Job Description
No one enjoys medical procedures, least of all children. From facing everyday vaccinations to the most serious of surgeries and chronic conditions, all children experience varying degrees of apprehension and fear. Feeling scared, powerless, or anxious in healthcare settings doesn’t just trigger a child’s emotions; it can create traumas that impact treatment success and that can have a life-long impact. Starlight’s aim is to transform children’s health through better experiences, by putting play at the heart of every child’s healthcare. Reporting to the Communications & Brand Manager, the Digital Content Creator will create engaging, high-quality digital content that brings Starlight's work to life across social media, the website and other digital channels. The role will work closely with colleagues across the organisation to capture and tell stories that demonstrate the impact of Starlight's work, amplify the voices of children, young people and families, and support fundraising, campaigns, partnerships and organisational communications. The postholder will be responsible for planning, creating and publishing digital content across multiple platforms, helping to build engagement with Starlight's audiences while ensuring all content reflects the organisation's brand, values and strategic priorities.
