We’re seeking a Supporter Journey Officer to join our Innovative and Performance team, supporting the work of the Income and Engagement directorate by delivering an inspiring and impactful programme of stewardship to our contactable community.

It is an increasingly exciting time to join Versus Arthritis, a leading national charity delivering world class research and services, and campaigning on issues that matter most to people with arthritis.  
 
The Supporter Journey Officer is a new role within the Supporter Journey team. This role will suit a proactive team player who has experience in the fundraising sector together with a keen interest in, and knowledge of, supporter experience and stewardship. Strong communication skills – both written and verbal - are a must.

About the role

As the Supporter Journey Officer, you will assist the Supporter Journey Manager with the development and elevation of an integrated supporter journey programme at Versus Arthritis, ensuring our contactable community receives a consistent and highly engaging supporter experience, which builds loyalty and inspires action. 

This will include delivery of audience focused, integrated organisational journeys that build on our highly motivated community of supporters, based on shared values. These journeys will be managed across our platforms and audiences to significantly grow our voluntary income and lifetime value. You will be responsible for the delivery of communications across channels, including email, post and text messaging, ensuring accurate and timely implementation of agreed communications.

Central to increasing loyalty and inspiring positive action from our audience, we share the extent of the work being done by Versus Arthritis for the 10 million people in the UK living with arthritis. Alongside product managers, you will work to optimise in-product journeys across the organisation through consultancy and shared learning. You will work collaboratively with the head of department and other directorate colleagues to create and embed a fundraising and engagement culture across the organisation.

A key part of the role is to provide practical, administrative support and to lead on facilitating the collection of insight evaluation and future development, ensuring this supports team performance and learning. We’re a small and dynamic team at the forefront of innovating the charity’s Income and Engagement directorate.

This is a unique opportunity to shape how we communicate with our supporters across multiple channels – including email, post and SMS – ensuring that everyone who interacts with Versus Arthritis feels valued, inspired, and connected to our cause. 

About you

If your knowledge, skills and experience include the following then we’d love to hear from you:

• Experience writing in different styles and producing content for different audiences. 
• Experience delivering audience focused engagement strategies and communications, with excellent copywriting skills.
• Creative and curious, excited to research and test new ways of engaging with supporters, with an appetite to learn about approaches from across and beyond the sector.

• Excellent stakeholder management skills and the ability to engage with and influence others, both internally and externally, in person and in writing.
• A proactive ‘can do’ attitude and desire to learn and develop as the team’s influence and input grows. 
• The ability to work on different priorities and manage time effectively to meet deadlines.
• An interest in improving the lives of people with arthritis and the willingness to gain knowledge of arthritis and musculoskeletal conditions.

*As a hybrid worker the expectation is that you will spend around 40% of your working time in our office spaces or working in community settings. As an inclusive employer we will consider home-based working for anyone where office-based hybrid working would be a barrier to being able to work for us, for example for someone living with a long-term health condition or disability.

• Health and wellbeing support – including the Employee Assistance Programme (free confidential 24/7 support with mental health, legal and financial queries).

Job Summary: Coordinating and improving student democracy to ensure all student voices are heard and acted upon

Who we are
 

Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfil potential; we help make it happen. 
 

Founded in 1897, LSE Students' Union is one of the oldest Students' Unions in the UK and is the representative and campaigning body for students at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).  Like other Students' Unions, it also funds and facilitates student activities of campus, including societies, sports clubs through the Athletics Union (AU), the Media Group and Raising and Giving (RAG) charitable fundraising initiatives. 

 

About the job
 

LSESU is looking for someone who is highly organised and passionate about student experience to join our Student Voice Team. You will need to have a good eye for detail, a proactive approach, and be willing to get stuck into all aspects of student democracy. The successful candidate will support the Student Voice Team in the delivery of LSESU’s democratic processes, and lead on key projects such as our annual elections.
 

This role will involve supporting with a variety of tasks, including liaising with key stakeholders, engagement and outreach planning, and database administration. This is the ideal opportunity for someone with an ability to work collaboratively with people, and a passion for delivering high quality opportunities for membership engagement.
 

Who are we looking for?
 

We are looking for a highly motivated team player who is passionate about delivering change within a dynamic and democratic organisation. The successful candidate will have great communication skills and will be able to work with a variety of stakeholders. An interest in democratic procedure and processes, a commitment to equality and diversity, and an ability to handle politically sensitive situations, are all key to the successful delivery of this role.
 

Further to the above, we’re also looking for someone who is proficient in both Microsoft Office, and various social media platforms, and who holds excellent time management skills.
 

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who wants to get stuck in, contribute to an effective team dynamic, and make a difference. Students’ Unions are innovative, dynamic places to work and we’re so excited about what we’ve got in store for LSE students.
 

 Why apply?
 

Because you’re excited by the challenge! The exact opposite of corporate, we’re progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces.
 

Benefits and Perks
 

In return for your passion and experience we offer:
 

• 25 days of holiday per year (pro rata)
• Additional closure periods at Christmas and Easter
• Free LSE Students’ Union gym membership (including advice from dedicated professionals)
• Cycle to Work scheme enabling significant savings on bicycle purchase

How we recruit
 

We want to ensure all systems, policies and processes are free from bias or discrimination and are fair and accessible, therefore we ask that all candidates complete our Application Process in two stages:
 

Part 1: Supporting Statement (cover letter) is all about you telling us about your suitability for the role and will be used to determine if you are shortlisted for an interview.

·       Q3. Please tell us about a time where you have had to juggle multiple priorities from different people and how you handled this.

 

Part 2: (Equal Opportunities Monitoring and Contact Form) is personal information – so we can contact you if you are shortlisted for the interview. It also helps us gather and analyse demographic information about our applicants. This part will only be seen by HR and will not have any impact on shortlisting. 
 
Part 3: CV
 

Application forms are formatted to ensure the equality monitoring data is removed before applications are seen by the shortlisting panel. This process allows us to ensure that the shortlisting is done in a fair and consistent manner and all applicants are given the same opportunity to demonstrate their abilities.
