Supporter experience
We work at the frontline of charity communications, helping organisations engage their audiences, protect their communities and respond to sensitive issues in real time.
About the role
We’re looking for experienced social media and communications professionals to join our freelance moderation team.
Our moderators support a range of charity partners, working across always-on activity as well as high-profile campaigns and appeals. You’ll act as the voice of each organisation — engaging with supporters, answering queries, and ensuring conversations are managed safely and effectively.
This role is well suited as a flexible, additional source of income. Most of our moderators are freelancers or consultants working alongside other roles.
Working pattern
Moderation takes place between 9am and 9pm, Monday to Sunday.
Rather than working in one continuous block, you’ll complete your hours in short check-ins across the day to maintain coverage and meet response time targets.
Each account is allocated a set number of ‘active moderation hours’ per day (e.g. 2-3 hours), which are spread across multiple sessions.
For example, 3 hours may be split into 5-6 check-ins throughout the day.
You must be able to:
Start moderation from 9am (or earlier)
Monitor activity throughout the day
Complete a final check before 9pm
Adhere to our sub-3-hour response time
Please note: In your first month, you will typically start on fewer accounts and hours (approx. 3 per day) while you get up to speed. Hours usually increase from month two onwards.
Key Responsibilities
Act as the voice of our charity partners, consistently applying their tone of voice and brand guidelines
Respond to comments, messages and queries in a timely, accurate and empathetic way
Maintain a response time of under three hours
Identify, manage and de-escalate negative or inappropriate content
Hide or remove content in line with moderation policies
Identify and escalate safeguarding concerns appropriately
Signpost users to relevant support services where needed
Encourage positive engagement and supporter action, including donations where appropriate
Work across a range of moderation tools e.g. Sprout Social, Meta Business Suite, Agorapulse, Brandwatch
Manage your workload independently while following clear processes and guidance
What We’re Looking For
Essential
Minimum 3 years’ professional communications experience, working in-house for a charity or non-profit
Proven experience moderating social media channels
Excellent written communication skills, with strong attention to detail
Ability to work independently and manage time effectively across multiple check-ins
Confidence in making judgement calls using guidance rather than scripts
Understanding of fundraising and how charities engage supporters
Ability to remain calm and professional in high-volume or sensitive situations
Availability to work 3-6 days per week, including at least one weekend day
Flexibility to adapt quickly if issues arise
Desirable
Experience using moderation and social media management tools e.g. Sprout Social, Meta, Agorapulse, Brandwatch
What our moderators say:
“I love the flexibility of the role. The team are great and very supportive, but the flexibility allows you to still do things whilst working.” - Megan
“Working with Social AF has been so rewarding, I’ve been able to work with some amazing national charity partners. The team are so friendly and the flexibility has been really beneficial for my work-life balance.” - Sarah
Please note that all applications that are submitted via CharityJob and meet our essential criteria will be considered once the advert has closed.
Before applying, please ensure you have read the full job description, including the working pattern and response time expectations.
To apply, please submit your CV and a short covering statement answering the following:
- Share an example of how you’ve worked in house for a charity to moderate their social media channels and how you did so successfully. Please include the names of any moderation platforms and tools you’ve used (300 words max)
