Join our dedicated team and play a vital role in ensuring everyone affected by Motor Neurone Disease (MND) has access to the care and support they need. As a Policy and Campaigns Assistant, you will support the Campaigning, Policy, and Public Affairs Team in achieving their strategic goals. Your contributions will help develop our campaigning community, keep our records and communications up to date, and produce impactful, tailored communications.
You will be the primary point of contact for policy and campaigns enquiries received via email, phone, and post. This role involves monitoring and maintaining the policy and campaigns sections on our internal and external websites, as well as our social media channels. You will assist in drafting content for publications, online platforms, and promotional materials for events.
Managing and maintaining databases for contact management will be a key part of your responsibilities. You will support national and local campaigns and assist in planning and delivering campaigning events.
