BACKGROUND:
The Leverhulme Trust is a charity that supports ambitious blue skies research. Awarding between £100–120 million annually, the Trust is amongst the largest all-subject providers of research funding in the UK, primarily in the university sector. The Trust’s income comes from an endowment, so we do not fundraise, campaign or advocate.
MAIN PURPOSE OF ROLE:
The Trust currently undertakes various communication activities to promote its grant schemes and showcase the research it funds. It maintains an accessible and informative website, promotes its schemes and grantees on X (previously Twitter), produces high-quality print publications (Annual Review, Newsletters, etc.), hosts several high-profile events annually and maintains a database of key stakeholders with whom it interacts.
This role will have responsibility for developing digital assets, managing the Trust’s web presence, and leading on particular strands of social media activity. The ideal candidate would have experience of working in either the charity or the university sector.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This role is one of two communications staff in the Trust so while the focus is on digital assets, a key aspect of the role is to be able to work broadly and cooperatively across the whole range of work.
While the Trust has historical links to Unilever, though the original endowment of shares in Lever Brothers, and continues to receive support for Human Resources services from the company, the Trust is an independent entity. The role does not therefore involve any engagement with Unilever communications or marketing activities.
