Digital fundraising jobs

From Amnesty International to Greenpeace UK, progressive organisations are using digital mobilisation to activate hundreds of thousands of campaigners and raise millions of pounds online. Forward Action believes that a digital mobilisation model - where organisations use digital channels to drive hundreds of thousands of supporters to take advocacy, fundraising and volunteering actions - can revolutionise campaigning and fundraising in the NGO sector. We help progressive organisations build digital mobilisation programmes and, as a Senior Digital Strategist, you will work with organisations to help them use a digital mobilisation model to drive real-world change.

You will be at the heart of our digital campaigns and fundraising work, managing projects and planning impactful strategies to help our progressive partners hit their goals. You’ll even have the opportunity to work on proposals and pitches for new projects, steering how we adapt to client briefs and our bigger picture organisational strategy. If you’re passionate about making the world a better place, have 4+ years in digital marketing, are well organised with good attention to detail and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment, this job is for you.

This is a fixed-term maternity cover contract, expected to last up to 12 months, with the freedom to work both in our London office and remotely anywhere in the UK. You also have the opportunity to work abroad for up to 3 months in the year, as long as you can be online for the required core hours outlined below. Forward Action works a four day week, with all team members not working on Friday. 

Forward Action is employee-owned, meaning that all employees co-own the organisation, taking responsibility for making our organisation as great as it can be, and share a portion of the profits each year. This role would receive a pro-rata share of the employee bonus for the length of employment. 

We are committed to making sure Forward Action is an inclusive, diverse and anti-oppressive organisation. We especially encourage people from the global majority, or from underserved communities on the basis of race, ethnicity, class, educational background, gender identity, sexuality, disability and age to apply. We know it’s not possible for any applicant to have all of the skills outlined below. Don’t worry, we would still love to see an application from you if you hit most of the criteria!
