We have a bold ambition for the future and recently undertook a major strategic review including a new mission, vision and values.

You will also need to have a good knowledge of both online and offline campaigns as well as CRM databases.

You will be working within a growing UK Country Team as well as MWB’s passionate Field staff. This exciting new position is about building great relationships, both internally and externally, as well as developing clear and focused supporter journeys.
