A great opportunity for a strong communicator in a fast-growing charity that is helping improve access to medicines worldwide, saving lives and preventing avoidable suffering. International Health Partners (IHP) supports people in hard-to-reach, vulnerable and disaster-hit communities to get the medicines they need, by coordinating the safe and responsible donation of long-dated medical products. We work with our strong network of global healthcare, logistics and NGO partners, to source and send treatments to where they are needed most, to help prevent the needless suffering caused by a lack of access to healthcare. Our work is needed now more than ever. The global outbreak of COVID-19 has further highlighted the urgent need for improving access to medicines and for strengthening health systems. In the last two years, IHP has sent over 20 million treatments to vulnerable communities around the world including places such as Yemen, Lebanon, South Sudan and Haiti.
We are looking for someone who is naturally articulate, proactive and enthusiastic. You will help us raise IHP's profile and hence resources, through targeting marketing and brand campaigns in line with the communications strategy.
You will do this by producing strong communications and fundraising materials for our channels and for key stakeholders. These include IHP donors, NGO partners, logistics and healthcare companies. You will provide regular content for a range of media including our website, social media and newsletters. You will work closely with IHP colleagues to achieve IHP’s aims, and act as a point of liaison with other organisations looking to talk about our partnerships.
Can you help us tell the right story, to the right people, at the right time? Can you seek out new opportunities to get IHP’s brand in front of relevant audiences to ensure we can raise our profile, increase resources and deliver our vision? If so, this role could be for you. We are looking for someone with experience in a similar role and with knowledge of marketing and communications. Understanding of the charity sector and global health would be an advantage.
IHP is an Equal Opportunities Employer. Staff regularly spend time together praying for IHP’s work and there is therefore an occupational requirement that this position is held by a committed Christian. Please make it clear in the application how you meet this requirement.

The opportunity
James’ Place is looking for its first permanent Head of Communications, joining the charity at a pivotal point in our existence, and with the opportunity to shape, direct and implement a full communications programme to support our mission of saving the lives of men in suicidal crisis.
The charity
In 2018 James’ Place opened the UK’s first non-clinical centre for men experiencing suicidal crisis in Liverpool. Our second centre in Old Street, London, was opened by HRH The Duke of Cambridge on 3 May 2022. We believe that those who are experiencing suicidal thoughts need to be in a space where they feel safe, valued, nurtured and respected and that every suicide is a preventable death. Our model is based around a clinical intervention delivered by trained, professional therapists, delivered in a peaceful, welcoming setting.
Our work is independently evaluated, and shows striking clinical results for the men we treat. We are now moving forwards with a clear expansion plan, and will open our next three centres over the next three years. We are now seeking an experienced and motivated expert to ensure our external communications matches our innovative and high quality service and ambitious plans for the future.
