Communications & Engagement Officer
Scottish Fair Trade
Full time
Remote: Scotland-based, with occasional travel
£30,332
32 hours / 4-day week. Permanent.
Closing 18 May 2026
Advertised from 23 April 2026

Role

We’re looking for a brilliant individual to help grow and re-energise the Fair Trade movement in Scotland.

This is an exciting role at a pivotal moment for Scottish Fair Trade, with a strong focus on youth engagement, global justice and systems change. If you’re motivated by fairness, global justice and building a better economy, we’d love to hear from you.

This is a creative, outward-facing role focused on growing Scotland’s Fair Trade movement.

You’ll lead our communications and digital presence, create engaging content, support national campaigns like Swap the System, and work with communities across Scotland to bring Fair Trade to life in new and engaging ways.

You’ll also play a key role in connecting different audiences – supporting long-standing Fair Trade groups while developing fresh, future-facing approaches to reach new people.

Why work with us?

We’re a small, ambitious team working to build a fairer world through trade.

We offer:

  • A 4-day working week (32 hours, no reduction in pay). Same benefits applied to part time workers.
  • Flexible, trust-based working
  • Meaningful, values-driven work
  • A supportive and collaborative team

We particularly welcome applications from people currently underrepresented in Fair Trade, climate and global citizenship spaces.

Application notes

Please send your CV and a covering letter explaining how your skills and experience meet the role to: recruitment@scottishfairtrade.org

Deadline: 9am, 18 May

If you have any questions about the roles or application process, feel free to get in touch at the same email address.
