This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled and thoughtful communicator to lead our communications and advocacy work during a period of maternity cover.
At Martin James Foundation, we work alongside a network of committed partners who lead change for children and families in their contexts. Our role is to contribute where we can, granting funds, sharing learning, supporting campaigns, influencing systems and amplifying the good work already happening. You’ll lead on implementing our communications and advocacy strategy, manage key partnerships, and strengthen our presence across digital platforms. You’ll also support internal communications projects.
This role is central to how we tell our story, build meaningful collaboration, influence change and ensure the voices of those with lived experience are prioritised, listened to and able to lead change.
About Martin James Foundation
The Martin James Foundation (MJF) is a global network of charitable organisations working with a shared vision: a world in which children grow up and thrive in safe and loving families.
The Foundation is made up of:
· MJF Global – our programmes team, which uses the Foundation’s technical and financial resources to support locally rooted partner organisations around the world. Together, we work to strengthen families and reduce reliance on orphanages, contributing to global efforts to reform children’s care.
· Key Assets – a group of independent, non-profit fostering agencies operating in Australia, Canada and New Zealand. With over 30 years’ experience, they provide foster care, family strengthening, and support for people with disabilities. Their trauma-informed approach is built on strong partnerships and a commitment to meeting the unique needs of those they serve.
The Need
Millions of children are separated from their families, not because they have no one to care for them, but because of poverty, crisis, or a lack of support. Many end up in orphanages, yet removing a child from a struggling family does not solve poverty. It can deepen harm, sever vital family bonds, and leave children more vulnerable to instability, trafficking, and lifelong inequality. Our mission is to reduce the reliance on institutional care by supporting proven alternatives and advocating for systemic change.
What You’ll Do
Advocacy & Policy Influence
- Lead the delivery of advocacy strategies to raise awareness about the benefits of family-based care and the harms of institutions, including orphanages
- Manage MJF Global’s advocacy partnerships, supporting joint campaigns and influencing initiatives

Stakeholder Engagement & Partnerships
- Support MJF’s global marketing working group by co-coordinating with marketing leads across Key Assets
- Strengthen relationships with internal teams and external collaborators, ensuring alignment on messaging and values
- Provide guidance to global partners, as requested/required, developing and implementing their own communications plans
Operational Comms & Tools
- Manage CRM platforms (e.g., MailChimp), website updates (WordPress), and file sharing (SharePoint and Google Drive)
- Use project management tools to track campaign and content workflows
- Lead quarterly reporting on communications and advocacy performance
What We’re Looking For
We’re seeking someone who is not only an excellent communicator but also a values-led leader, someone who can work with sensitivity across contexts and cultures, while keeping an eye on strategy and detail.
Essential
- An enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) or your country equivalent certificate (can be obtained upon appointment)
- Experience leading and implementing communications and/or advocacy strategies in the charity, NGO, or development sectors
- Strong understanding of care reform, family strengthening, or children’s rights issues
- Ability to manage relationships and partnerships, particularly in advocacy, policy or public affairs work
- Excellent communication skills across formats including written, verbal and visual. Fluency in English is required.
- A collaborative, curious and proactive mindset, with the ability to work independently and across cultures

Desirable
- Experience working in or with organisations in the Global South
- Familiarity with digital tools like Canva, WordPress, MailChimp, or Adobe Suite
- Experience in journalism, media relations, or public policy advocacy
- Confidence using communications to support locally led, ethical storytelling and systems change
