About Free to Run

Free to Run’s mission is to advance gender equity globally through running. We are a registered nonprofit/nongovernmental organization that has been operating community-led programs for adolescent girls and young women since 2014. We are known for delivering long-term, youth-led, progressive running, leadership, rights, and health programs directly to girls and young women living in protracted conflict zones. However, the longer-term impact of our work is building enduring social change - decreasing barriers to public participation, increasing women in leadership, and making power structures more equitable and inclusive. Free to Run identifies as an organization working at the intersections of feminism, human rights, development, and humanitarian interventions.

The organization is in a position of significant growth, in terms of our strategy, reach, impact, and operating budget. In 2024, we embarked on a new three-year strategic plan that positions us to reach 50,000 people by 2026. We will meet this goal through our work across three strategic pillars: direct service (EMPOWER), capacity building for local, women-led NGOs (EQUIP), and building a global movement of activists who are passionate about gender equity and running (MOVE).

We are undertaking a major project to develop a new website that will integrate seamlessly with our other digital platforms. As the Digital Content Editor, you will play a key role in this transformation, working closely with our Brand, Marketing and Communications team to implement the website content plan and workflow. You will update and enhance existing website content as part of the migration process while also developing a bold new suite of content. Collaborating with subject matter experts, you will refine and expand our website material, ensuring it is optimised for Google’s EEAT principles.

You will work with the wider team to generate content that is both emotive and factual, aligning with our storytelling strategy to strengthen engagement with new and existing supporters. Your approach will promote immersive storytelling, offering audiences a ‘paddle, swim, dive’ experience—encouraging deeper engagement while also rewarding surface-level exploration.

The ideal candidate will have excellent copywriting skills, with the ability to write clearly, concisely and compellingly for a variety of audiences. You will be proficient in using content management systems (CMS) such as Drupal and have a strong understanding of user experience and website design processes, including the ability to design effective user journeys.

At Brooke, we celebrate diversity and the creative new ideas it brings. We actively encourage applications from all backgrounds, in particular global majority candidates, candidates from a social mobility background, disabled and neuro-diverse candidates, and candidates under 25 as these groups are currently under-represented at Brooke. 

We are aware that studies have shown that women and global majority candidates are less likely to apply for a role if they feel they do not meet the full criteria of the job description. If you feel you meet the majority of the criteria, we would love to hear from you. 

We offer a variety of flexible working options to best support our staff and to ensure our working practices are as inclusive as possible.
