Are you a budding marketeer with a keen interest in mindfulness? Do you want to work in a compassionate environment where your contributions directly support people living with chronic pain, stress, and illness? If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
Breathworks is a global charity based in Manchester, offering mindfulness-based tools to help people lead more fulfilling lives. We're looking for a Marketing Coordinator to join our small, close-knit team, where your work will make a meaningful difference.
WHY WORK WITH US?
At Breathworks, we offer a unique opportunity to grow, learn, and make a tangible impact. In a smaller, close-knit team like ours, you’ll have the chance to be involved in a wide range of projects and take on more responsibility than you might in larger organisations. This means you’ll develop your skills quickly and see the real impact of your work in supporting people living with pain, stress, and illness.
If you’re passionate about conscious marketing and using your skills to make a meaningful difference, this is the role for you. You’ll gain broad experience across marketing and communications, from strategy to execution, all while being part of a supportive, compassionate environment that values personal and professional growth.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As Marketing Coordinator, you’ll work closely with our Head of Marketing, Shannon Phillips, to bring the Breathworks story to life. From creating engaging content for social media to designing marketing materials and coordinating our free Community of Practice, you’ll play a vital role in helping us reach more people in need.
In this varied role, your key responsibilities will include:
- Content Creation: Crafting visuals, videos, and marketing materials that resonate with our audience.
- Community Development: Engaging with our online mindfulness community and boosting participation in our events.
- Social Media Management: Driving our presence across platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
- Website & SEO: Writing blogs and ensuring our online content remains up-to-date and SEO-friendly.
- Email Marketing: Supporting our monthly newsletters and maintaining segmented mailing lists.
You’ll also have the chance to collaborate on fundraising campaigns, event promotion, and even represent Breathworks at conferences.
WHO WE'D LOVE TO JOIN US
This role is ideal for someone starting out in their marketing career, looking for meaningful and rewarding work. An interest in mindfulness is essential - but you don't need to be an expert meditator (is there even such a thing?) Download our full Role Description here to see if this role is for you.
WHAT WE OFFER
At Breathworks, we believe in nurturing our team members, both personally and professionally. In addition to a salary of £24,824 FTE (pro-rated to £19,858.50 for 30 hours), we offer:
- Generous annual leave (7.6 weeks)
- Flexible working arrangements
- Free access to selected Breathworks mindfulness events
- Opportunities for training and professional development
- A supportive, compassionate team environment
