Communication jobs

Liberty is an independent campaigning organisation. At Liberty, we challenge injustice, defend freedom and campaign to make sure everyone in the UK is treated fairly. In 2020, Liberty launched an exciting new project using the tools of investigative journalism to expose and challenge abuses of power and violations of human rights: Liberty Investigates.

We believe rigorously pursued, collaborative investigative journalism can be instrumental in challenging abuses of power, and we believe it’s needed now more than ever. The team, currently made up of the Investigations Editor and two Investigative Journalists, undertakes work designed to have real-world impact – by holding power accountable, changing narratives and sparking positive change in human rights.

Our small team has worked with publishing partners including the Times, the Guardian, the Observer, Independent, Sky News, Channel 4 News, and local press. We’ve been shortlisted for the Private Eye Paul Foot Award twice, were finalists two years running for the Orwell Prize for Exposing Britain’s Social Evils, and were recently shortlisted for the European Press Prize.

Funding has allowed us to recruit another reporter on a 12-month fixed-term contract, and we are looking for an ambitious Investigative Journalist to help us deliver more impactful work in 2026.

You will need to understand the power of telling stories and the role that journalism plays in mobilising action in the public interest. You will need a passion for upholding high factual and ethical standards. You will be excited about working in a multi-disciplinary campaigning organisation, and you will have excellent newsgathering, writing and contact-building skills.

At Liberty we are striving to build a team that is truly inclusive – we understand that as an organisation we can only work at our best when we have a diverse workforce sharing a wealth of ideas and experiences. We therefore encourage applications from marginalised groups, particularly people of colour, trans and non-binary people and disabled people. Liberty supports hybrid working, with a minimum of two days per week in the Westminster office.

The deadline for applications is 9am Monday 12 January 2026

Applications received after this deadline will not be considered.

First round interviews will be held on Thursday 5 February

Second round interview will be held on the week commencing 9 February

Please apply via the job board on our website.

About us

Vitol has a long history of charitable giving, making its first charitable grant in 2002. The Vitol Foundation was established in 2006, registered in Switzerland and operating independently from Vitol’s business interests.  Since then, the Vitol Foundation has funded over 2,000 projects in more than 120 countries around the world.

The Vitol Foundation aims to make a difference in the lives of people around the world trapped in poverty. We are passionate about supporting organisations and programmes that can take children and their families in the poorest of countries across the world out of the vicious cycle of multi-dimensional poverty.

Our work is focused on five core areas: education, health, humanitarian, water sanitation and hygiene, and local giving through Vitol’s offices worldwide.

By providing different types of financing to non-governmental organisations and social enterprises, we aim to:

• Fund transformational, efficient, sustainable, scalable and replicable investments to support and strengthen government, private sector and community systems to provide sustainable health, water, sanitation and hygiene, education and employment opportunities.
• Address the systemic issues that make humanitarian crises more acute, by funding resilience and preparation in addition to recovery.
• Share models of evidence-based best practice that can be scaled by government, private sector and/or communities.
• Act responsibly with diverse partners with sensitivity to their circumstances and cultural contexts.
• Increase engagement and leverage the knowledge base of the Vitol Group worldwide.
   

About the role

The Impact and Learning Consultant will play a central role in advancing how the Vitol Foundation understands, measures and deepens its impact. They will build on existing frameworks, tools and processes developed by our Head of Impact, Learning and Strategy who is due to go on maternity leave, as well as bring their own expertise to further strengthen our approach to impact and learning, embedding it into our day-to-day decisions. As our lead expert in this area, the Consultant will ensure that our strategy and grantmaking are guided by emerging data and evidence, and support continuous learning across all our work.

The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in the field of measurement and evaluation, combining strategic leadership experience with strong hands-on technical skills to support Foundation colleagues and nonprofit partners. They will have experience with a wide range of quantitative and qualitative research methods and working in global settings, especially to support local partners operating in low-resource and/or emergency environments. This role requires someone with excellent communication skills, translating complex findings into clear, actionable insights tailored to different audiences, including Vitol Foundation colleagues, our board and non-technical external stakeholders.

Above all, the candidate must demonstrate a strong commitment to the vision, mission and values of the Vitol Foundation and improving people’s lives. They will report directly to our CEO and be part of a small but enthusiastic team of people committed to making a difference. The position is based at the Foundation’s office in London, United Kingdom.

We work closely with a network of 900 museums and respond to their needs and aspirations. We're excited to see how they want to develop: to expand and diversify their collections and workforce, develop curatorial skills, make ambitious acquisitions, and create a welcoming, inclusive space for communities. With the support of over 140,000 members who buy a National Art Pass, patrons, and donors we can provide grants, encourage visiting and advocate for museums' essential role and value.

We have diversity, inclusion, and sustainability central to our thinking and the opportunity to be a force for good, galvanise support and help change things for the better inspires our team.

What you’ll bring

• Proven success delivering multi-channel campaigns for youth, student, membership or subscription audiences
• Experience leading product development or evolution, from insight gathering to proposition refinement, and contributing to long-term strategic planning that delivers sustainable audience and income growth
• Experience using data, insight and segmentation to drive marketing decisions and optimise customer journeys
• Strong understanding of CRM, lifecycle marketing and retention strategies
