Development Officer (Maternity Cover)

Liberty is an independent membership organisation. We challenge injustice, defend freedom and campaign to make sure everyone in the UK is treated fairly.

We are campaigners, lawyers and policy experts who work together to protect rights and hold the powerful to account. We empower others to defend their own rights and the rights of their family, friends and communities.

Our principles are guided by evidence and expertise – not political agenda, profit or popular opinion. We’re not afraid to speak uncomfortable truths or confront intolerance and abuse of power wherever we find it.

Together we’ve been making the UK a fairer, more equal place since 1934.

Working collaboratively with the Development Manager and two Development Assistants, the Development Officer helps steward Liberty’s growing membership, recruit new members, and promote other forms of individual giving. The successful candidate will take over editorial responsibility for the member magazine, which keeps Liberty’s thousands of members informed about the impact of our advocacy work.

This role carries a wide range of responsibilities, from project management and copy editing, to fundraising and database management.

You will be joining Liberty at an exciting time. We are working to an ambitious fundraising strategy that aims to grow Liberty’s membership and individual giving income. The successful candidate will play a vital role in achieving this growth.

Liberty is striving to build a team that is truly inclusive. We welcome applications from marginalised groups, particularly people of colour, trans and non-binary people, older and disabled people. Your potential to learn and grow in the role is important to us, so even if you don’t have 100% of what we are asking for, we want to hear from you.
