Job description

 £48,396 - £55,644 per annum.

We normally offer a starting salary at the start of the range.

Full-time (37.5hours )/ Permanent

Based in Islington, London


Greenpeace UK is an independent national/regional organisation within the global Greenpeace campaigning network, which acts to change attitudes and behaviour, to protect and conserve the environment and to promote peace. The global network of Greenpeace organisations comprises 26 independent national/regional Greenpeace organisations with presence in over 55 countries across Europe, Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific, as well as a coordinating and supporting organisation, Greenpeace International.

Acting as a flexible and agile digital engagement expert, you will design, deliver and optimise multi channel engagement strategies and supporter journeys that shift online narratives, recruit and grow our supporter base, and convert online engagement into real world action to help Greenpeace win campaigns.

You’ll translate campaign and communication objectives into digital engagement plans, which you will then deliver with support from content creators. In doing so, you’ll foster a culture of continuous testing and optimisation, using data, insights and technical understanding to identify opportunities for strategic innovation.

In a typical week you could: 

  • Draft a multi-channel digital engagement plan and supporter journey for an upcoming campaign

  • Write, build and send supporter emails and petition to Greenpeace's supporter database

  • Brief a social media content creator on the campaign and help brainstorm ideas for content

  • Respond rapidly to a media story, crafting and deploying timely email communications that mobilise supporters to take action.

Location: Islington, London. Our hybrid working model enables us to enjoy the benefits of both office based and remote working. We ask that staff work from the office in Islington 40% of their time, with 20% required as a minimum. Reasonable adjustments as well as specific office based needs will be considered for those with long term health conditions and disabilities.

Job requirements

You'll have 

  • Proven experience developing and implementing digital engagement strategies focused on  recruiting and mobilising new supporters. 

  • A good grasp of whole-funnel supporter journeys, with proven ability to design and build digital  pathways that move audiences from initial engagement to deeper commitment. 

  • Hands-on experience with digital engagement tactics and tools (online petitions, email actions,  landing pages, advocacy platforms). 

  • Good data literacy, with proven ability to analyse digital performance data, derive actionable  insights, and apply them to optimise campaigns and journeys. 

  • Experience in A/B testing, multivariate testing and optimisation methodologies, and using  analytics tools to track, measure and report campaign performance. 

  • Practical experience with CMS, email marketing platforms and online advocacy tools 

We give you: 
You’ll be encouraged to develop both personally and professionally, taking advantage of the wide range of learning and development opportunities available to our staff. We offer great benefits such as a generous pension scheme, subsidised lunches, free yoga and a wealth of well-being resources, just to name a few.

We particularly encourage applications from people of colour, disabled people, and people who identify as working class now or in the past.

Don’t meet every single requirement? Research shows that women and people of colour may hesitate to apply unless they meet every area of the person specification. If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet all the criteria, we encourage you to apply – you might be exactly who we need.
