Role Summary 
LGBT Foundation is an impactful, vibrant charity with a wide portfolio of well-established services and rapidly developing new initiatives aimed at meeting the needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people. We are seeking a Creative and Projects Officer to join our Team.  

The Communications Team at LGBT Foundation is a small, yet collaborative group of professionals dedicated to advancing the visibility and impact of the UK’s leading health and well-being charity. The team is responsible for implementing wide-ranging communication and marketing strategies. By leveraging various channels such as social media, websites, film, and video, and traditional media, the team strives to empower LGBTQ+ communities, amplify voices, foster positive change, and grow awareness of LGBT Foundation’s range of services.  

This role will provide administrative and project support to the Communications and Marketing team. You will work closely with the Communications Manager across ambitious projects and campaigns and provide design and creative support to our Creative and Branding Coordinator.  

Our Creative and Projects Officer will work with other team members, departments, and external partners to achieve project goals, and promote our life-changing services. 

The successful applicant will:

• Support the day-to-day operation of our social media channels through content creation, scheduling, and copywriting. 
• Work with our Creative and Branding Coordinator to co-produce and design digital content that engages LGBTQ+ people and tells the story of our life-changing, identity-affirming work and our communities. 
• Provide project support to the communications team on a range of campaigns and creative activities. 
• Directly report to the Communications Manager, providing regular updates on project timelines, social media performance, and creative content development. 

We are taking positive action to encourage applications from people of colour (PoC) and other racially minoritised communities, trans*, non-binary, and/or older people (aged 50+), to improve the representation of colleagues from these communities in our staff team. 

*Trans is an umbrella & inclusive term used to describe people whose gender identity differs in some way from that which they were assigned at birth; including non-binary people, cross-dressers, and those who partially or incompletely identify with their sex assigned at birth.
