Social Media Manager

Oxfam is a global movement of people working together to end the injustice of poverty.

The Role:

As Oxfam’s Social Media Manager, you will play a central role in shaping how our audiences experience, understand and engage with our mission. You will lead the day‑to‑day planning, delivery and optimisation of social media activity across our key business areas — including campaigning, fundraising, public engagement and retail — ensuring every post, story and interaction reflects our organisational priorities and strengthens our brand.

You will be responsible for aligning daily social content with core activity and brand messaging, maintaining high standards across all channels, and ensuring best‑practice approaches are consistently applied. Working closely with teams across Oxfam, you will help bring our work to life online, grow meaningful engagement, and support the impact of our campaigns and income‑generating activity.

What we are looking for:

We’re looking for a candidate who cares about Oxfam's mission to end poverty and is personally aligned to our feminist principles and values of empowerment, accountability and inclusion in all you do.

An ideal candidate for the role will also have:

• Demonstrable specific experience and knowledge of major social media platforms and their technical requirements.
• Experience of planning, delivering and project-managing social media activity on behalf of a brand or organisation.
• Understanding and demonstrable ability to develop and deliver strong digital marketing activities with a focus on fundraising, campaigning, retail and engagement.
• Experience of using audience insight and performance data to inform strategies and optimise results.
• Strong copywriting, content creation, editing and communication skills, with the ability to adapt tone, messaging and formats to different channels and audiences.
• Experience of building engagement and understanding how to create content that drives action.
• Strong administrative and organisational skills, with the ability to manager competing priories, work to deadlines and deliver high-quality outputs in a fast-paced environment.

We offer:

We offer a competitive salary and a range of additional benefits to staff including flexible working options, generous pension scheme, annual leave, additional leave allowances, company sick pay, life assurance and a range of other benefits.

From the day you join Oxfam we invite you to stretch and learn in your role. Our wide range of Learning & Development opportunities includes in-house courses, e-learning modules, on-the job learning opportunities, coaching and mentoring, and much more.
