We are Stonewall: a leading LGBTQ+ charity working to make the world a safe and equal place for LGBTQ+ people to live, work and thrive. Stonewall is part of a vibrant, growing and global movement advocating for LGBTQ+ rights.
Over the last 35+ years, we have helped create transformative change in the lives of LGBTQ+ people in the UK, driving positive change in public attitudes and policy. We deliver campaigns, programmes, and policy work focused on achieving deep, sustainable change, through convening, collaboration, and conversation.
We face increasing opposition to the belief that everyone deserves equal rights. It is more important than ever that we stand firm and advocate for what we know to be true: Everyone, everywhere, deserves equal rights.
Purpose of the Role
As Digital Content Officer, you will bring Stonewall's campaigns and communications to life across our digital channels. You will create compelling, on-brand content for social media and our website, and manage our Google Ads account, helping us reach, engage and mobilise LGBTQ+ people and allies at a time when that reach matters more than ever.
The role reports to the Senior Communications and Campaigns Manager. There is no line management, though you may occasionally support the induction of volunteers or freelancers.
The Role
- Draft engaging, on-brand social media posts, adapting tone and format to suit each platform and audience.
- Create digital content — graphics, short-form video, animations and other assets — to support campaigns, fundraising and general communications.
- Plan and deliver creative social media campaigns with colleagues across Communications, Campaigns and Policy, bringing key moments and messages to life.
- Update and maintain sections of the Stonewall website, ensuring content is accurate, on-brand and up to date.
- Manage and optimise our Google Ads account, monitoring performance and recommending improvements to reach and cost-effectiveness.
- Support the planning of a regular content calendar, balancing planned campaign content with timely, reactive posts.
- Monitor social media channels, responding to or flagging enquiries and comments as appropriate.
- Report on basic KPIs and analytics from social channels, the website and Google Ads, using these to inform future content and drive engagement.
- Keep up to date with platform changes, trends and best practice, bringing fresh ideas to the team while keeping our tone in line with Stonewall's values.
- Tailor and adapt communications and content to reach different audiences and platforms.
