CEASE (the Centre to End All Sexual Exploitation) is a national human rights charity.

Sexual exploitation does not occur in a vacuum, and only by addressing the wider context can we hope for real, lasting change.

• We demonstrate how the mass consumption of online pornography depicting the humiliation, violation and degradation of women and children has realworld consequences.
• We shine a light on the widespread exploitation and harm caused by commercial sex industries that undermine our human rights.
We are neither a religious nor an ideologically driven charity but seek to bring together a broad alliance of groups from many backgrounds around a common stance. CEASE’s work is based on peer reviewed research and survivors’ accounts; it takes the form of advocacy, awareness-raising campaigns, events, lobbying and other strategic actions.
We are looking for a Digital Content Officer to join us at CEASE (Centre to End All Sexual Exploitation). We welcome applications from people who have experience of creating and managing social media content and websites.
