Are you experienced in managing an organisation’s digital presence and passionate about managing digital platforms and running innovative and effective campaigns to help create a just world, free of poverty? If so, we want to hear from you!
The Role
SCIAF has an exciting opportunity to join our team as the permanent Senior Digital Marketing & Engagement Officer. The role sits in the Marketing and Communications team and plays a vital role in overseeing and managing SCIAF’s digital presence, optimising user experience and growing our online reach and community. The post holder will also work closely with teams within the Public Engagement Department to plan and execute innovative digital marketing for fundraising appeals and campaigns.
The role will be based in our Glasgow office, although you may be working from home initially. There will also be opportunities to work flexibly in the future.
Who we’re looking for
We’re seeking someone with extensive skills and experience in managing an organisation’s digital presence, and a passion for developing and running exciting and effective digital campaigns to help us to reach our ambitious goals – whether through fundraising, campaigning for political change or raising our brand profile.
The role would suit someone with both creative and technical skills, able to combine strategy and innovation with data analysis and testing.
As a small team, we are looking for a high-performing individual with initiative and enthusiasm, someone flexible and responsive, who can use creativity and strong problem-solving skills to help us reach our goals.
About SCIAF
SCIAF is the official overseas aid and development agency of the Catholic Church in Scotland. Our mission is to enable the poorest to lift themselves out of poverty and work together to protect our common home, help people recover from disaster, and inspire people in Scotland to put their faith into action. SCIAF works in partnership with local and church organisations, supporting communities across Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East, to bring about lasting change. We reach out to those in need, regardless of age, race or religion and believe in supporting the whole person, including their spiritual wellbeing, political voice, cultural and community life.
Safeguarding
The post-holder will travel overseas to less developed parts of the world as required and will therefore come into contact with children and vulnerable adults. SCIAF undertakes to ensure that all staff, volunteers and relevant others, whose work might involve contact with children, will have completed additional recruitment procedures and have obtained a satisfactory Enhanced PVG Check from Disclosure Scotland. We would also confirm that all staff are expected to adhere to a Code of Conduct which specifies the attitudes and behaviour that all staff are expected to maintain.
