Strategic Communications and Content
Permanent
Full-time
Plan International UK is a global children’s charity striving for an equal world. One where every child can reach their full potential and every girl can choose her own future.
We bring people together to protect children’s rights and keep girls safe, in school and in control of their bodies – even when disaster strikes. And we won’t stop until we are all equal.
We’re looking for a talented Stories and Content Officer to help tell the story of our life-changing work – and the people at the heart of it.
This is an exciting opportunity for a confident storyteller with experience of working in a global setting to deliver authentic stories.
In this role you will be our stories expert, building strong relationships to proactively source, commission and produce powerful case studies – travelling where appropriate and interviewing inspiring young people. You will champion ethical storytelling and ensure our communications are in line with our safeguarding principles, antiracism principles, brand guidelines and best practice. You will play an active role as part of the Brand and Content team in planning and shaping the content we produce to support our marketing, fundraising and influencing goals – taking specific responsibility for our UK asset management system.
This role sits within the Strategic Communications and Content Unit and is part of the Influencing and External Affairs Directorate. The unit is a dynamic and integrated team that drives the organisation's mission through effective communication and compelling content creation. It also works closely with the Fundraising and Supporter Engagement Directorate.
To be our successful candidate, you will have a good nose for a story and significant experience of delivering powerful case studies to support multiple organisational campaigns or goals – and know how to do so ethically and safely. You will be proactive and creative, with the ability to build excellent collaborative relationships to deliver what’s needed. And you will be able to demonstrate you’re a true team player and willing to contribute to the operation of a small and creative content team.

The deadline for applications is 23:59 on 1 December 2024
Interviews will take place on 9 - 11 December 2024
