We are uniting for a life unlimited for everyone affected by cystic fibrosis. We need to make sure we’re using every channel we have available to connect to both the people we exist to help and the people who have the means to help us achieve our goals. That’s where you come in!

To make a lasting impact on those we are here for, we need a person with strong social media skills and an abundance of energy and commitment. This is your chance to be part of a busy social media team that aims to reach, engage, and activate people in our fight for people with cystic fibrosis.

You’ll have a nose for what makes good content, be able to deliver fresh and interesting content across our social media channels and understand the metrics of demonstrating impact.

We’re looking for someone who’s not afraid to push the boundaries, embraces change and is happy to explore new ways of engaging our audiences. You will understand the challenges of rare medical conditions, like cystic fibrosis, and charitable landscape.

You’ll work closely with our fundraising team to help us tell the stories of the amazing people who support us, bring our amazing research and resources to life. Most importantly, you’ll create opportunities for people with cystic fibrosis to be involved in the work that we do.

We also offer a range of benefits, flexible working, plus opportunities for learning and development.

Closing date for completed applications is 5pm Monday 30 May 2022.

Interviews expected on Friday 8 June 2022.
