Global’s Make Some Noise Campaign Manager

Job description…

We’re looking for an outstanding individual to help lead our charity appeal across the UK’s biggest commercial radio brands. The Campaign Manager is responsible for developing and delivering Global’s Make Some Noise activity across Global’s high-profile brands, as well as owning our Challenge portfolio, such as sponsored runs, treks and cycles.

Who we are…

Global’s Make Some Noise is the charity founded by Global, the media and entertainment company. Using Global’s famous brands – Heart, Capital, Classic FM, Smooth, Radio X, LBC, Capital Xtra and Gold – we help brilliant, small charities get heard and raise much-needed money for disadvantaged children and young people.

What you’ll be doing…

As a senior member of the team, you will be responsible for conceiving and delivering Global’s Make Some Noise content, initiatives and events across your allocated brands and broadcast centres.

As well as managing year-round fundraising initiatives, a focus of the role is to ensure the success of our big appeal in October. Working closely with programming teams, you will devise and project-manage this activity to ensure that we raise the maximum amount of money for the charity, create great content and drive a good return on investment.

Your forward-thinking attitude and commercial awareness will help you stay on the look-out for the next opportunity to raise more money and maximize coverage for the charities we support.

In addition to brand-led fundraising, you will be assigned responsibility for other key areas of fundraising, according to the priorities of the charity. For example, you will oversee our 2017/18 Challenge portfolio, including treks, runs and walks, which involves planning strategy, driving income and ensuring excellent participant care and communications.

You will have the following skills and experience…

You will have at least 5 years’ experience of successful project management, ideally in a charity, media, events or a client-focused environment.

You’ll have a good grasp of fundraising and marketing principles; understanding personal motivations, how to inspire and reward individuals and groups, and how to communicate your key messages.

You will be a creative, innovative thinker and back this up by putting in place robust processes and end-to-end thinking.

You’ll be a strong line manager, able to inspire and support your direct report.

You will be used to hitting deadlines under pressure, whilst adept at adjusting plans if situations change.

You’ll be confident dealing with senior management and getting the best out of high-profile talent.

You will be comfortable working across digital, social and video platforms.

You will have a good knowledge of Global’s brands and audiences and be comfortable working within a digital environment.

You will have a good head for figures and able to manage budgets.

You’ll have strong communication skills – written and verbal – and be a confident relationship builder, quick to understand other points of view and how to respond positively to these.

A proven experience of charity and fundraising is an advantage; in particular, knowledge of Challenge events, such as sponsored treks, runs and walks.

You’ll demonstrate our Global behaviours…
