This Role Is Where Trust Is Built—or Lost
At Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C., social media is not a marketing channel. It is often the first place someone tells the truth. The first place a survivor speaks. The first place a young person asks for help, direction, or hope. The Social Media Engagement Officer is the human presence behind our platforms — responding, guiding, holding boundaries, and directing people safely into the right parts of our ecosystem. This is not a growth-hacking role. This is a trust, discernment, and care role.
Purpose of the Role
The Social Media Engagement Officer ensures that every interaction on our digital platforms is:
- Human, not automated
- Trauma-aware, not reactive
- Boundaried, not extractive
- Purpose-led, not performative
You are the bridge between content and community — between attention and action.
Experience Qualification and Requirements
Essential experience
- Experience in community engagement, online community management, moderation, or customer support where tone, safety, and trust matter.
- Experience communicating in sensitive contexts (e.g., advocacy, youth work, frontline/community roles, safeguarding-adjacent environments).
- Experience handling challenging messages, conflict, harassment, or emotionally charged content with professionalism and calm judgement.
Essential skills & qualities
- Strong written communication skills, including the ability to respond clearly, respectfully, and consistently in public and private channels.
- Emotional regulation and resilience when exposed to distressing content, survivor stories, or hostile interactions.
- Reliability, discretion, and strong boundaries, including comfort following protocols and escalating without delay.
- Ability to apply trauma-informed language and maintain C.I.C tone-of-voice without offering counselling or personal advice.
- Ability to triage and route people appropriately (donations, volunteering, VFAP, podcast submissions, resources) using approved pathways.
- Attention to detail for logging patterns, risks, and recurring needs, and sharing structured feedback with the team.
Desirable
- Experience engaging across multiple platforms (TikTok, Instagram, X, YouTube, LinkedIn) and adapting tone to platform norms.
- Familiarity with safeguarding principles, escalation workflows, and online safety practices.
Training & support provided
- Safeguarding protocols and escalation pathways.
- Platform-specific engagement standards and tone-of-voice guidance.
- Escalation and reporting systems, including how to log risks and recurring themes.
Main Responsibilities/ Key Duties
- Monitor comments, replies, and DMs across C.I.C platforms to maintain a safe, respectful, and survivor-centred community environment.
- Respond consistently in alignment with C.I.C values and tone, using trauma-informed language and maintaining clear safeguarding boundaries at all times.
- Direct individuals to the correct pathways and resources, including donation routes, volunteer onboarding, VFAP (Violence-Free Action Pathway), podcast submissions, and approved support information.
- Identify and flag safeguarding concerns immediately to the appropriate role, ensuring that potential risk is not held in engagement channels.
- Escalate high-risk messages using agreed protocols, prioritising urgent or concerning disclosures, threats, harassment, or boundary breaches.
- Help maintain comment spaces that are respectful and free from harassment, minimisation, victim-blaming, grooming behaviour, or abusive language, taking action in line with moderation guidance.
- Support healthy engagement by encouraging constructive dialogue, de-escalating where appropriate, and reinforcing community standards without argument or defensiveness.
- Log patterns, risks, and recurring community needs (e.g., common questions, frequent triggers, misinformation themes, safeguarding hotspots) and feed insights back to the team.
- Work closely with Community Moderation & Safety, Safeguarding, and Campaign/Content teams to ensure joined-up responses and consistent public-facing messaging.
- Maintain confidentiality, discretion, and professional boundaries; you do not counsel, diagnose, or provide emotional support — you route safely and responsibly.
This role is not suitable if you:
- Want to debate or argue online
- Struggle with emotional boundaries
- Seek influencer-style engagement
- Want creative control over content
- Are unable to follow safeguarding procedures strictly
This is not about visibility — it is about responsibility.
Important to Be Clear
- This is a volunteer role during the build phase
- It carries real responsibility and trust
- Emotional maturity is essential
- Paid roles will emerge as the organisation becomes financially sustainable
Next Steps
Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:
- A values-led conversation
- A short scenario-based engagement discussion
If you believe that how we respond matters as much as what we post, and that care is an operational function, not a feeling, this role is for you.
A Final Word
Social media is about people, not platforms.
If you know that:
- Trust is built through presence, care, and consistency
- Boundaries are a form of protection, not distance
- Privacy and consent are safeguarding responsibilities
- How we respond matters as much as what we post

Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C. is seeking a Founding Volunteer Marketing Automation & Funnel Specialistto help architect the responsible digital infrastructure that supports our growth.

-
Integrate platforms across website, CRM, email systems, and content tools.
-

-

Job description
Are you driven by purpose over profit, and motivated to use words responsibly to shape public understanding?
Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C. is seeking a Founding Volunteer Creative Copywriter / Campaign Storyteller to help define how our movement speaks — with clarity, courage, and care.
This is not a commercial copywriting role.
It is a truth-led storytelling role.
Our C.I.C. exists to confront and expose the realities of childhood sexual abuse (CSA), centre survivor truth and accountability, support young people into economic empowerment, and build community-owned, open-source systems that serve people rather than capital.
We are:
-
Values-led
-
Anti-capitalist
-
Community-driven
-
Decentralised by design
We are not here to produce promotional content for clicks alone. We are here to communicate truth responsibly — building trust, inviting participation, and ensuring survivor-centred work is represented with dignity and purpose.
This role offers the opportunity to shape how a movement speaks in public spaces.
About the Role
As our Founding Creative Copywriter / Campaign Storyteller, you will craft clear, compelling, and ethically grounded written content to support digital campaigns, fundraising initiatives, and community engagement during our build and early growth phase.
You will not inherit a finished brand voice or messaging system.
You will help shape and define it.
Your work will translate complex and sensitive issues into accessible, responsible communication. You will help move people toward meaningful action — not passive consumption — while ensuring that every piece of content reflects safeguarding commitments and cultural integrity.
This role blends creativity with strategic thinking. You must be comfortable writing across multiple formats, collaborating with campaign teams, and refining messaging based on feedback and insight.
Experience Qualification and Requirements
Essential / Highly Valued Experience
-
Strong writing skills for digital audiences across multiple formats.

Demonstrable experience in copywriting, storytelling, or campaign messaging.

Ability to write about serious and sensitive topics without sensationalism or harm.
-
Understanding of how language influences trust, behaviour, and decision-making.
-
Experience producing written content across platforms.
-
Ability to adapt tone and messaging for different audiences and channels.
-
Willingness to work within trauma-informed, safeguarding, and ethical communication frameworks.
-
Ability to collaborate with designers, analysts, and campaign leads.
-
Confidence receiving and applying feedback.
-
Equivalent professional or voluntary experience accepted.
Desirable / Can Be Developed
-
Experience working in non-profit, CIC, or community-led organisations.
-
Experience supporting fundraising or awareness campaigns.
-
Familiarity with retention, lifecycle, or supporter journey design.
-
Experience working in safeguarding-led environments.
-
Ability to adjust storytelling strategy based on performance data and feedback.
Qualifications
Formal qualifications are not required.
Equivalent practical experience in creative copywriting or campaign storytelling is highly valued.
Main Responsibilities / Key Duties
-
Design, develop, and deliver written and narrative content for digital campaigns during the build and early growth phase.
-
Create campaign copy across platforms, including social media, website pages, and email campaigns.
-
Develop core messaging frameworks for fundraising, awareness, and engagement campaigns.
-
Shape story-led approaches that centre survivor dignity, accuracy, and consent.
-
Produce scripts, story outlines, and narrative structures for:
-
Video content
-
Audio or podcast material
-
Multimedia campaigns
-
-
Adapt messaging for different audiences, platforms, and campaign objectives.
-
Work closely with designers, analysts, and campaign leads to align story with strategy.
-
Ensure all written content aligns with safeguarding policies, ethical standards, and tone guidelines.
-
Maintain consistency of voice and language across digital marketing outputs.
-
Contribute creative ideas for campaigns, themes, and story-driven initiatives.
-
Review and refine copy based on performance insights, feedback, and learning.
-
Support campaign testing and iteration through evidence-informed storytelling.
-
Flag potential safeguarding, reputational, or ethical risks within content.
-
Help define and document the C.I.C.’s written voice and storytelling principles.
-
Support the development of scalable, sustainable content practices not dependent on single individuals.
What You Gain
-
Founding-level experience in creative copywriting and campaign storytelling.
-
Strategic exposure to values-led communications and safeguarding-centred messaging.
-
Leadership insight into managing sensitive information responsibly.
-
Direct contribution to C.I.C. sustainability and long-term impact.
-
Opportunity to help define the voice of a survivor-led movement.
-
Priority consideration for future paid roles as the C.I.C. scales.
This Role Is Not Suitable If You:
-
Prefer low-responsibility volunteer work.
-
Prefer writing purely promotional or commercial content.
-
Are seeking short-term portfolio pieces without commitment.
-
Are uncomfortable engaging with difficult or emotional subject matter.
-
Prefer working without collaboration, feedback, or safeguarding frameworks.
Next Steps
Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:
-
A values-led conversation
-
A practical discussion about creative copywriting and campaign storytelling
If you understand that language carries power — and that storytelling must protect as much as it persuades — we want to hear from you.
