    Quakers in Britain are passionate about the power of people to make big changes. We manage the Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI), on behalf of UK and Irish churches, to hasten a just, peaceful and secure future for all.

    EAPPI's small, dynamic team works with human rights monitors, diplomats and other decision makers to end the Israeli occupation of Palestine. We're looking for someone to help enrich its social media work.

    Are you capable, flexible and enthusiastic, with knowledge of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the rights of civilians? Can you develop a social media strategy and evaluate its impact? Do you have experience of advocacy work? If so, we'd love to hear from you!
