- Location: Kenya
- Company: Save the Children
- Closing Date : 29 March. 2023
ROLE PURPOSE:
Save the Children is in the middle of its ambitious 2022 – 2024 strategic plan that looks to significantly increase our digital engagement with new and existing supporters to achieve our programmatic and advocacy goals.
Both raising funds and engaging with our supporters through campaigning in digital channels are key to delivering the strategy.
This role sits within the Transformation Delivery team which is responsible for the delivery of projects across Save the Children with a focus on providing Project and Change. This role will also work very closely with the Digital Public Engagement Team, a virtual team, which provides strategic support, specialist digital technical guidance and digital communications to our 27+ Members, most of them in Asia, Oceania, Europe and the Americas. This team also focuses on reaching out to new audiences and engaging with them in non-member markets…
The SCI Website is a very important digital platform for Save the Children to engage and communicate with the public, to drive campaign support and fundraising, and provide partners, suppliers, jobseekers and peers with key information and resources from our organisation and its experts. The platform of Save the Children International’s website is currently on an older version of Drupal which is reaching its end of life and so needs to be moved onto a newer version as part of a redevelopment project, which this role will play a big part in.
The functionality and content within the website needs to be upgraded to better enable Save the Children’s Global Digital Engagement function to meet its strategic objectives. The redevelopment of the SCI Website aims to drive an increased number of people to the website, provide a fluid user experience and in turn lead to an increased number of engaged supporters, donations, brand awareness, and campaign support. The Project is due to be initiated at the beginning of 2023 and is expected to take approximately 16 months.
During the website redevelopment project and beyond, the global website editor is primarily responsible for supporting the new website Senior Project manager and the migration of content from SCI existing website (which includes the fundraising and petition platform) to the new one. This role will also be supporting existing website content edition and run quick technical fixes.
The post holder works will report directly to the Website redevelopment Senior Project Manager and work collaboratively with the, Digital Communications Manager, Non-Member markets digital manager, SCI Web Developer, as well as other business functions at SCI that use the SCI global website as a communications tool.
