Use digital platforms, data and creativity to grow and engage audiences around climate action.

Possible demonstrates, popularises and campaigns for climate solutions which make low-carbon lifestyles the best way to live. We trigger systems change to ensure that whether you’re heating your home, getting to work, taking a holiday, or going shopping, the climate friendly choice is always the most desirable choice.

Do you love the challenge of communicating big issues to diverse audiences? Are you someone who thrives in a varied working environment? Do you want to tackle climate change head on? We should talk!

As our new Communications and Campaigns Officer, you’ll bring your experience in digital communications to contribute towards making Possible’s work relevant, accessible and inspiring to key audiences. You’ll take a proactive approach to increasing and diversifying our audiences and finding new ways to talk about climate change with new people.

What you'll be doing

Working across the campaigns and communications teams, you’ll create exciting and engaging content which brings our work to life on digital platforms. You’ll have a good understanding of which platforms, tone and style are best suited to reach which audiences, and an eye for analytics, monitoring and evaluating what works, and adapting accordingly.

You’ll provide essential, day to day administrative support to our communications and campaigns teams through information sharing, calendar management and document preparation. In our small comms team, there is a lot of crossover between roles, so you will occasionally be asked to pitch into other functions such as web and press. At different times, you’ll provide support to our varied campaigns—from aviation to community energy to traffic reduction to electrical repair—offering you the chance to engage with a lot of different people, in a range of ways.

You’ll be invited to contribute to general marketing, media, outreach, fundraising and campaign strategy. And everyone at Possible helps out in the best ways they are able, by doing things like organising digital birthday cards, taking out the bins or the virtual equivalent, so there’s that too.
