple projects at all points in the year. The ability to work both independently and collaboratively under pressure, and to adapt flexibly and responsively to changing circumstances, is essential.

Experience of the following would be ideal:

• website content management systems (ideally wordpress)
• understanding of SEO strategies, social media, direct marketing
• PR campaigns and media relationships
• using CRM systems to monitor and optimise lead generation

The following are general requirements:

• Must be eligible to work in the UK
• Must be able to work in London as well as remotely
• Willingness to work flexibly in accordance with the demands of the work, which will include occasional evenings and weekends

Candidates with a BAME background are encouraged to apply as they are currently under-represented at this level.

About This Job

We also know that when young people engage with others at a range of levels in their communities it builds confidence and improves empathy for other’s lives.

Who we are

You will enjoy being part of our small team who work very happily together. By joining ACFA you will help us to reach more young people and make a greater difference and we look forward to working with you. We actively promote and encourage you to explore ideas that improve all aspects of the charity’s work in pursuit of its charitable aims.
