Digital Communications Officer

There are about 2,000 LGBTQI people claiming asylum in the UK every year because of their sexuality, gender identity or intersex status. When they come to the UK, they are still not safe. They are often abused in refugee accommodation by other refugees who come from the same or similar countries to the one they are escaping; they become homeless and depressed; and they are rejected by their ethnic community and live in poverty.

Micro Rainbow is the leading UK social enterprise working with LGBTQI people seeking asylum and refugees to enable them to live in safety, with dignity and to rebuild their lives. Our operational teams are based across the UK providing specialist support on: safe housing; navigating the complex asylum system; addressing homelessness and poverty; tackling social isolation and accessing health care, education, and employment.

Micro Rainbow is looking for a dynamic, enthusiastic and outgoing Digital Communications Officer to tailor and support the delivery of key messages to key audiences via a range of platforms and mechanisms. You will work closely with the Communications Manager to support all things digital including social media and website content. You will join a growing team who are passionate about supporting LGBTQI people fleeing persecution.
