Statistics Without Borders

Compensation

Full Description

Mission: Why does the role exist? This role exists to build and manage a sustainable marketing and communications department at Statistics Without Borders, positioning SWB as a recognized global force for positive change and maximizing the number of high-quality clients with whom SWB engages. This role also sits on the SWB Executive Committee and will contribute meaningfully to strategic SWB work that extends beyond marketing. Outcomes: What 4-6 things will the role need to achieve over the next 2 years that will define its legacy? • Build on our current processes — or develop structure where gaps currently exist — to articulate, quantify, and communicate SWB’s impact across its projects, clients, and volunteers. • Empower SWB to significantly and sustainably scale up its number of projects per year, including new channels of demand generation, via marketing. • Integrate demand generation, content, and branding activities seamlessly across the full suite of SWB work. • Once the current structure is set up for success, expand the scope of marketing. This might include: • Building out a strategic partnerships function that cultivates high-quality, mutually beneficial relationships between SWB and other organizations via a repeatable process. • Developing a product or education function that allows SWB to accomplish its mission above and beyond our current pro bono project offerings. • Build and maintain a strategic roadmap for the above, including goals and metrics to assess progress toward goals. Competencies: What role specific skills and experiences are needed to be successful? Strongly desired: • Previous experience leading demand generation, business development, lead generation, or content teams. • Previous experience leading volunteers, especially remotely or across time zones. • Building and executing marketing and branding strategies, including change management to implement new plans across teams. • Demonstrated experience creating fast, sustainable growth via marketing & communications. • Comfort experimenting with new processes. Desired: • Experience building corporate or executive communications (e.g. annual reports, annual meetings) • Experience working with not-for-profit organizations or non-governmental organizations.
