We have a fantastic short-term opportunity for a Media Officer to join their fast-paced energetic Media Team for a minimum of 3 months, working hard to maximise the organisation’s media presence across UK media supporting the organisation in our fundraising and advocacy priorities.
This role will be primarily focused on delivering earned media for their award winning Crime Not Compliment campaign. Placing coverage that helps them towards their aim of making public sexual harassment a crime. This is an incredibly exciting time for the campaign, as they reach a number of milestones that are crucial in helping them get this law over the line.
