Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions.

About Kinship

We are Kinship. The leading kinship care charity in England and Wales. We’re here for kinship carers – friends or family who step up to raise a child when their parents aren’t able to. 

Together, let’s commit to change for kinship families.

About the role

Last year we launched a new website which provides independent online information, advice and support for kinship carers. This year, we’re continuing to develop new advice and information content for the website, as well as working on content for projects that focus on supporting kinship carers.

The postholder will research, create and deliver engaging, user-focused content, and deliver a seamless user content experience throughout all content development. Working with kinship carers and subject matter experts will be a big part of your role. 

You will be working on content in a range of formats, including web copy, printed guides, presentations for training, workshop materials (digital and printed), video and more.

One day you could be carrying out research with kinship carers, on another you could be doing paired writing with a subject matter expert to explain the different types of kinship care. 

Content Design by Sarah Winters and Rachel Edwards and Designed with Care: Creating trauma-informed content by Rachel Edwards will be your guides to best practice and content design principles. You’ll be confident facilitating discovery and research and building user stories and job stories with clear user goals. 

This is a great opportunity if you’re brilliant at building trusting relationships, ambitious to make your mark in content design and ready to turn complex information into plain English. We’ll also provide excellent training and support to help you. 

Key responsibilities include:

• Take complex language, processes and legislation to design content that is clear, simple and allows users to achieve their goals (creating user stories and job stories). 

• Facilitate and support user research using empathy mapping, user journeys and other techniques to understand user goals. 

• Champion the needs of the user (including our internal users) and turn them into easily digestible, scannable and actionable content. 

• Embed content design processes in the charity and upskill internal team members, building templates which support delivery of goal-oriented content. 

• Actively learn from external organisations and peers, using best practice to test new approaches (for example using AI to support content-led products and services). 

​Essential experience includes:

• Experience of designing user-centric, jargon-free content across digital and non-digital channels

• Experience of mapping user journeys from user research and working with subject matter experts to turn complex language and processes into easily understandable content

• An ability to influence and support key stakeholders and colleagues to understand the value and impact of content design principles

• Experience of working with users and an understanding of the barriers they may face when accessing content, taking a trauma-informed approach to content design

• Strong prototyping skills and knowledge of how to test content with users

• Experience in delivering and coordinating successful content projects, from understanding user needs through to creation

What we’ll offer you 

Kinship offers 30 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rata for part-time) as well as a generous pension scheme. We have an excellent wellbeing offer, including the Employee Assistance Programme. We will invest in your professional development with training and career development opportunities.

Kinship is committed to championing equality, diversity and inclusion.  We believe our work is greatly enhanced by the varied backgrounds, experiences and views represented within our teams.  We aim to create inclusive teams, celebrate differences and encourage everyone to join us and be their true self at work. We therefore encourage applications from anyone who fits our values, whatever their religion or belief, sex, gender identity, race, age, sexuality or disability and are actively seeking candidates that can bring real innovation and commitment to us. 

How to apply

Please apply via Charity Job with your CV and a cover letter of no more than 2 pages for the attention of Rachel Nelligan. Please include your notice period and earliest availability to start in your cover letter.

Application deadline: 9 am on Monday 20 September 2025 

First interview: We will be conducting interviews on a rolling basis, so applicants are encouraged to apply early. 

Kinship reserves the right to close applications early on receipt of sufficient applications. Apply early!

You'll support the delivery of impactful campaigns - shifting hearts and minds from day one. 

From crafting emails that inspire people to take action, to brainstorming graphics that cut through the noise, to getting stuck into the behind-the-scenes-detail that gets a campaign out the door, you’ll be working hard, fast and learning everyday.

We don’t expect a Digital Campaigns Assistant to know everything about digital campaigning in a political space. But you’ll come with at least 1-2 years experience in digital roles or where you've used digital as a core discipline. 

Day-to-day you will:

• Craft punchy emails, petitions, event forms and action pages that move people to action

• Brainstorm beautiful posters, social media graphics and videos that cut through the noise

• Draft compelling and moving video scripts 

• Post powerful content and copy on social media, keeping our campaign channels active and inspiring

• Help develop and moderate our online supporter communities 

• Help us administrate and understand our campaigns and audiences better by getting your head into data entry, analysis, and research

• Create and build peer-to-peer text or phone banking campaigns, seeing them through end-to-end

• Build confidence in a variety of digital tools - like Action Network, Airtable, Favro, Slack, CallHub, GetThru and Front - to achieve maximum impact in campaigns

You'll also have an opportunity to learn more about campaigning as a craft at Small Axe across creative, production and organising. 

Occasionally that will mean getting stuck into helping to produce campaign events like petition hand-ins or creative stunts, conferences or film and photoshoots. You might build relationships with spokespeople and feed into campaign strategy.

Hours: Full-time with flexible working arrangements

Location: London office with hybrid working flexibility (2-3 days in office)

Start Date: ASAP

About Speakers Trust
Speakers Trust is the UK's leading public speaking charity, which delivers training and events to ensure all young people develop the skills and confidence to speak and be heard.
Each year, we work with over 40,000 young people, helping them develop the confidence to share their ideas and stories out loud. Our work transforms lives - every day we see and hear stories of young people who have found their voice and discovered the power of speaking up.
We operate through two key areas: (i) we deliver a national schools programme to more than one in five state secondary schools delivering workshops and events and publishing leading educational resources. (ii) we work with third sector organisations to deliver workshops and events with the joint aims of amplifying youth voice and supporting the financial sustainability of the charity- an exciting growth area that this role will help shape and lead.

The Role
This role is focused on managing and growing our work with other third sector organisations. It focuses on two areas: (i) developing our social enterprise which delivers over 150 paid workshops each year and (ii) delivering youth voice initiatives with other charity partners which amplify young voices. We're creating this new position to drive our strategic mission while enabling our Head of Fundraising to focus on individual giving, corporates, and larger trusts and foundations.
It is an opportunity to craft your own role by using your entrepreneurial skills to grow the charity’s enterprise income and giving you the opportunity to grow with it.
All colleagues are expected to also play a role in supporting Speakers Trust’s broader strategic objectives.

Enterprise Development (Primary Focus)

•  Manage the full commercial cycle from prospecting and enquiry to delivery and invoicing
•  Work with our impressive existing client base while actively developing new partnerships
•  Match client needs with our established freelance trainer network

 Youth Voice Programmes

• Successfully deliver flagship programmes like "My Maiden Speech" - our high-profile, transformative multi-organisation youth voice programme
• Develop and deliver new youth voice initiatives that amplify marginalised voices
• Engage new partners and showcase our transformative work
• Manage events, logistics, and complex stakeholder relationships across multiple organisations
• Maximise the potential of these programmes to generate new funding sources to expand this part of our work.

Supporting Speakers Trust's Broader Objectives

• As part of our collaborative team of 10, you'll also contribute to our success through:
• Supporting fundraising events and activities to help achieve our income targets
• Contributing to events for our schools programme and other initiatives where needed
• Coordinating smaller projects across the charity as opportunities and needs arise
• Supporting the CEO and team with tasks that help make Speakers Trust a great place to work
• Contributing to solutions for the usual challenges faced by small charities - bringing creativity and problem-solving skills
• Representing Speakers Trust at external events and networking opportunities
• Sharing knowledge and expertise with colleagues to strengthen our collective impact

What Success Looks Like

• Sustainable growth in our enterprise workshop programme and net income contribution
• Successful delivery of multiple youth voice programmes and events throughout the year
• New funding streams secured for youth voice initiatives
• Expanded partner network and stronger stakeholder relationships
• Enhanced profile and awareness of Speakers Trust's work
