We are entering an exciting new chapter: developing our fundraising arm, expanding into new audiences, and working more closely than ever to tell our shared story as one global movement. It’s a moment of transformation and opportunity — and we’re looking for someone who can help us share that story with the world.
About the Role
We are looking for a Social Media and Engagement Officer with a genuine passion for conversation, connection, and community. This is not a broadcasting role — it’s about dialogue. You’ll be the voice of St John International across our social media channels, engaging with audiences in real time, responding thoughtfully to emerging conversations, and finding opportunities to amplify our work and our people.
You’ll help us grow beyond our traditional audiences, reaching new spaces and communities, and positioning St John International as a global leader in first aid and humanitarian service. You’ll work closely with the Communications Team to bring our quarterly communications strategies to life and ensure every post, comment, and interaction reflects our shared purpose and values.
The role reports to the Director of Communications and works closely with colleagues in the Fundraising Team and our network of international communicators across 44 St John Establishments.

Work closely with colleagues across Establishments to gather stories, visuals, and insights that highlight our global impact.
-
Ensure all content and engagement reflect an understanding of cultural diversity, political sensitivity, and our international context.
-
Use social media analytics tools to monitor performance, report on engagement growth and sentiment, and provide insights to inform future strategy.
-
Occasionally attend events or workshops (in the UK or abroad) to capture stories and build relationships with partners.
About You
-
You’re a natural communicator who thrives on genuine interaction and knows how to build rapport online.
-
You have a strong grasp of brand voice and can adapt tone and messaging to suit different audiences and contexts.
-
You’re curious and empathetic — able to navigate complex or conflicting information and find clarity in nuance.
-
You’re globally minded, culturally sensitive, and politically aware, with a good understanding of how narratives play differently across international regions.
-
You have demonstrable experience managing social media channels for an organisation, ideally with an international, humanitarian, or non-profit focus.
-
You’re proactive and creative, with an eye for storytelling and a commitment to continuous improvement.
-
You can confidently use analytics tools to measure and interpret social media performance.
-
Experience with tools such as Meta Business Suite, MailChimp, or similar is desirable.
