Based at The Frances Hay Centre, Banbury with the possibility of hybrid working 

We are looking for a creative individual to lead our campaigns and digital marketing activity.

Role purpose
The Campaigns and Digital Marketing Manager is responsible for attracting, converting and retaining supporters through our campaigns and digital marketing activity.  The role will particularly suit a creative leader with a keen interest in supporter acquisition, data insights, analysis, testing and measurement.

About us
At Dogs for Good, we believe that dogs, and the bond we share with them, can help people lead happier, healthier and more independent lives.  This is an exciting time to join the organisation as we embark on a bold, new strategy to move to a more community-led model, alongside a greater emphasis on training, education and advocacy.  Over the next five years, this will increase the impact in our three priority areas – improving the quality of life for people and dogs; increasing the understanding of the value of connection with a dog; and creating a more inclusive society.

Salary – £31,500 – £33,000.  In addition we offer a range of great benefits, including 25 days annual leave, plus additional time off between Christmas and New Year (and not working your birthday!); a generous contributory pension scheme; hybrid working, a great office environment (shared with our dogs), on the edge of Banbury.

Doorstep Library is a community-focused literacy charity dedicated to bringing the magic of books and the joy of reading directly into the homes of children who need our support. We are looking for an experienced fundraiser to head up our fundraising and marketing teams.

With one in four 11-year-olds leaving primary school unable to read or write properly, we recruit and train home and online reading volunteers to go into disadvantaged areas of London to help introduce young children (aged 0-11 years) to the pleasure and benefits of reading.

Our unique home-based service, whether in person or online, enables us to find the most appropriate books for every child we visit and build a relationship with the whole family. Our goal is to help children develop the self-confidence and essential skills they need to access all the opportunities that will come their way in life.

We also empower parents/carers to create and maintain a supportive environment by signposting them to local services and community support. Our projects not only improve literacy but also increase family wellbeing and bonding. Our tailored service enables us to help prepare children for school and broaden their opportunities in later life.

Our impact is long-lasting.  For us, the ‘happy ever after’ is when we know the power of literacy and the joy of reading are helping a child change their own story for good.  Every story shared is a story changed.
