We believe children deserve to have their rights fully recognised and respected, just as all humans do. We want to ask hard questions about how we live, what needs to change and how we can contribute to a planet where all the intersections of our identities can thrive. We press for rights – not charity – and campaign for a genuine shift in how governments and societies view and treat children. Through research, policy, art and creative storytelling, we encourage people to think critically about the world.  We see communications as storytelling. Because stories make our world. They hold real power and have real consequences. On a basic level, the stories we hear influence the things we believe, which in turn, influence the laws and policies making up the systems that govern us. So every aspect of how we present stories – how we read, watch and listen to them – matters. Looking at our work through this lens has challenged us to reframe our thinking on how we want to communicate. Our website and our digital platforms are our biggest tools for communication. We have been working towards a dream of audiences encountering CRIN’s website as a holistic experience - bringing design, content and expression together. For our platforms to feel like spaces for conversation (open), not solely where people go for information (closed). Spaces to share ideas and build on the ideas of others to form a community. We still have a long way to go to get there. But we have started the work – and invite you to join us in continuing it.This is why we are looking for a new Communications Manager to lead on planning and implementing our communications work. ResponsibilitiesWorking with CRIN’s Creative Directors and communications team, you will:<ul><li>Lead, coordinate and deliver the communications campaigns and digital strategies for CRIN’s projects, events and activities;</li><li>Develop a new social media strategy;</li><li>Manage the production and delivery of content for our digital platforms in a variety of formats (illustrations, videos, audio and written pieces);</li><li>Manage an effective Twitter strategy for the CRIN team;</li><li>Implement a shift in approach to CRIN’s Instagram – fully weaving it into how we communicate about our work and developing CRIN’s Instagram audience beyond stats and followers to build a real community where there is mutual learning;</li><li>Coordinate tasks for our Digital Designer and Graphic Designer as required;</li><li>Manage CRIN’s newsletter, sending out regular news and updates to our mailing list;</li><li>Manage website maintenance and ensure that key pages on CRIN’s website are kept up to date and search engine friendly;</li><li>Support the Creative Directors’ work, taking CRIN’s existing research and policy work and reimagining it into different formats for different audiences;</li><li>Any other responsibilities discussed with CRIN’s Creative Directors.</li></ul> About you<ul><li>You understand the power of language in all its forms: written, spoken, unspoken, and visual.
