Entry level jobs

No one enjoys medical procedures, least of all children. From facing everyday vaccinations 
to the most serious of surgeries and chronic conditions, all children experience varying 
degrees of apprehension and fear. Feeling scared, powerless, or anxious in healthcare 
settings doesn’t just trigger a child’s emotions; it can create traumas that impact treatment 
success and that can have a life-long impact. Starlight’s aim is to transform children’s 
health through better experiences, by putting play at the heart of every child’s healthcare.

Reporting to the Communications & Brand Manager, the Digital Content Creator will create 
engaging, high-quality digital content that brings Starlight's work to life across social media, 
the website and other digital channels.

The role will work closely with colleagues across the organisation to capture and tell stories 
that demonstrate the impact of Starlight's work, amplify the voices of children, young 
people and families, and support fundraising, campaigns, partnerships and organisational 
communications.

The postholder will be responsible for planning, creating and publishing digital content 
across multiple platforms, helping to build engagement with Starlight's audiences while 
ensuring all content reflects the organisation's brand, values and strategic priorities.
