About the role

This is a hands-on, strategic digital communications role where no two days are the same.

You’ll lead our digital communications, content and design across multiple platforms — from social media and websites to digital screens across our campus. You’ll shape how we tell our story, how young people engage with us, and how supporters understand and champion our work.

You’ll:

• Own and deliver our digital communications and campaigns calendar

• Create engaging, high-quality content that brings our mission to life

• Manage and develop our websites and social media channels

• Lead on digital design, video and visual storytelling

• Act as a brand guardian, ensuring consistency and quality

• Line-manage one team member and collaborate across the organisation

You’ll work closely with colleagues across the charity, helping teams amplify their work and ensuring our communications are inclusive, accessible and impactful.

Who we’re looking for

We’re looking for someone who combines creative flair with digital know-how, and who genuinely cares about using communications to make a difference.

You’ll likely have:

• Strong experience in digital communications, content and campaigns

• Confidence using design tools such as Canva, InDesign, Photoshop or Illustrator

• Experience managing websites and multi-platform digital channels

• Excellent writing skills and an eye for compelling visual storytelling

• A proactive, organised approach and the ability to juggle multiple priorities

• A collaborative mindset and confidence working with a wide range of stakeholders

Experience in the charity or not-for-profit sector is a bonus — but not essential. What matters most is your values, curiosity and commitment to positive change.

Why work for YMCA MK & Northamptonshire?

• Be part of a mission-driven organisation that puts young people first

• Use your skills to create real social impact, every day

• Work in a supportive, values-led environment

• Opportunity to innovate and shape our digital future

• Flexible and inclusive culture, with some evening or weekend work by agreement

How to apply

If you’re excited by the idea of using digital communications to amplify young voices and support life-changing work, we’d love to hear from you.
