My Death, My Decision is a grassroots, not-for-profit campaign group that advocates for a change in the law to allow those who are terminally ill or incurably suffering the option of a legal, safe and compassionate assisted death.
We represent the interests of those facing constant and unbearable suffering and are one of the leading assisted dying organisations in England and Wales, at the forefront of social change. The overwhelming majority of the public now favours a change in the law to allow assisted dying for those who are incurably suffering or terminally ill.
As our organisation continues to grow, we are looking for a dynamic and creative individual to lead the delivery of our fundraising activity while also providing practical support across our communications.
The successful candidate will be a strong writer with practical fundraising experience, able to create heartfelt and meaningful fundraising appeals while also supporting our day-to-day communications across email, social media and our website.
They will help create and deliver content across our channels, including drafting social media posts and supporter emails, building emails in Mailchimp, updating website content and creating simple graphics in Canva.
They will take responsibility for keeping fundraising activity moving, managing timelines and deadlines, tracking results and working closely with the Operations Officer and wider team to deliver and report on activity.
We are looking for someone who is confident about getting stuck into the work. They will be comfortable moving between planned fundraising activity, day-to-day communications and responding to fast-moving opportunities. The role will also involve working sensitively with people affected by terminal illness and intolerable suffering.
As this is a freelance role, the postholder must be confident at balancing competing priorities, with ongoing support and guidance from the team.
We are an equal opportunities organisation. We recognise the positive value of diversity and therefore encourage applications from all backgrounds and communities.
We offer as much flexibility as we reasonably can. This is a part-time, remote role with flexibility in how working hours are arranged. The postholder will need to attend agreed meetings and occasional London-based activities, some of which may take place at fixed times or outside usual working hours. We will discuss working patterns in advance and aim to accommodate caring responsibilities and other commitments.
This job description is not exhaustive. It acts as a guide and may be amended to meet the changing requirements of the organisation at any time after discussion with the postholder.
