Job description

This role requires that you are resident and have the right to work in the UK.

On a day-to-day basis, you will help NEON's partners develop effective content and digital comms strategy - and offer support and training in both digital skills and ways to stay safe online. You will centre anti-oppression in your work and be able to help people stay safe online, especially those from marginalised backgrounds. You'll be across emerging trends, using platforms effectively and aware of how to make use of digital to empower our base and persuade people to our causes. You will be across what's happening online and in the news - and be able to quickly jump on opportunities to tell a compelling alternative story.

This project is part of a wider Communications Hub in which you'll play an active role, helping to develop the overall strategy and direction of the project. The overall aim of the Hub is to strengthen the communication skills and abilities of progressives in the UK. The Hub has five programmes, and Digital will be the sixth programme.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the strategy development and delivery of the digital comms programme

  • Provide digital comms support to our spokespeople and allied organisations
  • Working with a digital crisis comms support service - helping spokespeople skill up in countering misinformation and disinformation, and stepping in with tailored support for spokespeople receiving hate online
  • Give regular insight to our partners on digital trends, changes to the media landscape and shifts in the ways digital content is shaping public opinion
  • Play an active role in the wider Comms Hub, attending and feeding into key messaging and narrative development and supporting the Co-Directors with overall strategy
  • Monthly oversight and control over the Spokesperson Network finances
