UNICEF ensures more of the world’s children are vaccinated, educated and protected than any other organisation. We have done more to influence laws and policies to help protect children than anyone else. We get things done. And we’re not going to stop until the world is a safe place for all our children.

This is a great opportunity to join the UK Committee for UNICEF (UNICEF UK) as the Marketing Permissions Lead. The Marketing Permissions Lead will be the senior subject expert for marketing permission’s projects, driving the change to ensure UNICEF UK has polices and processes in place to ensure we continue to appropriately collect and manage marketing permissions, helping to deliver on our commitment to ‘strive to provide the best possible experience for our supporters’.  The role will ensure that UNICEF UK can continue to contact as many supporters as possible, and will have a direct impact on UNICEF UK’s ability to maintain and grow income for children and families in danger. 

The role requires knowledge and experience of the management of supporters within a charity or similar sector and an understanding of the compliance framework within which UNICEF UK operates including UK General Data Protection Regulations and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations.  Experience of developing policy and negotiating and influencing senior colleagues is essential.  Delivering strategically important projects and working to tight deadlines is also an advantage.

Our application process: We use a recruitment platform called "Applied" that anonymises your responses and focuses on your actual skills that are relevant to this role. This benefits you by giving you a greater chance of expressing your skills in this objective selection process.

We anticipate most colleagues will work one or two days a week in the office on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, East London and the rest of the time from home.  We will happily discuss other flexible options to suit your circumstances.

We particularly welcome applications from black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, LGBTQ+ candidates, and disabled candidates, and from men, because we would like to increase the representation of these groups at this level at UNICEF UK. We want to do this because we know greater diversity will lead to even greater results for children.

UNICEF UK promotes equality, diversity and inclusion in our workplace. We make employment decisions by matching business needs with skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation.

We welcome a conversation about your flexible working requirements, personal growth, and promoting a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

The successful candidate will be required to apply for a criminal records check. A criminal record will not necessarily bar you from working with us. This will depend on the nature of the role and the circumstances of your offences.

We only accept online applications as this saves us money, making more funds available for us to help ensure children’s rights.

If you do not hear from us within 14 days of the closing date, please assume your application has been unsuccessful on this occasion. Please note that we only provide feedback to shortlisted candidates.
