Support service manager jobs in Norfolk

The Role

We are seeking a creative, organised and audience-focused Social Media Officer to help myaware develop a more coordinated, consistent and effective social media presence.

This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in how myaware reaches, supports and engages people affected by myasthenia, as well as families, carers, supporters, fundraisers, healthcare professionals and the wider public. The role will help move myaware’s social media activity from a reactive, team-by-team approach to a more planned and strategic function that supports awareness, fundraising, professional services, membership growth, community engagement and brand consistency.

Working closely with the IT and Digital Communications Manager, Fundraising, Professional Services and colleagues across the organisation, you will help plan, create, schedule and evaluate social media content across myaware’s channels. You will support the development of a social media content calendar, create clear and engaging copy, produce accessible and brand-aligned graphics, and help teams turn their knowledge, updates and campaign activity into content that works for myaware’s audiences.

You will also support the development of reusable templates, clearer content processes, social media reporting, and appropriate use of tools such as Canva, Adobe Creative Cloud and AI-assisted content creation. The role will involve helping myaware make stronger use of formats such as posts, carousels, Stories, Reels, short-form video, polls and direct-message-led campaign activity, while ensuring content remains accurate, sensitive, accessible and appropriate for a health charity.

The Social Media Officer will be predominantly home based within the UK, with occasional travel required. The role will work collaboratively across myaware to support awareness activity, fundraising campaigns, events, community engagement, professional services, membership activity and wider digital communications.

Who We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone with experience creating social media content for an organisation, charity, campaign, community group or similar setting. You will be confident writing clear and engaging copy for different audiences, using social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X/Twitter, YouTube or similar, and creating or adapting simple graphics using tools such as Canva, Adobe Creative Cloud or equivalent.

You will understand how social media can support awareness, fundraising, services, membership and community engagement, and you will be able to plan and organise content across multiple priorities. You will have a good eye for clarity, accessibility, tone and brand consistency, and be comfortable working with colleagues across different teams to turn ideas into effective social media content.

We are particularly interested in someone who is creative but practical, organised and reliable, warm in their communication style, and sensitive when working with health-related or personal content. You do not need to know everything about myasthenia before applying, but you should be willing to learn about the condition and the needs of people affected by it.

Experience in a charity, health, disability, community or membership organisation would be useful, as would experience supporting fundraising or event promotion through social media, creating Stories, Reels or carousel content, using analytics to improve content planning, or supporting campaigns and awareness activity.

Most importantly, you will share myaware’s values and be committed to helping us reach, support and connect more people affected by myasthenia.

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.

 About Alexandra Rose Charity 

We should all be able to eat healthy food. But right now, healthy options cost more than twice as much as junk food. It’s getting harder and harder for people to put good food on the table.

We’re on a mission to give people access to their choice of fresh fruit & veg, in the heart of their community. At Alexandra Rose, we are proud to deliver a mix of practical, place-based projects and national advocacy to shape a fairer future, where everyone can afford and enjoy fresh fruit & veg with dignity.

Become is the national charity fighting alongside children and young people for a better care system. We believe care-experienced young people should have the same chances as everyone else to live happy and fulfilled lives. But today, that’s far from the reality. The care system is in crisis and there are more children in care than ever before. They aren’t getting the love, support and stability that all young people need.

It’s not good enough.

We’re in a strong position to respond and it’s an exciting moment to be joining us. We’ve grown in recent years and have clear plans for the future.

As the Marketing and Communications Manager, you’ll lead the day-to-day delivery of our marketing and communications work. You’ll turn ideas into action, delivering engaging campaigns, compelling storytelling and consistent communications across all our channels. Working closely with the team across Become, external stakeholders and care-experienced young people to grow our reach, you'll build brand trust and strengthen our position as the national voice for care-experienced young people.

We're looking for someone with a strong background in digital marketing, an eye for design and a passion for amplifying young people’s voices. A natural collaborator, you’ll enjoy working in a dynamic environment that encourages proactive thinking, experimentation and ongoing learning.

Location

Our team work remotely from home, with some required in-person meetings (generally expected once or twice per month). In-person meetings usually take place in our office space in Old Street, London and Become covers the cost of travel within Great Britain for essential in-person meetings.

The Old Street office space is available for team members to work from if preferred/needed. For non-London based team members hot-desking options near you can be requested if required.

Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

As an organisation serving children in care and young care leavers, we’re keen to receive applications from people with lived experience of care. We are actively seeking to bring diversity of perspectives and experience, and especially welcome applications from those from racially-minoritised communities. We ask all applicants to fill in an Equity and Diversity Monitoring form to better understand the diversity of applicants. This is optional, and anonymous and it will not be connected with your application.

How to apply

To apply please complete the application form on our recruitment platform by the application deadline.

The application form requires you to:
 

• Upload your up-to-date CV.
• Provide your answer to each competency question, using between100 and 400 words per answer. Please ensure you provide relevant examples that demonstrate how you meet the required skills and experiences as outlined in the job advert and description.

We also ask you to complete the Equity and Diversity Monitoring Form (this is not compulsory, but can help us identify areas we need to look at within our processes).

The competency questions we would like you to answer as part of the application form (using between 100 and 400 words per answer) are:

1. Tell us about a marketing and communications campaign that you’ve delivered to drive change. How did you measure its impact?
2. Give an example of when you’ve introduced new digital tools to your team. What were the opportunities and risks?
3. Tell us about a time when you’ve supported people whose voices are underrepresented to have their stories heard. What were the key considerations when providing this support?
4. We’re a busy team managing proactive and reactive work. Give an example of how you’ve supported a team member’s development alongside competing priorities.
5. What is your motivation to work for Become and why are you interested in working for an organisation that supports care-experienced children and young people?

If you have any questions about the role, please contact Victoria Wilson, Head of Marketing and Communications by e-mail (see Become website for contact form).

If you are successful at sift stage, you will be invited to interviews. Our process includes two interview panels – a Young Persons Panel, and a Staff Panel.

Interviews will take place on:

• Young Persons Panel – Wednesday 23 September
• Staff Panel – Thursday 24 September

Please note, you will receive two interview invites (one for each panel). Please ensure you book one slot for each panel. If you do not accept your invite to interview, book your interview slots or contact us 48 hours ahead of the first interview date, we will assume you no longer want to progress your application and you will be withdrawn from the process.
