About the role Since 2010 Positive Money has been raising awareness of the power, injustices, and impacts of our broken money and banking system - from inequality to climate change and unaffordable housing - and campaigning for and winning reform. Building and mobilising our supporter network with digital campaigns and donations is a central part of our strategy. Reporting to our Head of Campaigns and Communications, this new role will grow, diversify, mobilise, and empower Positive Money s supporter community, and build our individual giving programme, in order to achieve lasting systemic change. Regular donation drives, reactive petitions, viral videos, crowd-funded newspaper adverts, protests outside the Bank of England, hard-hitting emails that drive people to action - our toolbox is always growing and our willingness to experiment is strong. Our team is small but ambitious and we often work in coalition and collaboration with other organisations in the new economy movement. With an e-mailing list of over 20,000, and a following of 150,000 across social channels, this is an exciting time to join the Positive Money team and take our campaigns and individual giving work to the next level.

You don t need a background in or knowledge of money, banking or finance, but rather a passion for empowering people to radically change our economic system towards our values, a strategic approach and learning mindset, experience of digital fundraising and content creation, strong communication, and project management skills. You understand that the financial system is rooted in a wider system of structural inequalities, oppression, power imbalances and ideologies; that systems change is complex and multi-faceted, and absolutely necessary to achieve our vision. You will be excited to try out new strategies and tactics to run fundraisers and campaigns that stand out from the crowd. You share our commitment to an inclusive and diverse team, and our culture of being open-minded, ambitious, respectful and self-aware.
