Do you have the skills to get more people in the UK on board with tackling global poverty?

We are recruiting for a Public Relations Senior Coordinator to join a new team getting more young people to lead international development, campaigning for long-lasting change, and shifting the way we all think about global poverty. If you have a talent for media – and most of all creativity and energy – we want to hear from you.

The Role

Restless Development has ambitious objectives in the UK to engage decision makers and the public to get involved in our work and support international development to tackle global poverty. In order to achieve this, we are increasing our external relations capacity to create an integrated Marketing & Communications team of four including this new UK Public Relations role.

As part of a new team working on innovative programmes looking to scale up reach and impact across the UK, you will not only have the opportunity to help shape the formation of a small but dynamic and skilled MarComms team, but the access to cutting-edge public opinion and message-testing research to develop a new strategy for talking about international development in the UK.

The organisation

Young people are most affected by the most persistent problems in the world, yet are frequently overlooked as part of the solution. Our mission is to place young people at the forefront of change and development.

With over 25 years’ experience, Restless Development has been providing structured opportunities for young people in the Global north to contribute to development. Our International Youth Engagement Unit is currently responsible for a portfolio of innovative programmes that bring young people from the global north and south together to contribute to positive development impact on the ground, improved policy and practice and increased support and commitment to International Development in the UK.
