Sponsorship Communications and Marketing Manager
The Opportunity
Save the Children International has an exciting opportunity for you to join our team as the Sponsorship Communications and Marketing Manager in London, UK or any existing Save the Children International Regional or Country office worldwide.
Role Purpose:
Save the Children is the world’s first, and largest, independent children’s rights organisation. Our founder, Eglantyne Jebb, wrote the first draft for the UN Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1923, and we’ve worked to uphold it ever since. Generations later, her pioneering work is being influenced by children themselves. Today, we are still going strong, working in over 100 countries worldwide to build a world where every child can thrive, grow up healthy, educated and safe, and look forward to a future full of promise.
In early 2022, after a review process, the Save the Children’s Global Sponsorship program launched their new program guidelines. The new direction of Sponsorship will engage country offices, communities and partners in all aspects of Sponsorship to address issues of inequality and discrimination so that ALL children survive, learn and are protected. Through long-term program commitment to partner with communities (10+ years), insistence on program quality and provision of stable funding, the future Sponsorship model will engage in social change strategies to tackle the underlying causes of discrimination and improve outcomes for children at scale.
The primary objective of the Sponsorship Communications and Marketing Manager is to develop a communications and marketing strategy for internal and external audiences that will help ensure a clear understanding of the new Sponsorship model and its importance in delivering on our strategy.
The role will also oversee the production of consistent, audience-friendly messaging and communications materials that reflect the impact that children, communities and staff experience with Sponsorship in the 21 countries where the program is implemented.
Success will be a regular stream of communication from those who participate in our programs, and clear communications materials to facilitate staff and Members in promoting, growing and evolving our Sponsorship programs.
In order to be successful you will bring/have:
