Digital Marketing Executive

Greenpeace is an international non-profit global campaigning organisation. Our independence and global reach enable us to stand for positive change through action in order to defend nature and promote peace. We investigate and expose global environmental problems, confront those in positions of power and present alternative solutions.

This Digital Marketing Executive role is a chance to use all your skills in content creation, fundraising, lead generation, direct and digital marketing – delivering paid social media campaigns and digital products that engage new audiences and increase support for Greenpeace UK.

Reporting to the Digital Direct Marketing Manager, you’ll be responsible for creating content for a range of channels and audiences, as well as helping to manage large-scale paid social campaigns.

As a key member of a small but in-demand supporter recruitment team, you’ll be a champion for lead generation and fundraising, recruiting supporters via channels including Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, YouTube and TikTok, tapping into content trends to help us stay ahead of the curve, and delivering attention-grabbing content that cuts through and gets people 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.

You’ll have:

• Strong design skills and demonstrable experience creating content for paid social media channels, especially Facebook and Instagram.
• A good connection with social trends and a keen interest in innovation, digital marketing, fundraising and the future of social media.
• Natural flair for communication, with the ability to work well with others, write copy with different audiences in mind, and present information in writing and verbally.
• High levels of organisational ability, motivated by ambitious targets and deadlines, including producing accurate reports and insights.
• Passion for environmental issues and the work that Greenpeace UK does.

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. Take a look at our Work for Greenpeace pages to find out more about what it’s like to work for us and why you should apply. The role is based in our London office. As we progress to a hybrid working model, you may have flexibility to work from home, but you will need to commute into our Islington head office on a regular basis.

We are particularly keen to receive applications from people of colour; people with disabilities; people who identify as being LGBTQIA; people who have a mental health condition; and people who identify as working class now or in the past.
