Job description

Here at Youth4Youth, we have grown a strong, tight-knit community of individuals who are passionate about making a difference and improving the lives of young people across the UK. Our growing team of volunteers all contribute to the ongoing work with a level of time they can commit to across different departments. Our services primarily offer a peer-support network to young people allowing them to access a peer mentor of a similar age and somebody they feel comfortable speaking with.

If successful, you will be joining a growing team of diverse, but likeminded individuals, collaborating to increase the reach of the Charity and improve support provisions available to young people. All of our volunteers and employees are remote workers, but that doesn't stop us keeping in touch and maintaining a strong positive culture amongst our whole team.

About the role

As a Copywriter at Youth4Youth (Y4Y), you will craft compelling and persuasive written content that engages our audience and supports our initiatives. Collaborating with the Marketing Manager, Social Media Manager, and Content Producers, you will develop copy for various platforms, ensuring consistency with Y4Y’s brand voice.

Responsibilities 

  • Write clear, engaging, and persuasive copy for websites, social media, newsletters, press releases, and marketing materials.
  • Tailor messaging to different audiences, including young people, partners, and the general public.
  • Ensure all written content aligns with Y4Y’s brand voice and messaging guidelines.
  • Conduct research to inform and enrich content, ensuring accuracy and relevance.
  • Develop compelling stories and narratives that highlight Y4Y’s impact and initiatives.
  • Collaborate with team members to brainstorm and develop content ideas.

Skills 

  • Excellent writing and editing skills - proficiency in crafting clear and engaging copy.
  • Strong research abilities - capable of gathering information to inform content.
  • Attention to detail - ensuring accuracy and consistency in all written materials.
  • Adaptability - ability to write for various platforms and audiences.
  • Creativity - developing innovative ways to convey messages and tell stories.
  • Previous experience in copywriting, journalism, or content creation.
  • Knowledge of SEO best practices and content optimisation techniques.

Our mission is to continue to grow towards becoming one of the best charities in the UK. Our aim is to do this by building a diverse team, rich with different backgrounds and perspectives. Therefore, even if you feel you only are a 75% match, we would still love to hear from you. Skills can be learned, but diversity cannot.

Benefits of volunteering with Youth4Youth

We recognise that you will be joining us and giving your time as an 'in-kind' donation, but there must be benefits for you too. When joining our team, you will be open to the following benefits:

  • Professional and personal development opportunities in a variety of skill areas through volunteering in real roles. This may be general development or tailored to your specific needs or ambitions
  • Becoming a member of a strong network of likeminded individuals, spread across the UK, who you can connect with and collaborate with both within and outside of the Charity
  • Access to bespoke discounts, specifically designed for non-profit workers and Youth4Youth volunteers
  • Opportunities to truly shape the future of the Charity, having a direct influence over the impact that Youth4Youth has on its direct beneficiaries

The hiring process

You will be interviewed by the Marketing & Communications director, and the interview will consist of a 30- minute conversation.

Some roles will have extra stages but we’ll let you know as early as possible if so.

Please let us know if you require any accommodations for the interview process, and we’ll do our best to assist.
