About Pembroke House
Pembroke House is a centre for social action and residential community in Walworth, south-east London.
We were founded in 1885, by students from Pembroke College, Cambridge, as one of the first settlement houses. Shocked by growing poverty and inequality, the pioneers of the settlement movement sought a new approach: taking up residence to live, work and solve problems alongside local communities.
For over 130 years, we’ve been working to bridge traditional divides and unite people – whatever their background or walk of life – in building a better Walworth.

The Copywriter will play a crucial role in Pembroke House’s fundraising efforts and in communicating our work to a range of audiences.

And you’ll combine these written skills with a proven eye for detail and the ability to see overlapping tasks through to completion.
