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.

This is the opportunity you’ve been looking for – consolidating everything you’ve learned so far about creating social media content and going further in adapting creative solutions and content creation strategies to evolving algorithms and performance insights. 

Helping to shape the organisation’s social presence in order to inspire audiences to take action, you’ll be supporting the creation of highly engaging and impactful social-first content that is specifically designed to deliver against both organic and paid strategies. 

Working from established briefs to develop and create copy, images and short-form video across a range of platforms, you’ll assist in designing and adapting creative assets for social media campaigns. You’ll also help identify and deliver rapid-response content in line with the news cycle – and work collaboratively to understand content optimisation needs and data insights, as well as to meet wider growth, conversion and campaign goals.

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.

You’ll have

• Experience (employment, volunteering or internships) in creating social media content across platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Threads and Facebook. 

• Ability to conceptualise, produce and edit basic visual content, including graphics, images and short-form video, specifically for social media.

• Good understanding of social media platforms’ basic features, trends and best practices for audience engagement.

• Strong written communication, with an ability to craft clear, engaging captions.

• Awareness of how to analyse and respond to opportunities in the news cycle to push key messages and drive engagement. 

• A proactive and imaginative approach, with a good eye for detail, strong organisational and interpersonal skills, plus a collaborative mindset. 

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.

This is a priority for us, as reflected in our representation targets and our approach to diversity, inclusion and anti-racism.

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.
