Volunteering in the shop
We are so excited to have reopened the St Andrews Shop with a wonderful new look!
Our St Andrews Shop Volunteers are in the middle of it all, and there’s plenty to get involved with. You might be sorting and pricing stock, engaging with customers, ringing items through the till, creating fantastic window displays or keeping our shop floor looking organised.
It’s up to you how much you commit. We have volunteers who support for a couple of hours a week and some do more. Many people volunteer either a morning or an afternoon each week - this is something that will be discussed at the selection stage, after you’ve applied.
Why volunteer with Save the Children?
In over 110 countries, we support children to transform their lives. By providing live-saving short-term help, and pushing for deep-rooted social change, we help children take, their future into their own hands. We believe every child has the right to learn. Every child should have good food to fuel their bodies and every child should have medicine when they're sick.
Skills and experiences we seek
We welcome applications from people with a wide range of skills and experiences. You don’t need any retail or shop experience as full training will be provided. What’s important to us is that you are a team player, open to learning and to follow our policies as well as be an excellent representative for Save the Children.
We know that our shop teams are stronger when they are inclusive and representative of their communities. Everybody can make a real difference. People come to us for all sorts of reasons, from all backgrounds, and we will do what we can to find a role that works for you.
What happens next?
After you’ve filled in an application, we will invite you for an informal trial shift. It’s a great opportunity to visit the shop, meet some of our existing volunteers and have a go at some of the tasks that you would be supporting with as a shop volunteer. Hopefully allowing you to get a feel for the role and make sure it’s for you. We also ask for a couple of references (these don’t have to be formal workplace ones, just someone who has known you for over 6 months and isn’t related).

Job description
Are you driven by purpose over profit, and motivated to design ethical digital systems that connect awareness to meaningful action?
Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C. is seeking a Founding Volunteer Marketing Automation & Funnel Specialistto help architect the responsible digital infrastructure that supports our growth.
This is not a high-pressure sales automation role.
It is ethical systems design.
Our C.I.C. exists to confront and expose the realities of childhood sexual abuse (CSA), centre survivor truth and accountability, support young people into economic empowerment, and build community-owned, open-source systems that serve people rather than capital.
We are:
-
Values-led
-
Anti-capitalist
-
Community-driven
-
Decentralised by design
We are not here to produce promotional content for clicks alone. We are here to communicate truth responsibly — building trust, inviting participation, and ensuring survivor-centred work is represented with dignity and care.
This role offers the opportunity to help design how a movement grows — responsibly and sustainably.
About the Role
As our Founding Marketing Automation & Funnel Specialist, you will design and maintain the ethical digital workflows that connect campaigns, content, and community engagement.
You will not inherit a finished digital system.
You will help architect it.
Your work will ensure that automation supports participation rather than pressures it. You will design structured, logic-based workflows that guide volunteers, donors, members, and supporters through respectful, safeguarding-aligned digital journeys.
This role blends technical configuration with strategic thinking. You must be comfortable building systems, analysing performance, documenting processes, and collaborating with marketing and leadership teams.

-
Understanding of digital funnels and lifecycle journeys.
-

-
Experience integrating digital systems (email, forms, website, CRM, databases).
-
Understanding of digital performance metrics (conversion, retention, engagement rates).
-
Ability to document systems clearly and transparently.
-
Confidence troubleshooting and improving technical workflows.
-
Willingness to work within safeguarding, GDPR, and ethical data frameworks.
-
Ability to collaborate with copywriters, analysts, and campaign leads.

Equivalent professional or voluntary experience accepted.
Desirable / Can Be Developed
-
Experience working in non-profit, CIC, or community-led organisations.
-
Experience supporting fundraising or awareness campaigns.
-

-
Experience using tools such as Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, HubSpot, Zapier, Salesforce, etc.
-
Ability to analyse performance data and adjust workflows strategically.
Qualifications
Formal qualifications are not required.
Equivalent practical experience in marketing automation or funnel systems is highly valued.
Main Responsibilities / Key Duties
-
Design, develop, and maintain automated workflows linking campaigns, email systems, forms, and databases.
-
Build digital funnels supporting volunteering, fundraising, membership, and community participation.
-
Develop logic-based journeys including triggers, segmentation, and conditional pathways.
-
Integrate platforms across website, CRM, email systems, and content tools.
-
Collaborate with copywriters and campaign teams to align messaging with workflow structure.
-
Monitor and evaluate funnel performance using agreed metrics.
-
Optimise supporter journeys based on behavioural data and feedback.
-
Ensure compliance with GDPR, safeguarding, and consent standards.
-
Document workflows clearly and maintain structured systems records.
-
Identify inefficiencies and recommend structural improvements.
-
Support A/B testing and performance experimentation.
-
Flag potential data protection or reputational risks.
-
Contribute to building scalable, decentralised digital infrastructure.
-
Help define and uphold ethical automation principles within the C.I.C.
What You Gain
-
Founding-level experience in ethical marketing automation and systems architecture.
-
Leadership exposure in responsible data and infrastructure design.
-
Opportunity to build scalable digital systems from the ground up.
-
Direct contribution to fundraising sustainability and community growth.
-
Cross-functional experience across digital marketing and operational strategy.

-
Prefer low-responsibility or short-term volunteering.
-
Are uncomfortable working within safeguarding and trauma-informed frameworks.
-
Prefer not to document or maintain systems.
-
Dislike collaboration or structured processes.
Next Steps
Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:
-
A values-led conversation
-
A practical discussion about automation systems and funnel design
If you understand that automation must serve dignity before efficiency, and that data must never compromise trust, we want to hear from you.
-
Are seeking purely commercial automation or aggressive sales optimisation work.
