Justlife’s Vision

Making people's experience of temporary accommodation be short, safe and healthy.

About this role

We are looking for a motivated individual with an understanding of homelessness to fulfil this exciting role gathering people, exploring challenges and considering solutions related to temporary accommodation (TA).  The role will be responsible for pioneering, supporting and facilitating the delivery of a number of Temporary Accommodation Action Groups (TAAGs), primarily in the North West, that feed into national discussions and policy recommendations through Justlife’s campaigning work. Could this be you?

You will be comfortable leading cross-sector meetings and navigating conflicting priorities to move towards change. You will also be enthusiastic to represent an organisation which puts people with lived experience at the heart of everything they do. You will be a self-starter with great communications skills and a dedication to supporting people with current or lived experience to engage in the change making process.

We currently run TAAGs in London, Bristol, Brighton and across Sussex but this work is new to the North West. You will need to be a strong networker with lots of initiative. You will be able to sell the benefits of TAAGs to participants, and with the persistence to see through the establishment of these groups. The role requires a flexible, pro-active and open approach to work, working within Justlife’s values - People before Programmes, Collaboration before Competition and Innovation before Institutions.

We strongly believe in the power of collaborative working, and you will be joining a small team of network development workers working across the country. We are currently growing this team in order to not just increase the amount of network work we can do, but also with the aim of offering more support, share best practice and help make this change happen on a wider scale.

This role will be based out of our Manchester office (minimum 2 days per week in office) but will also require regular travel, including some national travel and occasional overnight stays.

Why do we exist

Justlife is in existence because we know thousands of people struggle to manage in poor and unsuitable temporary accommodation. Their stay isn’t temporary, they are likely to be suffering with deteriorating mental and physical health, becoming victims of crime, losing control of their life and even dying prematurely. We are working towards making their stays as short, safe and healthy as possible.

How do we operate?

Our values guide our work and are very important to us:

• Collaboration before competition
• People before programmes
• Innovation before Institutions

What do we do?

Justlife delivers impactful services in Greater Manchester and Brighton & Hove, supporting and empowering people experiencing homelessness in temporary accommodation. We also drive positive system change across the national temporary accommodation sector, convening those with a common interest; people with lived experience, landlords, charities, local and national government, and carrying out research and gathering insights.

We aim to grow our impact and reach, supporting more people in temporary accommodation and to build a movement that brings about lasting positive change.

Why work for us?

Here at Justlife, we're committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. We want to be an organisation that's representative of the communities we serve, which is why we strive for diversity of age, gender identity, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, ethnicity and perspective.

Perks of working at Justlife

• Great holiday package! Starting at 27 days annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays (increasing to 29 days after 5 years’ service and 30 days after 10 years’ service)
• Additional 5 days annual leave purchase scheme through salary sacrifice

People visiting the foodbank come from a vast variety of backgrounds but all have faced difficult life experiences. Beyond food, we also want people to access support to improve their situation, so we commision Citizens Advice to come to the foodbank sessions to help people maximise their income and provide advice on topics such as housing, debt and benefits.

About Us

Every three minutes someone in the UK develops dementia: a progressive and complex condition that can be devastating for the whole family. One in two of us will be affected by dementia in our lifetime, either by caring for someone with the condition, developing it ourselves, or both.

Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nursing charity that is there for the whole family. Our specialist nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide free, expert advice, support and understanding to help families care for their loved one. Every day, Admiral Nurses help families up and down the country to have the best life possible, for as long as possible.

About the role
This is an exciting opportunity to join Dementia UK in a new role as Head of Digital Engagement. You will be responsible for developing and delivering an effective, proactive and integrated digital strategy, overseeing an operational plan that supports the organisation’s overarching objectives.

As the Head of Digital Engagement, you will lead our Digital Engagement Team, motivating and empowering colleagues to create inspiring and engaging cross-channel digital marketing activity (including website, email, pay-per-click and paid social media activity). This will include ensuring our digital activity is inclusive and accessible, as well as focused on segmentation, testing, scheduling, optimisation, acquisition, supporter journeys and engagement.

With other key stakeholders, you will help to drive digital transformation and a digital culture across the charity. You will identify opportunities for the charity that will help meet our organisational objectives and work with key stakeholders to drive these forward, ensuring there is a joined-up and prioritised approach to our digital projects. Working closely with the Head of Brand and Marketing and the Head of Communications, you will help increase awareness of Dementia UK and Admiral Nurses, while supporting our fundraising, influencing and service delivery goals. Together, you will ensure brand integration across all channels, keeping the brand fresh, consistent and impactful. You will also ensure that the brand and its assets are accessible and effective across all digital platforms, and that everything we produce reflects the values and identity of Dementia UK.

To succeed in this role, you will bring significant experience of digital marketing and communications at a senior level. You will have a strong track record of overseeing the successful delivery of digital projects, campaigns and content that generate measurable results. You will also have experience in developing and implementing strategic plans, alongside managing operational plans with clearly defined KPIs and identified risks. In addition, you will be a strong communicator and proven leader of high-performing teams, able to provide clear direction, motivation and effective line management through supervision and staff development.

If this sounds like you, join us in making a difference in the lives of those affected by dementia.

Our culture

In addition to a competitive salary and a generous benefits package, we truly value our people. It’s important for us to create a working environment that looks after our workforce to support them in achieving their full potential.
