Join our Marketing & Communications team and help churches reveal Jesus to the next generation. We re growing and we re looking to fill two exciting roles to help build on the progress already under way and take our impact up a gear. Both roles sit right at the heart of how Scripture Union communicates: sharing stories of impact, creating connection and helping more people engage, pray and take their next step with us. If you enjoy producing great work and making it matter, you ll love the mix strengthening the relationships we already have, while helping us connect with new audiences across England and Wales
About Scripture Union
Scripture Union is a national mission-movement, helping churches reveal Jesus to the next generation. We equip churches to reach children and young people especially those outside the church wherever they are, and in ways that truly connect. Because every young person should have the opportunity to discover Jesus, and too many never will. Through Bible-based resources, practical training and our Revealing Jesus mission framework, we help churches build relationships that lead to faith. Our team of Mission Enablers supports a growing network of Faith Guides local people, rooted in their communities, revealing Jesus in everyday life.
About the roles
These two roles are all about helping Scripture Union communicate with clarity, creativity and purpose. One focuses on shaping our digital content and website experience (a big opportunity as we seek to overhaul our web presence); the other brings our story to life through events and communications that helps people connect with what God is doing through SU. If you like work that s practical, people-focused and makes a real difference, you ll feel right at home.
