Social Media and Email Communications Manager (Maternity Cover)

Are you looking to do things differently? Phew, so are we. For too long, we've looked on social media and, if we're being honest, email communications too, as the nasally, awkward cousin who's great when you play family Trivial Pursuit each Boxing Day but the rest of the time is tolerated just because he's blood (allegedly).

BMS World Mission is looking for a Social Media and Email Communications Manager to join their Communications and Fundraising Department. BMS is a Christian mission organisation founded in 1792, today we are working in around 30 countries over four continents. We are passionate about making Jesus known across the world and transforming the lives of those we serve.

So, we're going to experiment. Definitely for nine months. Who knows, maybe it will work out longer but nine months seems like a good amount of time to grow a social media and email strategy from conception to being out in the wild.

We know enough to know what we don't know (and we've commissioned a detailed social media and email audit report to tell us the rest) and we dream plenty big enough to know there's so much more we could do. We just need to find the right person to be our experimenter-in-chief. Could it be you?

• Location: Didcot, Oxfordshire / Flexible working

We are happy to appoint a candidate who lives too far from Didcot to attend the office regularly, if they are able to be flexible to come to Didcot as required. The cost of travel to BMS Didcot whether on a regular basis or infrequently, would be borne by the employee.

• Salary range: £30,678 to £34,817 per annum
• Closing Date: 9 am, Tuesday, 24 September 2024
