At The Lullaby Trust our vision is clear: a world where no baby dies suddenly or unexpectedly, and every grieving family gets the support they need. We exist to keep babies safe and support bereaved families. 

We give families a safer start to life and create a supportive space for anyone whose baby or infant has died suddenly or unexpectedly. We empower families and health professionals with trusted advice on keeping babies safe, backed by research, and provide grieving families with bereavement support, side-by-side.

Since 1991 we have reduced the rate of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome by 82% and saved the lives of over 32,000 babies. But our work is not over, as three babies still die suddenly and unexpectedly a week.

As the Digital Marketing Manager, you will be responsible for the digital marketing strategy and all marketing activity for The Lullaby Trust. The post holder will lead a team to deliver all digital marketing activity and focus on continually developing our digital marketing and digital brand presence to achieve our organisational objectives.

It is a key time to be joining The Lullaby Trust as we develop our new brand positioning, new website and creative direction, to help us reach more families and supporters than ever.

We are a friendly, flexible employer and want to create a diverse and inclusive work environment for everyone.

”We sort out problems together, for good”

Last year we helped over 24,000 people resolve over 47,000 problems - with your help, we can make an even greater impact in the years ahead.  Join us to work alongside our Head of Services, and help ensure our services are ready to meet the growing needs of our communities.

Citizens Advice Southwark has a track-record of delivering high-quality services from its two main offices in the borough and outreach locations across Southwark and South East London. We sort out problems together, for good, by providing free, independent, confidential and impartial advice across all areas of social welfare law, and through using the experience of our clients to bring about positive change through research and campaigns.

As a result, Southwark Council is funding CAS to run a dedicated private renters’ support organisation to help support and promote the interests of private renters in the borough, and to undertake a range of activities to support and empower private tenants, particularly the most disadvantaged. 

To deliver the project we are looking for an experienced Project Coordinator to provide overall coordination of the project and to lead on developing a proposal and business case for a permanent independent Renters’ Support Organisation in Southwark.

• Experience of coordinating and delivering a partnership project including monitoring progress against objectives
• Experience of establishing and developing successful partnerships with other agencies and joint working
• An understanding of the challenges facing private renters and the private rented sector, and the rights available to them
• Effective written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to write effective reports and present information at meetings
• Ability to work closely with and develop relationships with a wide range of stakeholders across organisations and sectors
• Ability to commit to and work within the aims and principles of Citizens Advice Southwark
