It's hard to believe that today 748 million people still don't have clean, safe water and 2.5 billion live without a toilet. The resulting diseases kill one child every minute.

WaterAid is looking for a Direct Marketing Officer to play a vital role in our mission to transform lives with safe water, sanitation and hygiene in the world's poorest communities.

Working within the Supporter Development and Retention Team, the Direct Marketing Officer will work both online and offline, managing fundraising activities to generate and maximise cash income, and play a key part in the direct marketing programme.

The team's contribution is crucial to the growth of the organisation, bringing in just under 50% of total income. The team's direct marketing activity includes cash appeals, upgrade, Gift Aid activity and virtual giving products.

To be successful, you will need direct marketing experience, excellent project management skills, and the ability to manage relationships with a range of internal stakeholders and external suppliers.

By 2030 we want everyone, everywhere to have clean water, sanitation and hygiene. We need you to help us make it happen. If you bring your expertise, passion and professionalism, we'll give you a lot back.

Working with us, you will be entitled to a wide range of employee benefits, such as an exceptional pension fund, medical cash plans, an employee assistance programme, generous annual leave and Save As You Learn schemes, as well as fitness and lifestyle programmes.

Please note: in order to apply for this role you must be able to demonstrate your eligibility to work in the UK.

No recruitment agencies please.
