Job Title: Communications, Campaigns, Marketing & Design Officer

Employer: Thames Life Community Development Trust, Thames Community Hub, Bastable Avenue, Barking, IG11 0LG

Reports to: CEO

Salary: £28,000 / 30,000 FTE (Pro rata 14- 21 hrs per week) 

Location:  London Borough of Barking and Dagenham

Contract:  3 months with further 6 months pending funding (maternity cover)

Start date:  tbc  

Thames Life Community Development Trust: 

Thames Life began in October 2017 as Thames Ward Community Project, with funding from the National Lottery Community Fund to combine a community organising and asset-based approach to one of the most deprived areas in the UK (Thames View and Barking Riverside Wards) and also an area of rapid development and regeneration.  The project was tasked to establish a resident-led community development trust leading to the establishment of a charity in June 2020. 

Thames Life is a charitable company and transforming the area into a place that people are proud of, where they can see a positive and exciting future and feel able to influence and shape the changes that are taking place over the next decade and beyond. Thames Life is laying the foundations for a community that has a strong identity and sense of common purpose; that takes great pride in the rich diversity of its residents; that feels it can shape its own future rather than simply be on the receiving end of decisions made elsewhere; that is better prepared to meet the challenges of major physical and demographic changes over the coming years; and that is determined to play its part in transforming services. 

Purpose: The Communications, Campaigns, Marketing and Design Officer will work with the CEO, resident trustees and the wider community to consolidate the communications infrastructure and ensure the promotion of resident voice through high quality communications, informed by regular community outreach.  The postholder will use strong marketing, social media and communications skills to enable residents to become active and enterprising citizens, working together for the common good of existing and future communities. This post is funded by Trust for London.

Thames View and Barking Riverside Wards: The residents of Barking and Dagenham have a number of complex challenges facing its residents: lack of opportunity, economic precarity, housing insecurity and homelessness, high rates of domestic violence, and significantly higher levels of deprivation and unemployment than almost any other London borough.  Thames View and Riverside Wards reflect these adversities.  Barking Riverside Ward has a higher-than-average instance of domestic violence and obesity amongst children in reception in comparison with other wards.  It also has 80.6% Black, Asian and Multi Ethnic (BAME) population, with Thames View Ward having 76.4% BAME population. Thames View Ward has the second highest instance of unemployment benefit-related claimants across the borough wards with 64.6% of residents living in deprived households.   

Social cohesion has been a major problem over the last twenty years as the Borough has been transformed from a white working-class area to a multi-racial part of Greater London.  The next twenty years will bring another massive change, as large tracts of derelict land along the River Thames are reclaimed and developed to build 20,000 new homes on the Riverside site alone and close to 4,000 on the Thames Road redevelopment programme.
