About Heard
We are a multi-award-winning charity on a mission to change the world through the power of stories. In 2024, we sparked stories that reached 39 million people, tackling some of the most pressing issues of our time from climate change to trans rights.
We don’t just talk about change; we embed it into the fabric of popular culture. By partnering with major media outlets and up-skilling over 600 professionals annually, we ensure that the narratives shaping our society are impactful, sustainable, and rooted in lived experience.
The Role
As a programme coordinator, you will be supporting our programme focused on children’s health. You'll manage the day-to-day operations of work that directly shifts how the public and media think, feel, and act.
You will work with the media, collaborating with storytellers in TV, film, and news, facilitate sector training to help professionals embed framing into their communications, and co-create with people with lived experience as part of trusted messenger work to ensure voices are fairly and impactfully represesnted.
What You’ll Be Doing
This is a varied, hands-on role perfect for someone who loves to keep moving parts in sync. Your focus will evolve as the programme grows, but your core mission will include:
-
Operational Coordination: Managing day-to-day tasks to keep our strategies on track.
-
Project Delivery: Coordinating with partners, consultants, and colleagues to ensure smooth delivery of activities.
-
Events & Activities: Helping run the sessions and events that make our narrative change possible.
-
