• Guide, inspire and equip colleagues to represent our brand through their everyday fundraising, media, campaigning and advocacy activities.
• Optimise and develop strategies and frameworks which advance the impact of brand within Save the Children UK.

• To have the best (and happiest) employees, we focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing – both in and outside of work.

We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
