We're recruiting a highly organised and experienced Digital Communications Officer to provide Maternity Cover from February 2024. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn and develop in a fast-paced environment where you can drive positive change within food, farming and land use.
The successful applicant will support the Communications Manager and play a key role in our daily communications and digital media, including social media and website. This role will directly lead the weekly delivery of NFFN’s member newsletter, so experience with MailChimp and graphic design tools, such as Adobe Express and Canva, is essential.
This role is suited to someone who has the enthusiasm to learn and is an excellent communicator. We want someone who is highly self-motivated for a virtual team and thrives in collaboration. We don’t expect you to be an expert in food and farming but to have some knowledge of our key work areas, including nature-friendly farm best practices and awareness of policy development in food and farming. We want to see a passion for the environment and sustainable food and farming, with a keenness to learn and bring new ideas for how we communicate the messages of our core campaigns. You will have excellent copywriting and written communication skills with experience in managing complex campaigns and messages. Our ideal candidate is eager to see change happen, solutions-orientated and capable of balancing multiple priorities and deadlines simultaneously.
Key responsibilities:
- Supporting in implementing our communications strategy
- Managing our weekly newsletters
- Creating content for our social media and monitoring our platforms
- Writing content for our website and keeping it up to date
- Developing content for campaigns and helping to manage comms around events both in-person and online
- Running social media campaigns, including paid social media advertising
- Supporting the creation of content, including copywriting, editing, video editing and graphic design
