About Roots Academy. 

Roots Academy’s Vision.

A generation of young Muslims who embody and promote a God-centred way of life.

• Interest in impact measurement or education sector work

What we have to offer

• Be part of a team of 100+ dedicated volunteers across the UK, Ireland, Canada, US, UAE and Australia.

What difference will you make?
The Social Media Lead plays a strategic and safeguarding-critical role in advancing Emerge Worldwide’s mission to prevent grooming, sexual exploitation and sex trafficking.

This role is not simply about posting content. It is about shaping narrative, increasing prevention, strengthening partnerships and ensuring that women and girls encounter accurate, trauma-informed information in digital spaces.

Through a clear digital strategy and consistent messaging, the Social Media Lead strengthens Emerge Worldwide’s credibility and national voice. A strong online presence builds trust with survivors, professionals, schools, corporates and policymakers — opening doors for training, partnerships and funding that directly support prevention and empowerment initiatives.

Consistent, high-quality posting has preventative impact. Educational content about red flags, online grooming, coercive control and intersectional vulnerabilities can help young people recognise harmful behaviour earlier. Parents, carers and teachers may identify warning signs sooner. Increased awareness can interrupt exploitation before it escalates.

Collaboration with the Communications Department ensures language is trauma-informed and safeguarding-aware. Sensitive issues are handled ethically, reducing the risk of re-traumatisation and creating a digital environment where survivors feel seen, respected and safe.

Cross-department collaboration ensures campaigns, policy work, education programmes and fundraising initiatives are amplified effectively. This leads to increased attendance at training, stronger campaign mobilisation, greater public engagement and enhanced funding — all of which contribute to tangible protection and support for vulnerable girls and young women.

By analysing performance data, the Social Media Lead helps Emerge Worldwide reach high-risk demographics more effectively. Data-informed decisions improve targeting, engagement and resource allocation, ensuring messaging reaches those most vulnerable.

In summary, the outcomes of this role contribute directly to early identification, public education, cultural awareness and increased access to prevention services. The Social Media Lead helps transform awareness into action — strengthening Emerge Worldwide’s impact in advocating for women and girls against grooming, sexual exploitation and sex trafficking.

General responsibilities (common to all Trustees)

In carrying out the collective responsibilities of the Board, individual Trustees should:

Specific to these jobs: 

A trustee from the global majority

We need a Trustee from the global majority who will be able to provide us with insight and perspectives that are not fully represented at our Board meetings.  We do have a diverse Board, but we are conscious that our membership, particularly in the young adults group, draws heavily from the global majority.  We think we would benefit from another Trustee from this background.  We are passionate about having diverse voices in our leadership because it helps us make better decisions. We also think we need to be sure we are hearing from people who have similar experiences to those we work with.

This Trustee position is open to those with a range of skills or specialisms, including but not limited to the provision of frontline services (for example safeguarding, working with young people, working with or knowledge of the challenges faced by LGBT+ refugees), marketing and fundraising (for example working in PR, having a knowledge of fundraising or events management) or charity management (for example financial skills - maybe gained outside the charity sector, governance or risk management).

We don’t need you to have been a Trustee before – we are committed to providing the training and support for anyone where this is their first Trustee role. Many of our current Trustees took this on as their first role and would now be regarded as experienced Trustees with a good knowledge of what is required to make the role a success..

Person Specification

Essential 

● Lived experience of LGBT+ young people and the LGBT+ community. 

● Lived experience of being from the global majority

● Commitment to Mosaic’s vision and mission.

● Understanding of the legal responsibilities and liabilities of a Trustee; or a willingness to get that understanding very early in the role 

● Good communication skills and creative thinking 

● Sound, independent judgment and strategic vision 

● A willingness to speak their mind persuasively but diplomatically

● Confidence to take decisions for the good of the organisation

● Willingness to devote the necessary time and effort to the duties of a Trustee 

Desirable

● Experience managing a team

A Trustee with an interest in management of risk

We need a Trustee with an interest in the management of risk. For us that means keeping the risk register (we already have one, and its up to date and in good shape), and working with the chairs of the committees to ensure that their committee reviews the risks that they own (our experience is that they need a bit of a push to do it, but when they do it, it is done well).  It also means saying “have we considered the risks here” when we discuss things at Board and making sure we keep that as a focus.

You don’t actually need to have done this before because it is relatively easy to understand and the role is keeping the organisation focused on risk rather than actually doing the risk management yourself.

We have a robust risk register and in the last 12 months we have spent half a day thinking specifically about our risk posture. We are losing the trustee who led this area and we need to replace them. If you have experience in governance of risk that would be great, but if you are simply interested in working with us and happy to pick up this area that is fine too.  You don’t have to have been a trustee before, but if you have been that would be good.

Responsibilities specific to this role

● To work with the members of the Finance, Risk and Governance committee to maintain a register of the critical risks that the Charity faces.

● To work with the chairs of the Board Committees to ensure that the committees are regularly assessing their risks, and regularly taking action to mitigate those risks

● To be responsible for the keeping the risk register up to date

Person Specification

Essential 

● Lived experience of LGBT+ young people and the LGBT+ community. 

● Knowledge of risk, or willingness to learn, in relation to a charity for young persons and vulnerable adults.

● Commitment to Mosaic’s vision and mission.

● Understanding of the legal responsibilities and liabilities of a Trustee; or a willingness to get that understanding very early in the role 

● Good communication skills and creative thinking 

● Sound, independent judgment and strategic vision 

● An ability to work with others

● A willingness to speak their mind persuasively but diplomatically

● Confidence to take decisions for the good of the organisation

● Willingness to devote the necessary time and effort to the duties of a Trustee 

Desirable

● Have managed a team of people

● Have an interest in corporate governance

A Trustee with skills in marketing, communications or PR

We need a Trustee with experience in marketing to join our Board and also our Marketing and Fundraising committee.  We have a part time staff member who creates our material and posts it.  We need ideas on how we might do better, reaching out to those who would benefit from what we do. You may have ideas about how we can improve our messaging, or where we could start to advertise and talk about what we do. We don’t need specific marketing skills but rather someone who is familiar with the way marketing works, who understands messaging and who has ideas on what we could do better.  If you are familiar with new trends and technologies we could be making better use of that would be great.

Responsibilities specific to this role

● To work with the members of the Marketing and Fundraising committee to improve awareness of what Mosaic does among our target audiences.

3. Operational Planning & Budgeting

• Operationalizing Strategy: Convert broad annual plans into detailed monthly/weekly execution plans for field teams.
• Technical Budgeting: Collaborate with the Director to align program activities with cost-effective budgets, ensuring financial projections match project logic.
• Compliance Oversight: Ensure all drafted programs adhere to local statutory requirements and specific donor compliance mandates.

4. Strategic Support & Coordination

• Team Technical Lead: Act as a resource for Project Officers and volunteers, providing them with the "paperwork" and structures they need to succeed in the field.
• Stakeholder Synthesis: Prepare presentation decks and briefing papers for the Director to use in high-level stakeholder and donor meetings.

Required Qualifications & Specialty Skills

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Project Management, Development Studies, Statistics, Social Sciences, or a related field.
