Digital Communications & Content Manager

Can you help young athletes beat their personal best? 

Then come and join a small team of doers, who have banned red tape, silos, politics and “computer says no” scenarios to work for a really uplifting cause.  At SportsAid we exist to encourage, enable and empower the next generation of athletes to achieve their ambitions in sport and life. For decades, we have been side by side with Britain’s greatest emerging sporting talent, from Mo Farah to Jessica Ennis-Hill to Ade Adepitan, Paula Radcliffe and so many others to give them vital support before they became Olympian and Paralympian stars. 

We are looking to appoint a Digital Communications & Content Manager to play a pivotal role in reshaping the way we communicate and we engage young athletes and SportsAid’s supporters. You will develop a communications plan, and develop and deliver creative content to interest, engage and inspire and galvanise support for SportsAid.
