Are you creative and tech-savvy? Are you passionate about sustainability, tackling food waste or supporting local communities?
We are recruiting a Volunteer Social Media Intern to join our food charity for a 6-month placement. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in charity communications while helping us reach more volunteers, supporters and people who benefit from our work. You don’t need previous professional experience - just creativity, initiative, and strong basic computer skills. We’re especially keen to hear from people who are confident using social media and Canva, and enjoy creating engaging content that connects with audiences.
The role is remote, with the potential to come into our Brixton office if you prefer. You’ll work closely with charity staff to promote our upcoming projects, raise awareness of our work, and help rebuild our social media presence as we launch new projects in 2027. We’re looking for a commitment of 16–20 hours per week.
Who we are:
Founded in 2018, Compliments of The House (CoTH) began by collecting surplus cooked food from Brixton Village and surrounding areas, and redistributing it free to people in need. From our local hubs we served our guests, and also ran our ‘Back to Work’ and ‘Care Leaver’ schemes.
During the COVID-19 lockdown, we could not host our guests in our hub. So we launched a temporary grocery delivery scheme supported by local council school buses, which gained recognition from the Prime Minister due to its impact.
Since then, we have found a new venture to channel our commitments to reducing the environmental impact within hospitality whilst nourishing people through food. We are so lucky to have many vibrant and diverse festivals locally and across the UK, which produce a whopping 400 tonnes in food waste every year! We’re taking on the challenge to reduce that waste and use it to nourish those in need.
We’re looking for someone:
-
Experienced using Canva (or confident in transferable skills with similar software)
-
With excellent written communication skills
-
With basic computer skills
-
Who can manage their own work and time
-
Organised and reliable
-
Confident using social media platforms, with a good understanding of maximising engagement and willingness to learn more
-
Passionate about sustainability, reducing food waste or supporting communities
-
Eager to learn and contribute new ideas
Responsibilities:
-
Create engaging and relevant social media content (with guidance) for various platforms using Canva
-
Organise a regular posting schedule
-
Awareness of methods to boost engagement
-
Write interesting captions to promote further engagement
-
Research relevant awareness days and events
-
Monitor engagement and identify opportunities to grow our online community
-
Assist with measuring the success of campaigns using social media analytics
What You'll Gain
-
Hands-on experience managing social media for a growing charity
-
A portfolio of real campaigns and content
-
Training, support and regular feedback
-
A professional reference on successful completion of the placement
-
The opportunity to make a genuine difference by helping reduce food waste and improve access to nutritious food
Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
We are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming organisation. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, identities and lived experiences.
