Job Vacancy: Graphic Designer and Multimedia Content Producer

About Global Office Consulting

Global Office Consulting (GOC) is a purpose driven advocacy and communications
consultancy working across gender, health and social justice spaces. We help clients design
and deliver informed, effective strategies, campaigns and communications, shaped by the
priorities and insights of key groups, to move the needle on social justice issues.

As communicators we help clients tell their story in powerful and engaging ways. We use
creative storytelling to amplify the incredible work that is happening across the space, using
data, evidence, and compelling language to drive audiences into action.

As campaigners deeply embedded in the feminist ecosystem, we lead participatory design
processes that centre the voices of those the campaign aims to serve. We bring subject matter
expertise and lived experience into the campaign design and mobilise the community around
the campaign goals. In doing so it is not just the client who is working to advancing the
campaign, it’s the whole community.

As advocates we move issues into policy forums. We support the movement to shape their
activism into targeted advocacy agendas. We help clients present and translate their priorities
and solutions in ways that resonate with donors and decisionmakers. We ensure those with
lived experience are the ones shaping solutions to the challenges they face, working with
supportive decision-makers and stakeholders to find viable policy and programmatic
pathways.

As a network we work across all regions and bring to every project informed advisors, local
knowledge, subject matter expertise and cultural awareness.
