    • Serving as a responsive and knowledgeable point of contact for staff finance questions and requests, including payment inquiries, expense coding, and platform access
    • Reviewing and approving staff reimbursement requests including meal per diems
    • Supporting the development and maintenance of cost methodologies, including indirect rates and cost allocation approaches, and assisting with financial forecasting to inform budgeting and grant reporting

    About LEEP

    LEEP is an impact-driven, evidence-based nonprofit that aims to eliminate childhood lead poisoning, which affects an estimated one in three children worldwide. We primarily focus on one important source of exposure: lead paint. Our paint programs involve generating data, supporting governments with the introduction and enforcement of regulation, and assisting manufacturers in switching to lead-free paints. Beyond our paint programs, we are piloting interventions to address other sources of lead exposure, such as spices and cosmetics.

    Since our founding in September 2020:

    • We have initiated lead paint elimination programs in 40 countries; completed 33 paint studies; and agreed on goals to establish lead paint regulation with government agencies in 18 (e.g., Angola). 
    • We’ve made crucial progress in engaging with manufacturers in 22 countries (e.g., Pakistan), and in reducing the lead paint market share in Ghana, Malawi and Pakistan
    • Founders Pledge estimates that it costs $1.66 to prevent one child’s lead exposure (in expectation) through our work, making LEEP one of its most cost-effective nonprofit recommendations. Our own analysis estimates that it costs under $5 to avert one DALY equivalent through LEEP’s first 13 established programs.
    • We are a partner of the WHO and UN Environment Programme’s Global Alliance to Eliminate Lead Paint and a member of the Partnership for a Lead-Free Future.
    • We have received grants from major grantmaking organisations, including Founders Pledge, Coefficient Giving, Bloomberg Philanthropies, USAID, and Schmidt Futures.
    • We have appeared in Nature, Vox, Time Magazine, The New Yorker, Prospect, on the 80,000 Hours Podcast, and our co-founders were named in Vox’s Future Perfect 50.

Together, you’ll translate LEEP’s long-term goals into tangible outcomes, lead cross-functional projects to refine our systems and playbook, and potentially contribute beyond our lead paint programs as we broaden our scope.

    • Team management (40%)

      • Conduct one-on-one meetings, training, and appraisals to support your team’s development and success
    • Program and internal systems development (15%)
      • Collaborate with your peers and the wider team to develop our paint playbook and internal systems

    Candidates must be located within ±4 hours of the UK timezone (GMT/BST) to ensure sufficient team crossover.

    Closing date: 9am (UK time) on Monday 13th July.

    The opportunity
    We are seeking a structured and proactive Communications Officer to play a vital role in the day-to-day delivery of our global communications. From managing our content calendar and compiling email campaigns to updating website content, you will support our small, dynamic team in continuously improving the quality, impact, and consistency of our outputs for United for Global Mental Health (UnitedGMH) and the Global Mental Health Action Network (GMHAN). 

    About Us
    United for Global Mental Health is dedicated to creating a world that enables good mental health for all. We draw on our expertise in policy, advocacy, and financing to work with organisations who share our commitment to driving mental health up the political agenda – and securing additional funding for mental health at national and global level. We founded and act as the secretariat for the Global Mental Health Action Network, an open coalition of mental health professionals of over 10,000 individuals and organisations across 170 countries. 

    About you 
    Our ideal candidate is a dependable, detail-oriented communicator who genuinely enjoys the practical delivery of communications outputs. You are highly organised, skilled at managing multiple tasks, and comfortable keeping the gears of a busy communications function turning. You understand how to tailor messaging for diverse global audiences and geographies. Ideally, you bring experience working within an international non-governmental organisation (INGO) or global health context.

    The role 
    Key components of the role include: 

    • Social media content development – collaborate with internal subject specialists to produce consistent and frequent on-brand written and visual content for social channels, in support of brand and advocacy goals. You’ll use Canva, Adobe Creative Suite and AgoraPulse for this.

    • Website development – develop, maintain and update content for the UnitedGMH website – including uploading content and editing pages.
    • Social media channel and community management – lead on day-to-day management and posting on UnitedGMH social media channels, including LinkedIn and Pinterest. Manage paid social campaigns where required. Use monitoring tools to manage social media comments (organic and paid). 
    • Brand guardian: Be a steward of the UnitedGMH brand, helping to ensure consistent application of visual identity and tone of voice across all external organisational outputs, maintaining high standards of design.
    • Monitoring, evaluation, and reporting – create regular analytic reports for social, website and email channels. 
    • Editorial planning and communications calendar management – lead on the maintenance of the organisation’s communications calendar, ensuring content across channels is planned-in-advance of key advocacy moments.

    • Exceptional Copywriting: A skilled writer with a track record of crafting engaging copy for varied audiences. Note: We want an authentic writer who cares deeply about the words they craft, rather than someone whose first instinct is to rely on LLMs/AI to generate content.
