The Role

Your time will be split across three core focus areas:

• Digital Marketing & Communications: Execute our marketing strategy and audience growth priorities across all digital channels. Craft engaging monthly newsletters and use digital communications to build strong relationships with our supporters .  Support the structured growth and marketing of HFTF’s consultancy and paid services to attract, secure and nurture relationships with our partners.

We’re Together Active, a charity working across Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent to make it easier for people to be active in ways that fit their lives.

We focus on the systems that shape who gets included and who doesn’t. That means looking beyond individual behaviours to understand how policy, funding, culture and place influence people’s choices, freedoms and access to movement.

Safeguarding is fundamental to that work. It isn't just about policies or responding when something goes wrong. It's about creating a culture where people's welfare is everyone's responsibility, where concerns are acted upon with care and confidence, and where trust underpins everything we do.

We're looking for someone who shares those values. Someone who combines sound judgement with empathy, who is confident supporting colleagues and partners through complex situations, and who sees safeguarding not as a separate function, but as an essential part of creating positive experiences for everyone who engages with our work.

If you feel excited by the opportunity to help shape a culture where people feel safe, supported and able to thrive, we'd be delighted to receive your application.
