Abuse changes childhoods, but so could you.
- Are you looking for a role in an organisation where the work you do makes a real difference to people's lives?
- Are you looking to develop your fundraising experience in a sector leading team?
If the answer is yes, then the High Value Communications Officer role could be for you.
Every childhood is worth fighting for. This is our belief. We all share it. And it drives our Fundraising team to get out there and bring in the funds we need to protect children and prevent abuse. Join us as a High Value Communications Officer, and get more people involved in change that means everything.

- Are you great at working collaboratively with colleagues and managing your workload to meet competing deadlines?
- Are you a strong project manager with great organsiation skills?
If so, we want to hear from you.
