We are currently piloting a hybrid working model for our office-based staff to split their time between site based and home working. We believe this will support office-based staff to maintain the benefits of home working, while allowing for collaboration and interaction with our animal-facing staff and maintaining a connection to our cause.

As this role is office-based, you’ll be expected to work in our Battersea office for 3 days each week and you’ll be able to work up to 2 days each week from home.

So, if you are passionate about dogs, cats and about our work, then we’d like to hear from you.

We are committed to providing equality of opportunity and valuing diversity for all current and prospective staff, volunteers and Trustees. We aim to ensure that this commitment, reinforced by our values, is embedded in our day-to-day working practices and our work together. We would particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic and disabled candidates, who are currently under-represented at Battersea.

Closing date: Sunday 30 January 2022

Interview date(s): w/c 7 February 2022

• Communication flair, with a talent for simplifying complex campaign stories and producing compelling, audience-led direct response content that inspires action.
• Fundraising/marketing experience, including: direct/digital marketing techniques; paid social media acquisition; understanding of the importance of landing page optimisation; use of Photoshop; a real enthusiasm for database marketing.

We give you: The opportunity to continue to develop both personally and professionally, taking advantage of the wide range of learning and development opportunities available to our staff.

Take a look at our Work for Greenpeace pages to find out more about what it’s like to work for us and why you should apply.

The role is based in our London office but may be remote initially. As we progress to a hybrid working model you may have flexibility to work from home but will need to commute into our Islington head office on a regular basis.

Our commitment to diversity: Greenpeace UK is committed to providing equal opportunities for everyone regardless of their background. We acknowledge that people from certain backgrounds are under-represented in environmental and campaigning organisations and we’re committed to doing what we can to correct this. We are particularly keen to receive applications from people of colour; people with disabilities; people who identify as being LGTBQIA; people who have a mental health condition; and people who identify as working class now or in the past.

Greenpeace UK is an inclusive and diversity-friendly employer. We value difference, promote equality and challenge discrimination, enhancing our organisational capability.
