Redemption Roasters is on a mission to reduce reoffending rates through coffee.
Redemption Roasters is the world’s first prison-based coffee company, on a mission to reduce reoffending in the UK through coffee.
We roast behind bars at HMP The Mount, and we reduce reoffending by (i) employing prison residents in our roastery, (ii) providing training in UK prisons and the community, and (iii) employing prison leavers or people at risk of offending in our ten coffee shops.
As a social enterprise, we think differently to other speciality coffee companies; we strive for profit to achieve our purpose. Every member of the Redemption Roasters team has a role to play in achieving that purpose; to challenge perceptions and change lives through speciality coffee.
The role
We are looking for an enthusiastic and dedicated marketing intern to join the Redemption team. We’re a fast-growing brand with big ambitions and lots of exciting projects in the pipeline, and we mean it when we say that no two days will look the same. In a typical week, you’ll be supporting with creating and engaging on our social media accounts, organising artwork for our shops, writing blog posts, collaborating with other teams to managing sample and influencer campaigns.
This role will best suit someone with lots of enthusiasm, creative flair, writing skills and an eagerness to build a career in marketing. You’ll be reporting to the Head of Marketing. A high level of organisation and attention to detail are essential.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Receiving and organising marketing and design briefs across the brand
- Managing marketing materials for coffee shops and new coffee launches
- Day-to-day management of the Redemption social media channels including the creation of photo and video content
- Coordinating artwork in shops, and managing the relationship with the external partner
- Ensure the ‘Redemption story’ is told accurately and consistently to the public
- Create compelling and innovative content for marketing materials, including blog posts and email campaigns
- Generating ideas to grow Redemption Roasters’ brand awareness and share our brand mission more widely
- Marketing administrative tasks
This is a really exciting time to be joining Redemption. We are about to open our 11th coffee shop this year, with big plans to grow the brand in the coming year.
This is a paid 3-month role, with potential for a full-time role following completion of the internship.
We will be screening candidates as and when applications come in, so please do not wait for the closing date. This position is available for immediate start.
This role is based full-time at our HQ in King's Cross, this is not a remote role.
The ideal candidate will demonstrate
- A strong interest in our mission
- Willingness to learn
- Enthusiasm
- Good understanding of social media and use all platforms regularly
- Strong attention to detail
- Confident in meeting new people
At Redemption, you’ll receive
- The opportunity to impact people’s lives through our social mission
- Competitive salary and benefits
- 28 days holiday per annum (including public holidays) pro rata
- Free coffee and tea at all our shops
- 50% staff discount on bags of coffee in our shops and online
- Departmental dinners twice per year
- Company-wide socials every three months
- 1x Christmas and 1x Summer party
Equality and diversity
Redemption Roasters is an international and multicultural business with customers, suppliers, and employees from across the globe. Fostering diversity in the workplace is both right and good for business.
