Perfect stepping stone opportunity: Join our growing team where you'll gain hands-on experience across digital marketing, social media management, and fundraising campaigns while working alongside experienced professionals who are invested in your development.
Meaningful impact: Every post, every campaign, and every story you help share directly contributes to facilitating life-changing surgery for disadvantaged children from developing countries. Your work literally changes lives.

Diverse experience: From social media strategy to campaign support, brand management to donor communications – you'll develop a comprehensive skill set that's highly valued in the nonprofit and commercial sectors.

As our Marketing and Communications Coordinator, you'll manage day-to-day social media activities, manage the website, write and eDMs, marketing materials and updates to drive donor engagement. You'll help maintain our brand standards and play a key role in ensuring our supporters feel engaged and connected to our mission.
This is hands-on marketing and communications work where you'll see the direct impact of your efforts on both our digital presence and our ability to help more children.
What we're looking for
- 2+ years of marketing, communications, or digital marketing experience
- Strong social media management skills across multiple platforms
- Excellent written communication abilities with keen attention to detail
- Experience with content creation and design
- Positive attitude and passion for making a difference
