• Analyse donor behaviour, giving patterns, and campaign results to provide actionable recommendations for improving donor experience and engagement.
• Identify opportunities to strengthen relationships with donors and sponsors, including stewardship, recognition, and follow-up communications.
• Maintain and improve data management systems, processes, and documentation to support efficient operations and reporting.
• Liaise with fundraising, membership, and digital teams to ensure consistency and accuracy of donor data across platforms.
• Flag data quality issues or system gaps and recommend solutions to leadership.
• Contribute to planning for scaling donor management systems as the CIC grows.
• Support the development of dashboards, analytics tools, or visualisations to improve understanding and accessibility of donor data.

What difference will you make?

Joining Maa Shanti’s Board is an opportunity to be part of a values-led, survivor-centred organisation making a real difference in the lives of women and children affected by domestic abuse. As a trustee, you will help shape the future of a trusted, community-rooted charity at a time of growth and increasing need. You’ll work alongside a thoughtful, supportive Board and leadership team, contributing your perspective, skills and lived experience to ensure survivors’ voices remain at the heart of everything we do.

This Role Is the Backbone of the Content Ecosystem
Content creation without structure becomes chaos. Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C. is intentionally recruiting hundreds of content creators. That level of scale requires rigorous systems to ensure nothing is lost, duplicated, misused, or unsafe. The Content Librarian / Digital Asset Manager is the role that turns volume into value. This is not a passive admin role. This is infrastructure-building.

Purpose of the Role
The Content Librarian ensures that every piece of content created across the organisation is:

• Logged
• Tagged
• Categorised
• Approved
• Stored
• Accessible
• Reusable

This role protects:
Brand integrity

• Survivor dignity
• Safeguarding compliance
• Operational efficiency

Without this role, scale fails.

Experience Qualification and Requirements

Essential:

• Experience in digital asset management, content operations, knowledge management, archiving, or media library administration.
• Experience creating and maintaining structured systems (folders, naming rules, tags, metadata) at scale.
• Experience logging and tracking assets accurately, with strong attention to detail and consistency.
• Experience working across teams (creative, campaigns, operations, safeguarding) to coordinate content flow and accountability.
• Highly organised approach with strong file hygiene, documentation discipline, and ability to maintain standards consistently.
• Strong attention to detail, including version control, permissions, approval status tracking, and prevention of misuse.
• Ability to think in systems: designing processes that make content searchable, reusable, and scalable.
• Strong communication skills for clarifying requirements, flagging risks, and keeping stakeholders aligned.
• Ability to work independently, manage priorities, and maintain reliability in a high-volume environment.

Desirable experience 

• Experience supporting creative teams with admin/ops or project coordination.
• Familiarity with content governance: approvals, safeguarding clearance markers, and usage rights tracking.
• Experience building content calendars or supporting distribution workflows.

Helpful tools (welcomed, not required)

• Google Drive, SharePoint, Notion, Airtable, or similar documentation / content systems.
• DAM platforms or structured media library tools.
• Familiarity with file naming conventions and metadata frameworks.

Training & qualifications

• Formal qualifications are not required.
• Qualifications in library studies, information management, or organisational management are desirable.

Main Responsibilities/ Key Duties

• Build and maintain a central digital content library that supports scale, reuse, and consistent access across the CIC.
• Create and manage structured systems for content organisation, including naming conventions, folder structures, tagging rules, and metadata standards.
• Log and catalogue all incoming content from content creators, podcast teams, campaign teams, and ambassadors, ensuring every asset is captured and traceable.
• Track key content status fields, including approval status, usage rights/permissions, platform suitability, and safeguarding clearance.
• Ensure content is easy to find and easy to reuse by maintaining accurate tags, searchable metadata, clear versions, and consistent file hygiene.
• Manage version control and “single source of truth” practices, preventing confusion, loss of quality, duplicated assets, or incorrect public release.
• Coordinate with the Social Media Director, Safeguarding Officer, Campaign Managers, and Automation & Systems teams to align library structure with workflows and publishing needs.
• Flag risks, gaps, duplication, or misuse (e.g., missing consent, unclear rights, unapproved assets, outdated versions, incorrect tagging) and route issues to the right owners.
• Support content distribution readiness by ensuring assets are stored in the correct location, correctly named, correctly tagged, and marked for approved use.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by refining systems, templates, and guidance as volume increases and the C.I.C scales.

This role is not suitable if you:

• Dislike structure or admin
• Prefer fast-paced creative chaos
• Struggle with confidentiality
• Are uncomfortable working with sensitive content
• Need immediate paid work

Important to Be Clear

This is:

• A volunteer role within a Community Interest Company
• Unpaid during the build phase
• A critical infrastructure role

Paid opportunities will be introduced as the organisation becomes financially sustainable.

Next Steps

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:

• A systems-focused discussion
• A values and safeguarding conversation

If you are someone who understands that order creates safety, systems create scale, and structure creates longevity, this role is for you.

A Final Word
Content systems are about people, not files.

If you know that:
Order protects dignity and safety
Structure is a safeguarding issue
Consistency keeps systems trustworthy
