How to Apply

TO APPLY

If you would like to apply for this position, please click the apply button and attach your CV and Supporting Statement (No more than two sides of A4) addressing the Person Specification.

Interviews will take place in our office week commencing 2nd December 19.

Why join us?
Would you like to join a dynamic team that is supporting a growing movement of communities that are building genuinely and permanently affordable homes? Will you enjoy working in a small team and with partner organisations to boost the profile of community land trusts, make the case to government, and make our projects successful through effective communication?

Community land trusts (CLTs) are a growing force for social good. They are set up and run by ordinary people to develop and manage homes as well as community shops, pubs and other assets that are important to that community. They aim to make sure the homes are permanently affordable, based on what people actually earn in their area.

As the communications and campaigns officer you will play a key role in supporting the National CLT Network’s team on our core communications, campaigns and events activities.

About the National CLT Network
National CLT Network is the national membership body for community land trusts established in 2010. The National CLT Network provides resources, training and advice for CLTs, and works with government, local authorities, lenders and funders to establish the best conditions for CLTs to grow and flourish.

We are a small, dedicated and ambitious team. Our strategy is to scale up the CLT movement and to develop our charity into a strong, viable and resilient social enterprise. We are also part of major partnerships to build up the infrastructure across the country for all forms of community led housing, and to scale up the CLT movement across North-West Europe.

Our successes have had the following impact:

• A rapid growth in CLTs from 30 in 2010 to over 300 in 2019;

• One in three local authorities providing some kind of support to CLTs in their area;

• 935 homes built by CLTs with another 16,600 community led homes in the pipeline.

About the role
This is a varied role. You will see the impact of your work on successful projects, and on CLTs and their achievements locally. The communications and campaigns officer works with team members across the organisation, gets to know our work deeply and has the opportunity to travel to meet our inspiring CLT members. You will also work closely with the co-chief executive, responsible for our advocacy campaigning and lobbying work, getting first-hand knowledge of how to influence government policy to help our members to thrive.

You will use this knowledge to create compelling content across a variety of mediums from blogs and newsletters to video interviews, creating lobbying and campaign materials for groups to use and ensuring our website showcases the best of what we do, and helps CLTs to succeed.

You’ll also support the delivery of successful events that are highly valued by our members. At our last AGM, 100% of attendees said they would recommend attending to other members. You’ll see wonderful people form connections, draw inspiration and go on to provide new homes that are really needed by their communities.

The challenges and opportunities for this role in the coming year include:

• Supporting the communications manager to create a new brand and a new website for the network.

• Working with the co-chief executive and others on our acclaimed advocacy campaigns that have made significant gains for the CLT movement, ensuring they can continue to build genuinely affordable homes.

• Playing a key role in developing, and delivering a new programme of events such as a national conference and “See It and Believe It” peer to peer events where new groups get inspired by visiting successful CLTs whose residents are enjoying their new homes.

About you
This is an exciting and career-enhancing role. It could be the right opportunity for a range of potential candidates. Your motivations might be many and varied – from wanting to develop your career in communications or advocacy campaigning, to having a passion for housing or communities, or because you want more responsibility and the opportunity to work in a growing charity where you can use your initiative and develop your potential.

It is particularly for you if you: enjoy a variety of tasks and challenges, are a team player, a strong communicator, flexible, organised, and have a strong attention to detail. You will also feel strongly about the importance of social justice and the difference that CLTs and community-led housing can make. Whatever your motivations the National CLT Network would like to hear from you.

Details
The role is for a full time, permanent post. The working hours are 9-5, Monday to Friday, with a one-hour lunch break. The salary is £25,450 – £30,750 per annum depending on skills and experience

Benefits include 30 days annual leave + bank holidays, a generous employer match scheme for pension contributions, healthcare and a personal training budget.

The organisation

Unlocked Graduates is an award-winning organisation that aims to change the way we develop society’s future leaders, as well as how we think about prisons and prisoners by focusing on rehabilitation, and addressing the damage and cost of reoffending.

At the core of Unlocked Graduates is a new leadership programme that will get top graduates into prisons working as frontline prison officers for two years. The project grew out of a recommendation in the Coates’ Review of prison education.

Our participants are asked to focus on rehabilitation and breaking cycles of re-offending to give second chances to those who lacked opportunities earlier in life. This work will form part of their studies for a master’s degree which they will complete while taking on the full duties of a frontline prison officer. At the end of the programme they will be asked to develop policy ideas that they think have the potential to influence systemic change.

It’s a model we know can work to improve public services – recent research on the Teach First scheme credited their work for a measurable improvement in London schools.

We want the programme to raise the status of a currently invisible and undervalued public service by attracting a different type of leader to work in prisons and help identify ways to reform the prison system, reduce re-offending and improve rehabilitation. We also want our participants to consider entering other professions and sectors at the end of the two years and are building corporate relationships to offer such opportunities.

The role

This is a critical role that offers the chance to shape and drive the Unlocked Graduates voice across a range of digital, social and print channels. Working closely with colleagues across the organisation – especially in recruitment – this role will drive the placement of targeted content to drive applications and build the reputation of Unlocked Graduates.

With lots of opportunity for copywriting and the management of video production and design projects, s/he will be familiar with, or willing to build a high level of competency in, a range of social media channels as well as acting as the primary internal web editor.

Key accountabilities will include the following.

• Edit all digital content for external audiences, writing content for web, newsletters and social media channels.
• Oversee effective media monitoring (including managing interns) to ensure the organisation stays abreast of all relevant stories, identifying positive prison news for use on social media etc.
• Manage external creative, media buying and web development agencies to ensure new content is developed and delivered on time and to a high standard.
• Drive the dissemination of this content, maintaining a rigorous editorial calendar and leading regular website reviews to identify and share high quality content.
• Maintain a cutting-edge knowledge of the best way to use social media channels to maximum effect, steadily growing our audiences and ensuring high levels of engagement.
• Project manage complex print, design and video production projects, including working with participants, colleagues and partners in government and the third sector to arrange interviews and access to prisons.
• Identify and draft high-quality award entries to highlight the achievements of Unlocked Graduates.
• Assist the delivery of occasional high-profile events.

Dependent on experience, there will also be opportunities to:

• Act as the first point of contact for media, managing speedy responses to questions and develop pitch ideas.
• Monitor for relevant policy and parliamentary developments to identify opportunities to engage with parliamentarians and policy-makers.

Knowledge and experience

• Demonstrable relevant experience with a proven record in:
  • Managing excellent websites, preferably with a working knowledge of WordPress to effectively manage developers and a good knowledge of SEO principles.
  • Growing engaged, opted-in audiences on social media channels (especially Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn).

• Excellent written communication and presentation skills and an ability to build strong relationships with a wide range of people. 

• Good data analysis skills, with the ability to interpret data and statistics to develop stories and content.
• Computer literate, especially in the use of Microsoft. Technical design skills, from the design features in Word and PowerPoint through to video-editing and design programmes would also be desirable.
• Knowledge of, or a willingness to quickly build, competency in MailChimp and social media management tools such as Buffer, Tweetdeck etc.
