This Role Is Where Trust Is Built—or Lost
At Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C., social media is not a marketing channel. It is often the first place someone tells the truth. The first place a survivor speaks. The first place a young person asks for help, direction, or hope. The Social Media Engagement Officer is the human presence behind our platforms — responding, guiding, holding boundaries, and directing people safely into the right parts of our ecosystem. This is not a growth-hacking role. This is a trust, discernment, and care role.
Purpose of the Role
The Social Media Engagement Officer ensures that every interaction on our digital platforms is:
- Human, not automated
- Trauma-aware, not reactive
- Boundaried, not extractive
- Purpose-led, not performative
You are the bridge between content and community — between attention and action.
Experience Qualification and Requirements
Essential experience
- Experience in community engagement, online community management, moderation, or customer support where tone, safety, and trust matter.
- Experience communicating in sensitive contexts (e.g., advocacy, youth work, frontline/community roles, safeguarding-adjacent environments).
- Experience handling challenging messages, conflict, harassment, or emotionally charged content with professionalism and calm judgement.
Essential skills & qualities
- Strong written communication skills, including the ability to respond clearly, respectfully, and consistently in public and private channels.
- Emotional regulation and resilience when exposed to distressing content, survivor stories, or hostile interactions.
- Reliability, discretion, and strong boundaries, including comfort following protocols and escalating without delay.
- Ability to apply trauma-informed language and maintain C.I.C tone-of-voice without offering counselling or personal advice.
- Ability to triage and route people appropriately (donations, volunteering, VFAP, podcast submissions, resources) using approved pathways.
- Attention to detail for logging patterns, risks, and recurring needs, and sharing structured feedback with the team.
Desirable
- Experience engaging across multiple platforms (TikTok, Instagram, X, YouTube, LinkedIn) and adapting tone to platform norms.
- Familiarity with safeguarding principles, escalation workflows, and online safety practices.
Training & support provided
- Safeguarding protocols and escalation pathways.
- Platform-specific engagement standards and tone-of-voice guidance.
- Escalation and reporting systems, including how to log risks and recurring themes.
Main Responsibilities/ Key Duties
- Monitor comments, replies, and DMs across C.I.C platforms to maintain a safe, respectful, and survivor-centred community environment.
- Respond consistently in alignment with C.I.C values and tone, using trauma-informed language and maintaining clear safeguarding boundaries at all times.
- Direct individuals to the correct pathways and resources, including donation routes, volunteer onboarding, VFAP (Violence-Free Action Pathway), podcast submissions, and approved support information.
- Identify and flag safeguarding concerns immediately to the appropriate role, ensuring that potential risk is not held in engagement channels.
- Escalate high-risk messages using agreed protocols, prioritising urgent or concerning disclosures, threats, harassment, or boundary breaches.
- Help maintain comment spaces that are respectful and free from harassment, minimisation, victim-blaming, grooming behaviour, or abusive language, taking action in line with moderation guidance.
- Support healthy engagement by encouraging constructive dialogue, de-escalating where appropriate, and reinforcing community standards without argument or defensiveness.
- Log patterns, risks, and recurring community needs (e.g., common questions, frequent triggers, misinformation themes, safeguarding hotspots) and feed insights back to the team.
- Work closely with Community Moderation & Safety, Safeguarding, and Campaign/Content teams to ensure joined-up responses and consistent public-facing messaging.
- Maintain confidentiality, discretion, and professional boundaries; you do not counsel, diagnose, or provide emotional support — you route safely and responsibly.
This role is not suitable if you:
- Want to debate or argue online
- Struggle with emotional boundaries
- Seek influencer-style engagement
- Want creative control over content
- Are unable to follow safeguarding procedures strictly
This is not about visibility — it is about responsibility.
Important to Be Clear
- This is a volunteer role during the build phase
- It carries real responsibility and trust
- Emotional maturity is essential
- Paid roles will emerge as the organisation becomes financially sustainable
Next Steps
Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:
- A values-led conversation
- A short scenario-based engagement discussion
If you believe that how we respond matters as much as what we post, and that care is an operational function, not a feeling, this role is for you.
A Final Word
Social media is about people, not platforms.
If you know that:
- Trust is built through presence, care, and consistency
- Boundaries are a form of protection, not distance
- Privacy and consent are safeguarding responsibilities
- How we respond matters as much as what we post
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
