At Help for Heroes, we believe every veteran deserves the opportunity to live well after service.
When a military career ends – especially due to illness or injury life – can change overnight. Jobs are lost, routines disrupted, and the vital camaraderie of service life fades. That’s where we step in. We’re here to support veterans, their families, serving personnel, and those who stood beside the UK Armed Forces.

You’ll create engaging digital assets – from social posts and graphics to short-form videos and motion graphics – amplifying our voice and impact across web, email, and social media. You'll work across teams including Brand, Fundraising and Recovery, producing content that inspires supporters and empowers our Armed Forces Community.
You’ll collaborate closely with our Senior Graphic Designer, Creative Artworker, Videographer, Social Media Leads, and the wider Content team. Together, we’ll make sure our creative output is bold, consistent and full of heart.
About You

- A solid grasp of social media trends and digital best practice
- The ability to adapt tone and messaging for a range of audiences
- a minimum of 2 years’ experience working in a similar or comparable role
Most importantly, you care about the difference your work makes – and you bring warmth, passion and purpose to everything you do.
About the Team
We’re a small, friendly, and mighty in-house team with big ambitions. We collaborate, we challenge each other, and we support each other – because we know the power of great storytelling.
Our team values reflect our culture:
