About CharityJob
The CharityJob story began at the turn of the millennium, when our founding directors, Raya and Steve (who between them have 40 years’ experience in the charity sector), realised how difficult it was for charities to recruit the best people.
So CharityJob was born with a single mission – offering charities across the UK a specialist job board to help them connect with the very best the sector has to offer.
Today, 20 years on, we’re so much more than just a job board. We’re a team of 34 people: passionate about our sector, and work hard to make a difference. So far, we’ve helped over 20,000 charities and not-for-profits to find their best people.
But we’ve only just started. Our mission is to help even more people to take their first steps into the sector. And we’re working hard to bring the sector together – building a strong community for each and every one of us, through CharityConnect.
True to our original vision of giving back to the sector, we donate 10% of our profits to charities and not-for-profits. And that’s why we’re proud to be the charity sector’s Champion. Better people. Better charities. Better world.

More about Material Focus
Having launched in April 2020, with a brand new website, we are now at a stage where we need a digital manager to come and manage and develop this further. Our website digital tools are effectively our ‘product’ and are critical to the success of our campaign. They make it easier for people to know what, how and where to reuse and recycle their old electricals. The digital project manager will lead the development and management of the website, functionality, SEO, SEM, as part of a small, newly formed, and growing committed team.
You will be given the chance to come in and have an immediate impact on a well-funded non-profit organisation, with an important mission.
And you’ll be able to establish a good work life balance with somewhat flexible hours and the ability to work from home.
Background
Managing electrical waste is one of the biggest challenges of our time - it is the fastest growing waste stream in the world - and in the UK. As technology evolves at such a fast pace, older electrical and electronic items are often made redundant. Most of us don’t know what to do with our old electricals and end up either binning or hoarding them. The reality is that everything with a plug, a cable or a battery can be recycled and turned into anything from children’s playgrounds to life saving equipment. Reusing and recycling unwanted electricals helps save lives, save the environment and stops those precious resources from being lost forever.
The Organisation
We are a busy start-up, having been set up to get the nation reusing and recycling their unwanted electricals - and save precious resources from being lost forever.
We are a core team of 6, working with a network of trusted freelancers and agencies to get the job done.
The campaign
We have launched the Recycle Your Electricals campaign to motivate and make it easy for people to reuse and repair their unwanted electricals. This is a low interest issue that doesn’t even occur to most people - we throw away small electricals without even thinking about it, or perhaps we consider it but we’re too busy, and what would we do with it anyway? We need to stop people in their tracks, and give them a reason to think about it, talk about it, and do the right thing. Our website has been designed as an inspiring knowledge hub with all the tools, links and resources people need to donate, repair and recycle their unwanted electricals.

You will quickly develop an understanding for our audiences that will allow appropriate creation and curation of our different newsletters, furthering engagement. You will have good technical knowledge about digital communications and above all a flair and creativity for thinking about how digital tools can be used to promote our data-driven research and analysis. You will have great people skills, which will allow you to work constructively within our team to summarise key messages from our data work and translate these into the best digital outputs, as well as working with external partners on mutually beneficial communications work. You will be able to meet deadlines, work under pressure and juggle multiple priorities without compromising your keen attention to detail and high level of accuracy. Ideally, you will have come from the healthcare or pharmaceutical industries, or a sector where you have gained experience of delivering messages related to improving people’s health.
Your most important attributes will be your readiness and ability to learn, your 'can do’ mindset coupled with a rigour of thinking and attention to details. Above all, you need to believe in our mission and want to join us to make a difference: our small team makes a big difference in IBD across the UK and this needs to be more than ‘just a job’ for you.
