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.

Join the UK’s first purpose-driven travel social enterprise officially incorporated as a CIC. Use your grant writing expertise to secure the funding that empowers underrepresented individuals, builds schools, and protects vulnerable global environments.

About Us
We are innovators, not just traditional philanthropists. We believe that creating self-sustaining funding models is the most effective way to support community agency, which is why we use the power of global travel as a purpose-driven engine for measurable, self-sustaining good.

We operate a unique, dual-impact framework: an inclusive empowerment programme for underrepresented UK individuals, and our flagship global tourism initiative. What makes us radically different is our legal structure. 100% of our organisation's retained surplus is legally asset-locked to our social mission. Every journey facilitated through our network actively funds our 'Four Pillars of Change' directly in developing destinations, such as our flagship 'Made From The Mekong' digital literacy and environmental project.

While our sustainable travel initiatives fund our ongoing social operations, we are seeking a highly strategic Grants & Bid Writer to spearhead our external funding strategy. You will help us scale our impact by securing social enterprise grants, community development funds, and innovation awards.

You will be responsible for:

• Strategic Bid Writing: Translating our complex dual-impact model into compelling, successful grant applications for social enterprise and community impact funders.
   

• Funding the Future: Securing capital to fund our core social mission expansions, including scaling our digital literacy programmes and on-the-ground initiatives.
   

• Partnership Sourcing: Identifying new Trusts, Foundations, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) partners whose values align with our radical transparency and ethical ethos.
   

• Pipeline Management: Tracking application deadlines and maintaining a clear, organized pipeline of funding opportunities.
   

Why Join Us?
We respect that our volunteers are high-level professionals. By joining Yule Travel Group CIC, you gain:

• Strategic Autonomy: You won’t be handed a list of mundane tasks. You will be given a blank canvas to build and execute enterprise-grade funding strategies.
   

• Measurable Global Impact: Your writing doesn’t just raise awareness; it secures the capital that builds schools, funds micro-finance, and supports independent livelihoods.
   

• Innovation-First Experience: We operate with the focus of a modern social enterprise. You will gain hands-on experience utilizing cutting-edge digital tools to scale your output.
   

• Ultimate Flexibility: We operate a 100% remote, asynchronous workspace. You complete your hours on your own schedule, from anywhere in the UK.
   

• A Prestige Portfolio Piece: Coming in at the ground floor of a pioneering social enterprise is a uniquely powerful case study for any professional portfolio.
