This is a remote position.
Something is broken in the story we’re being told about Britain. Those who want to divide us – who thrive on grievance, resentment and a nostalgia for a country that never really existed – have been dominating the conversation. Dear Britain is a new project launching to change that. Not with anger, but with something more powerful: a fuller, funnier, more honest and more inclusive story about the country we actually live in.
We want to build a community of creators to tell that story. We believe creator networks shape culture. We want to build one that matters.
This is a founding role. The network doesn't exist yet. You'll help build it.
About the role
You'll find, support and develop the next generation of creators in the Dear Britain community – people with real potential who haven't yet fully found their audience, confidence or creative voice.
You'll spot promising creators early, bring them into the network and help them grow fast – through encouragement, feedback, ideas, challenge and honest creative support.
Some people will need hands-on development. Others will just need the right nudge at the right moment. Your instinct will be knowing which is which.
This is a rare opportunity to build something from scratch, at a moment when it matters, with real creative freedom and a mission worth caring about.
What success looks like
Emerging creators growing in confidence, consistency and creative quality
People feeling energised, supported and stretched by the community around them
New creators developing clear voices and stronger audience connection
A healthy pipeline of exciting new talent entering the Dear Britain network
A creator community people genuinely want to belong to
What you'll do
Scout and recruit emerging creators across TikTok, Instagram and Facebook
Build meaningful relationships with ~30 developing creators
Give thoughtful, practical creative feedback that genuinely helps people improve
Help creators sharpen ideas, shape their voice and understand what resonates with audiences
Create the rituals, check-ins and moments that make the community feel alive
Spot potential early and maintain a strong pipeline of emerging talent
Share platform insight, creative inspiration and encouragement that helps creators keep progressing

Your CV
A short note on why this role interests you – 200 words max.
Three creators or contributors you think are underrated right now, with a short – 400 words – explanation of:
why they’re interesting
what audience they’re building
why you think they have potential
The process will include:
A 30-minute introductory call
An interview with a short task shared in advance
Dear Britain is a project of Own The Space – a not-for-profit campaign incubator building communication interventions with the potential to create meaningful change quickly.
Requirements
You have a strong instinct for spotting talent
You genuinely enjoy helping people improve and grow
You know how to give feedback that is specific, useful and motivating
You understand internet culture and platform behaviour deeply enough to recognise what works
You make creative spaces feel energising rather than transactional
You're organised enough to manage lots of relationships without people feeling forgotten
You're proactive, adaptable and comfortable building things without huge amounts of infrastructure
You care about Britain and want to be part of changing the story – without being preachy about it
You don't need a background in non-profits to apply.
We want to hear from you if you've developed talent in broadcasting, casting or entertainment. If you've worked as a creator yourself and understand what others need to grow. If you've coached, mentored or built creative communities in any context. If you've worked in culture, media or community building – and you're watching what's happening to this country and thinking someone needs to do something about it – this is that opportunity.
What we're looking for is instinct, energy and a genuine belief that the story being told about Britain right now needs to change.
