Moshun.Earth

We quantify companies' marine risk, mitigate exposure, and finance profitable ocean restoration.​

Moshun.Earth is trying to solve a problem that doesn't really have a category yet: how do we make ocean restoration investable at scale?

The challenge is that we're not just building a product, but also the language, the narrative, and the market around it. There is no playbook, no proven messaging, no obvious growth strategy, and no "copy what the competition is doing." Which means we're very much figuring it out in real time, and it's as exciting as it is messy (nervous laugh from our CEO).

If you're someone who needs detailed instructions, this role probably isn't for you (please do not apply). However, if you're someone who sees an opportunity, runs with it, tests ideas, learns quickly and comes back saying "I tried this and here's what happened," keep reading :

The role

We're looking for a writer, not a content machine. A storyteller who gets excited by taking complicated ideas and making them feel human.

At Moshun, we spend a lot of time talking about marine biodiversity finance, ecosystem valuation, impact investing and ocean restoration. Most people's eyes glaze over after three words. Your job is to make sure they don't.

You'll help us build a voice that is intelligent without being academic, ambitious without being corporate, and optimistic without becoming fluffy.

What you'll own:

• LinkedIn content
• Newsletters
• Website copy
• Thought leadership articles
• Case studies
• Founder storytelling
• Interviewing team members and turning conversations into content

What we're looking for:

More than a CV, we're looking for evidence of a track record: a story you brought to life and resonated in places you never knew were possible, a community who grew around the voice you created, influential individuals who picked up on your content and amplified it because they felt seen through it. We will welcome someone who notices stories everywhere, asks good questions, who can sit through a technical discussion and leave with a compelling headline. You don't need to know everything about oceans, but to be curious enough to learn and confident enough to challenge the obvious.

What success looks like:

• People who know nothing about ocean regeneration suddenly care.
• Investors understand the opportunity.
• Project developers understand the value and buy our product
• Our audience starts repeating our ideas because they finally make sense.

Bonus points if you've ever rewritten something and thought: "There has to be a better way to say this." That's exactly the mindset we're after.

Why join?

Because you'll help shape the narrative of an emerging industry while doing good for the ocean and the communities who depend on it. And because if we succeed, you'll be able to say you were there when it was still just an idea with a handful of people stubborn enough to believe it could work. We're also a fun bunch of people, and that's probably our biggest argument.

Minimum Hours per Week:

7-9 hours per week

Duration:

6+ months

Key Benefits

● Gain valuable experience in communications and marketing, plus charity team leadership.

● Make a meaningful impact on the fight to support the CRPS community.

Howami Ltd

We help young menstruators improve mental health and menstrual literacy through embodied game-based app experiences.​

We’re Howami, a bold, empathetic UK-based startup on a mission to transform how young people and their carers navigate menstrual and emotional health. We are soon to launch Million Moons, a global storytelling and fundraising initiative that will shift how the world talks about and understands menstrual health and youth emotional and mental wellbeing.
 
If you are someone who: 
Believes young people deserve better?
Feels called to build something bold, compassionate, and culturally transformative?
Cares deeply about young people, emotions, cycles, and the hidden work of growing up?
Thrives at the intersection of creativity, activism, and social impact?
If yes, you might be the teammate we’re looking for!

The role

We are looking for an in-house data-driven yet deeply creative Digital Marketing Specialist to collaborate with our PR and Marketing Partners and drive our paid social strategy and content ecosystem. You will build the tracking that tells us what’s working, produce authentic user-generated content that earns attention honestly, and make sure every message, from a three-second hook to a landing-page headline, carries the Million Moons voice with care. You will be the bridge between the numbers and the narrative.

What you’ll do in collaboration with our PR and Marketing Partners:

Technical tracking & analytics

1. Implement and configure the Meta Pixel and Conversions API via Google Tag Manager for clean, reliable tracking and attribution.
2. Set up, test, and troubleshoot custom conversion events.
3. Audit tracking health regularly, resolve data discrepancies, and sharpen ad targeting.

UGC content creation & creative direction

1. Ideate, script, and produce compelling user-generated content (UGC) for Meta (Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok) campaigns and organic social.
2. Manage the content process end to end: casting creators and storytellers, directing shoots, and editing final assets.
3. Watch for creative fatigue and iterate on top-performing UGC formats (testimonials, behind-the-scenes, explainers) to grow reach and engagement, always keeping dignity and consent at the centre.

Key messaging & strategy

1. Lead the development of localized, high-performing messaging frameworks for the European and, eventually, the Global market.
2. Hold the line on brand voice and tone across every touchpoint, from ad copy to landing pages.
3. Translate broad goals into clear, persuasive copy tailored to different audience personas — without ever losing the warmth that makes people stay.

What you’ll bring

This list describes the shape of the role, not a checklist you must tick perfectly. If you’re early in your career but learn fast and care deeply, we want to hear from you.

1. Hands-on curiosity with the tools. Around 1–2 years of experience or equivalent practice through internships, freelance work, personal projects, or study with Google Tag Manager, Meta Ads Manager, and TikTok. If you’ve been teaching yourself, that counts.
2. A creative eye. Some examples of UGC or content you’ve created or directed. A polished agency portfolio is welcome, but so is a TikTok you grew from scratch or a campaign you ran for a cause or side project. We care about the thinking behind it.
3. A way with words. A feel for copywriting and an instinct for what an audience actually needs to hear. You need a good ear and the willingness to revise.
4. An analytical mindset. Comfort with (or genuine eagerness to learn) Google Analytics, and a habit of letting data guide the next decision.
5. Heart. A genuine connection to our mission. You don’t have to share every story, but you do have to care about the people telling them. This matters to us as much as any technical skill.

What we offer

This is 4-6 month volunteer position, beginning in June, with the chance to shape a marketing function from the ground up, working on a mission that matters. You’ll have real ownership while working with our professional PR and Marketing Partners and be part of a team that values both rigour and kindness.

How to apply

Please apply through this platform and include your CV, a short note on why Million Moons speaks to you, and examples of UGC or campaigns you’re proud of.

MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS VOLUNTEER WANTED — HELP IGNITE A MOVEMENT FOR MEN’S MENTAL WELLBEING

Every movement begins with a message. Every message needs a voice. And right now, MINDSET Charity is searching for ours.

We are at the very beginning of an extraordinary journey — building a prevention‑focused, non‑clinical charity dedicated to supporting men on their mental wellbeing and self‑improvement journey. Through interactive, action‑based programmes, we give men the tools, skills and approaches they need to navigate life with strength, clarity and resilience.

But to create real change, people need to know we exist. They need to feel our energy. They need to hear our mission. And that’s where you come in.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

As our Marketing & Communications Volunteer, you won’t just be “promoting a charity” — you’ll be helping to spark a national conversation about men’s mental wellbeing. You’ll be the heartbeat behind our public voice, shaping how the world sees us, understands us and connects with our mission.

You will help us:

• Build awareness and excitement around MINDSET Charity.
