Job description

Campaigns Officer – £29,500 per year – Full‑time, 35 hrs per week – Permanent contract – Based in London / home and flexible working

Our client empowers people with the skills they need to succeed in life. Together, they're helping people change their stories. You could join them as a Campaigns Officer to deliver local behaviour change campaigns for children and families.

What you’ll be doing

Our client is recruiting a marketing and communications professional to deliver their local behaviour change campaigns in target areas across the UK to improve vital reading and writing skills. You will work as part of the campaigns team, using a range of channels to spread key messages to children and families, and the services that support them.

You will also work closely with the communities team and Hub Managers in local areas, and will build relationships with local partners, including the media. You will manage local marketing channels, campaign activities and events, as well as supporting activity across the marketing and communications team and preparing copy for newsletters, websites and social media.

You will be contracted to our client’s office in London, but this role is suitable for home and flexible working, with the majority of your work carried out from home if you would prefer. However, you will need to be available to travel to London for staff and team days, as well as to support project delivery and partnerships. This could be around a day a week on average, although at times it will be a lot less, and unfortunately, our client is unable to cover travel costs for this.

What our client is looking for

You will be a marketing/communications professional, experienced in planning, implementing and evaluating campaigns to change behaviours. You will be able to adapt key messages for a range of audiences, including press and social media, and have experience creating effective content for physical and digital delivery. You will be a strong team player able to represent your area of expertise across multi‑disciplinary projects.

Why our client’s work is so vital

Reading and writing change everything. They give you the tools to get the most out of life, and the power to shape your future. They’re the key to knowledge, confidence and inspiration. They’re better results at school, and better jobs. If children grow up without the tools to communicate, without books to read or opportunities to write, it’s harder to get where you want to go.

Our client helps people overcome these challenges and change their life chances through the power of words – reading, writing, speaking and listening. From first words, through school days, to training, jobs and beyond.

• They work collaboratively in local communities, focusing their work in areas of the UK that are facing the biggest challenges.
• They support schools, developing the most effective tools and techniques and providing resources and programmes to engage and inspire children.
• They campaign to make reading and writing a priority for politicians and decision‑makers.
• They support vulnerable adults, people in the criminal justice system and young offenders’ institutions to build their skills.

What our client offers you

Our client’s team are passionate about their mission, and have a strong and positive working culture, based on shared values and respect. They offer a range of flexible working options and promote a workplace where you can be yourself and contribute to their success, whoever you are.

As well as a competitive salary, they offer benefits including a generous leave allowance totalling 39 days (including bank holidays and office closure between Christmas and New Year), pension contributions of 8% of annual salary, a cycle to work scheme, employee assistance programme and other health and wellbeing benefits.

Application details

Our client’s people are their most important asset, and they value and respect diversity in all its forms (seen and unseen). They particularly welcome applications from those from Black and Asian backgrounds, as well as candidates with disabilities and from the communities in which they work. They would like to increase representation of these groups among their staff as they know greater diversity will lead to an even greater impact for their work.
