Would you like to be part of a very special charity that for its size makes a huge impact on the community it serves? And be the person who ensures it connects with the people it supports and the people who support it?
We are Embrace (formerly Bedford & District Cerebral Palsy Society), and we enable people with complex disabilities and their families to live life their way by unlocking possibilities and embracing life.
We are looking for a Social Media and Communications professional to help develop our new brand personality and expand our communications offerings, while our existing resource is on maternity leave.
Timing is perfect as we are launching our new brand, website and tone of voice right now. Our professional consultant has provided detailed guidance and templates. All the tools are in place, we are looking for the right person to take this unique opportunity to develop a new presence for a long established, well loved, local charity.
The most important traits for the position are a genuine passion for the aims and values of our charity, a desire to work flexibly as part of a small, highly committed team, and the ability to make positive things happen. You must be able to communicate with very different audiences who are known to us as well as develop new ways to connect with new advocates or families who will benefit from our support.
You might join us with significant communications experience, or you may have been an active volunteer with other charities, schools or hospitals. You may be a recent graduate or someone returning to the workplace, or deep into your communications career.
We are flexible about hours and hybrid working, but you will need to be prepared to come into the Bedford office on a regular basis.
Do you want to make our 70th year and beyond aspirational, impactful and sustainable? Then come and join us at this critical time and continue our journey as we continue to extend our legacy.
