Do you believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn to read and develop numeracy skills? Can you help us spread the word to others, and get them on board too?

We’re looking for an experienced communications and marketing professional to help us spread the word about the levels of low literacy and numeracy experienced by people across the UK. Currently, over 70% of people in prisons either can’t read, or struggle to. Even more struggle with their numeracy. 

Shannon Trust supports people in the criminal justice system, and in the wider community, to learn to read and improve their numeracy skills. The work you will be promoting makes day to day life safer for the learner, their families, and the wider community. It provides more opportunities for work and education for the learner, helps break the intergenerational cycle of low literacy and numeracy, and reduces re-offending.

Working closely with colleagues across the charity, your responsibilities will include:

• Promoting the work of Shannon Trust, internally and externally, through a variety of communications platforms including print and digital media, video and radio
• Managing the day-to-day monitoring and development of our social media channels and website
• Developing strong relationships with press and staying on the lookout for opportunities to promote Shannon Trust
• Delivering a great experience to our supporters, helping us recruit new supporters and retain existing ones
• Creating content that converts people to action
• This role is a great opportunity for someone who likes to take ownership of projects and campaigns, and wants to lead on important work they can be proud of. We welcome new approaches and ideas and want someone who will bring their full professional expertise to work. 

This is a home-based role but may require occasional travel around the UK including overnight stays.

Employee benefits include a company contribution to pension scheme of up to 5%, 30 days holiday plus bank holidays, life insurance, paid volunteering days, discounts via Reward Gateway and an Employee Assistance Programme.

Applications close 21st February. Interviews are planned for the week commencing 3rd March.
