Become a Mentor Donate

One Degree has spent many years developing, adapting and improving the way we support young people.

As we enter our next stage of growth, we want to make sure that the way we talk about our work is as strong as the work itself.

We are therefore looking for a PR and Marketing Trustee to help strengthen our brand, communications, external positioning and visibility.

This role will combine normal trustee responsibilities with strategic support around:

  • PR;
  • brand positioning;
  • marketing;
  • digital communications;
  • website messaging;
  • impact storytelling;
  • mentor recruitment;
  • funder communications;
  • and corporate-partnership materials.

One of our priorities is to ensure One Degree is understood not simply as a London-based mentoring charity, but as a nationally accessible youth education charity using personalised mentoring, targeted teaching and flexible online support.

We already produce substantial programme evidence and reporting.

The challenge is to make that evidence easier to understand and more compelling for different audiences.

We want to communicate clearly with:

  • students;
  • schools;
  • mentors;
  • funders;
  • corporate partners;
  • and the wider public.

The ideal Trustee will have senior experience in areas such as:

  • PR;
  • marketing;
  • communications;
  • brand;
  • media;
  • digital;
  • or corporate communications.

They will help us sharpen our messaging, strengthen our impact stories, identify media opportunities and ensure that our website, strategy and external communications remain aligned as the organisation evolves.

The role will also work closely with our Business Development Trustee and Business Development Lead.

Business Development can create the opportunity; PR and Marketing helps ensure One Degree is credible, clear and compelling when that opportunity arises.

We are looking for someone who wants to use their communications experience to help a small, ambitious youth charity grow in a way that remains personal, agile and focused on impact.
