Are you a skilled multi-channel fundraiser or marketeer that would love to create a powerful, positive difference to the lives of cats and their owners across the UK? We are currently recruiting for a Senior Cat Guardians Marketing Officer to join our Legacies & In Memory team. You will join us working 35 hours per week and in return you will receive a competitive salary of up to £37,165.28 per annum plus excellent benefits.

Cats Protection is the UK’s leading feline welfare charity with a nationwide network of adoption and homing centres, volunteer-run branches, and charity shops. During 2020, despite all the challenges, we helped 126,000 cats and kittens. That's the equivalent of around 345 cats a day!

While the physical provision of the Cat Guardians service is a core part of our charitable operations, the nature of promoting it and stewarding individuals during their lifetime means the role itself forms a key part of the Legacy, Cat Guardians and In Memory team, which sits within our Marketing and Income Generation directorate. Legacy and In Memory fundraising is our largest income stream (£33.7m in 2020) and accounts for nearly half of the income we receive every year, with the Cat Guardians service driving significant growth in the number of individuals joining or contributing to those programmes on an annual basis.

The post is one of three senior officer roles reporting into our Legacy and Cat Guardians Marketing Manager, collectively ensuring the efficient and effective implementation of our interlinked programmes and working closely to meet our ambitious plans for growth over the coming years.

You will be responsible for planning and delivering activity, managing an associated budget, and ensuring targets and KPIs are met, as well as collaborating on wider integrated campaigns and projects. The role will also line manage a Cat Guardians Marketing Assistant.

What we’re looking for in our Senior Cat Guardians Marketing Officer:

• Significant experience in a legacy fundraising and/or direct marketing role
• Considerable experience of commissioning and managing external agencies and consultants
• Comfortable reporting and presenting to colleagues, senior management, and external agencies
• Ability to identify innovative new opportunities to recruit new legacy supporters and grow income
• Detailed knowledge of IOF codes of practice, compliance, and data protection legislation for fundraising

What we can offer you:

• salary of up to £37,165.28 per annum plus excellent benefits

• generous annual leave entitlement
• contribution pension scheme
• life assurance scheme
• range of health benefits
• Employee Assistance Programme
• and more

Join us as our Senior Cat Guardians Marketing Officer and know you are helping to make a real difference to cats and kittens across the UK!

About Alzheimer's Society

Dementia devastates lives. By 2021, 1 million people will be living with the condition. But dementia won't win. Until the day we find a cure, Alzheimer's Society will be here for anyone affected by dementia - wherever they are, whatever they're going through. Everything we do is informed and inspired by them.

We are the UK's leading dementia charity. Every day, we work tirelessly to find new treatments and, ultimately, a cure for dementia. We provide expert information, training, and support services to all those who need our help. And we are creating a more dementia-friendly society so people with the condition can live without fear and prejudice.

About the role

You’ll play a vital part in positioning Alzheimer’s Society as the leading dementia charity in the UK at an exciting time for the charity, preparing for the launch of an ambitious new strategy.
You’ll work closely with your job-share Media Manager partner and colleagues across all directorates to keep dementia firmly on the agenda, working with colleagues to develop creative, integrated campaigns that advocate the rights of people with dementia, change public policy, promote the Society as leaders in dementia research and galvanise individuals to join with us as part of a social movement for change.

You’ll play a critical role in successfully continuing and launching ambitious campaigns to address the fact that many people affected by dementia are telling us they simply don't get the care and support they need. You’ll also better ensure Alzheimer’s Society is known for funding research into the cause, cure, care and prevention of dementia.

During the contract period the post holder will play a crucial role in embedding our new social media strategy to support this work, working across teams to get buy-in for a data and impact-driven approach to activity.

As well as managing day-to-day activity across key channels, the team works with a wide range of stakeholders across the organisation to build great user-focused social engagement strategies into our campaigns, spanning owned, earned and paid activity. The role and wider team are also responsible for ensuring that colleagues have the right tools, skills and guidance to use social effectively to support a wide range of business objectives.

About you

We’re looking for a self-motivated, proactive social media expert with experience managing a team using social to deliver on a wide range of objectives. Key areas where you’ll be confident in using social include: creating great experiences for our supporters and service users, generating high levels of engagement and conversion as part of complex digital, and crisis and reputation management. You’ll also be able to identify opportunities to create reach and visibility for Alzheimer’s Society and the role we play to support people affected by dementia.

As well as being able to quickly pick up and run key projects, you’ll have excellent people management and communication skills, and proven experience influencing at all levels to embed change. Working with a range of internal and external stakeholders in a complex organisation to build collaborative relationships will be one of your strengths, as will your ability to develop great, results-driven social engagement strategies across a range of channels and touchpoints.

Most important of all, you’ll need to be passionate about the role of social, and digital more widely, to help us create real change for people affected by dementia.

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.

You may have experience of the following: Social Media Manager, Digital Media Manager, Google Analytics, Social Media Specialist, Social Media Strategist, SEO, PPC, Social Media Marketing Manager, Digital Marketing Manager, Online Engagement, Marketing Manager, etc.

There is a director-shaped hole at Southall Black Sisters. Will you be the one to fill it?

Southall Black Sisters is looking for an exceptional woman with that mix of political vision and management & people skills which will ensure that the organisation retains and grows its iconic place in anti-racist, anti-fundamentalist, feminist politics, and provides an exemplary advocacy service to Black and minoritised women.

Originally set up in 1979, Southall Black Sisters has become a household name. Based in West London but with a national reach and reputation for its landmark legal interventions, its contributions to changes in policy through targeted campaigns and its unique approach to casework and advocacy have brought hope and freedom to countless women who have walked through its doors.

In 1983, we set up a not-for-profit advice, campaigning, resource, and advocacy centre for Black and minoritised women, defending women’s rights and freedoms, with a particular focus on challenging all forms of violence against women, especially in relation to South Asian women. We have been in the forefront of the fight to support migrant women whose escape from domestic violence is complicated by harsh immigration rules and the absence of state benefits.

Be prepared to challenge the state, community leaders, and all patriarchal and racist institutions in support of the women who come to our centre. You should bring substantial experience in a management role, including 5 years at a senior level. You should be committed to our values and have the experience and confidence to present our case to a range of external bodies, including the media and government. You should be able to demonstrate evidence of strategic leadership, and an ability to manage change, and inspire staff teams.

Due to the nature of our work the post is open to women only (exempt under the Equality Act 2010 Schedule 9, Part 1). We particularly welcome applications from Black and minoritised women.

Our supporters are at the heart of this, and this role is a vital link between our community of supporters and the work they make possible.

Reprieve is a UK charity founded in 1999. Reprieve uses strategic interventions to end the use of the death penalty globally, and to end extreme human rights abuses carried out in the name of “counterterrorism” or “national security”.

Reprieve works with the most disenfranchised people in society, as it is in their cases that human rights are most swiftly jettisoned and the rule of law is cast aside. Thus, Reprieve promotes and protects the rights of those facing the death penalty and those who are the victims of extreme human rights abuses carried out in the name of “counterterrorism” or “national security”, with a focus on arbitrary detention, torture, and extrajudicial executions.

Reprieve’s main office is in London, UK. Reprieve also supports full-time Fellows, who work as lawyers, investigators and campaigners in the countries in which we work. We work closely with a number of partner organisations in jurisdictions all over the world, who provide access to clients, expertise, knowledge and guidance on specific issues or regions. We work in cooperation with relevant government officials, individual lawyers and human rights defenders, as well as individual, corporate and foundation funders to further the cause of our shared goals.

The Operations Team supports Reprieve’s work around the globe. The team is the backbone of the organisation, and is responsible for IT, HR, Office Management, Travel, Safety & Security and general Operations for the UK office and provides administrative and HR/logistical support to the office in the US and Reprieve's global operations.

The Operations Officer will work in a team alongside the Head of Operations and the Operations Officer (HR Specialist). The role will include day-to-day office management and procurement support for the UK office, administrative and logistical support for the US office and Reprieve's global operations, managing external enquiries and providing administrative support to the Joint Executive Directors with diary management, supporting their travel and provide operational assistance with fundraising events and Board meetings.

The ideal candidate will be able to manage multiple priorities and have experience supporting members of Senior Management. They will be an excellent organiser of themselves and others, be a hands-on team player and have experience in supporting a busy office. They will have a real passion for operations and Reprieve’s mission.

In a part time, homeworking role, our new Chief Executive Officer will be an effective campaigner who will use The Hygiene Bank’s expertise and network to influence the policy debate around hygiene poverty, as they lead us from our start-up phase to a scale-up phase.

Key details:

Salary: £80,000 pro-rata (part time, 0.8 FTE)

Location: Remote working / homeworking

Holiday: 25 days (pro-rata) plus public holidays

Pension scheme: Defined contribution pension scheme – 3% employer contribution, 5% employee contribution   

Hygiene poverty is a scandal in our society. Many people locked in poverty or those who find themselves in times of crisis often experience restricted options. This leaves them caught between being able to heat their home, pay their rent, buy food or keep clean. Hygiene poverty can be shaming, humiliating and excluding and can result in social isolation. It can lead to a lack of confidence and can negatively affect good health and mental well-being which can impact early childhood development, learning, employability and social interaction.

The Hygiene Bank is a grassroots, people-powered charity and social movement, grounded in community. Our passion stems from the injustice that people may be unable to fully participate in society due to hygiene poverty. This is why we work to inspire social change.

At The Hygiene Bank, we believe it is not right that feeling clean should be a luxury or a privilege for anyone in our society, yet many are living in poverty and cannot afford to stay clean. That is why our network of projects exists – to give people access to the basics they need.

Our new Chief Executive Officer will deliver significant growth both to the charity and to awareness of hygiene poverty. Building on strong existing partnerships with corporates such as Boots and Unilever, they will get us “to the table” at which policy decision are made to effect systemic change to reduce and eliminate hygiene poverty. As CEO, they will also ensure that our fantastic staff and volunteers continue to develop capacity in the number of projects we provide hygiene products to and the amount we provide.

A well as a strong personal alignment with our belief, vision, mission and values, amongst other criteria, our CEO will have:

• Experience of creating and implementing wide reaching strategic plans that deliver on ambitious growth goals (ideally in the charity sector)
• Experience of leading diverse and dispersed remote teams (ideally to include volunteers)
• Experience of actively developing organisational culture in line with vision and values
• Strong track record of effecting external change (ideally at national policy level) through effective campaigning and advocacy
• Demonstrable track record of improvement and change management to continue to drive greater efficiency in the running of an organisation
• Experience of developing and maintaining strategic organisational partnerships
• Experience of generating new relationships and sources of funding

If you would like to receive an Information Pack for this Chief Executive Officer role with details on how to apply, please send an expression of interest and (optional but appreciated) a CV or professional profile in confidence to our consultant, Jenny Hills at Harris Hill, via the apply button. For an informal and confidential conversation about this position, please contact Jenny with suitable times to talk.
