This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of a new and high-impact role, shaping how Greyhound Trust engages the public, tells its story, and builds lasting support for the thousands of greyhounds we help each year.

As PR & Marketing Manager, you’ll join our newly formed Income Generation and Engagement Team — a dynamic group driving innovation, brand growth, and audience engagement across the charity. Reporting to the Head of Income Generation and Engagement, you’ll have the freedom and trust to review our current approach and design a fresh, strategic programme of marketing and PR activity that truly reflects our values, our mission, and our ambitions.

With 50 years of history, Greyhound Trust has long been at the heart of helping retired greyhounds find loving homes. As the charity evolves to meet the changing landscape, this role will be pivotal in driving a step-change in how we communicate — raising awareness of the growing homing challenge, inspiring new audiences to get involved, and supporting our vital income generation work.

You’ll bring at least three years of proven experience in both strategic and hands-on PR and marketing — from planning and content creation to media relations, digital engagement, brand development and taking a lead on key events, such as Crufts and our annual Great Greyhound Gathering.

You’ll understand how effective PR and marketing can both protect and enhance a charity’s brand while also supporting income generation and engagement goals. You’ll bring the confidence and experience to balance these priorities and work collaboratively to achieve them.

Confident working across multiple audiences and channels, you’ll combine creative storytelling with data-driven insight to deliver measurable impact.

As a national charity, based in Surrey, but represented across the UK via a developing branch network (often volunteer led) you will need to have experience of working with a large and diverse range of passionate and knowledgeable stakeholders. 

This is a role for a person who enjoys variety, autonomy, and responsibility — someone who can balance strategic thinking with a willingness to get stuck in and make things happen. In return, you’ll find a supportive, collaborative team and the chance to see the direct results of your work: more people understanding, supporting, and opening their homes to retired  greyhounds.

Salary range £38k - £40k

The role is full time, located at the National Greyhound Centre, Horley with occasional travel to branches across the UK.

Occasional working from home when appropriate.

About Zen Fundraising

At Zen Fundraising, we’re redefining what it means to inspire generosity. We’re a face-to-face fundraising agency with a difference — built on transparency, creativity and a belief that people perform their best when they feel purpose-driven and supported.

We partner with some of the UK’s most impactful charities to deliver high-quality ethical fundraising campaigns that put donor experience and fundraiser wellbeing at the centre.

As we expand nationally, we’re seeking a National Operations Manager who can help shape the next chapter of our growth.

The Role

As National Operations Manager, you’ll be responsible for leading and scaling our direct face-to-face fundraising operations across multiple UK regions.

This is a senior leadership role within a fast-growing, start-up style environment — ideal for someone who thrives on autonomy, innovation and results.

You’ll take ownership of:

• Day-to-day performance delivery

• Client & Stakeholder Management: Partner with charity clients to align campaign delivery with fundraising goals, providing transparent reporting and performance insights.
• Data-Driven Decision Making: Analyse performance data to identify trends, opportunities and areas for improvement across teams and regions.
• Culture & Values: Uphold Zen’s commitment to ethical fundraising, positive team culture and exceptional donor experience.

About You

You’re a self-starter with the confidence and capability to take ownership of national operations in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

You’re entrepreneurial, resourceful and comfortable wearing many hats as we scale.

You’ll bring:

• Proven experience in face-to-face fundraising operations, ideally in a national or senior regional management role.
• Demonstrable success in building, leading and scaling teams across multiple regions.
• A track record of driving performance, meeting ambitious KPIs and delivering operational excellence.
• Start-up or growth-stage experience — you thrive in environments where you can build structure, systems and culture from the ground up.
• Strong leadership and communication skills with the ability to inspire and influence.
• Analytical mindset with the ability to interpret data and act decisively.
• A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly across the UK.

What We Offer

• £55,000 base salary
• On-target earnings up to £90,000 (performance-based bonuses)
• Flexible hybrid working
• Opportunity to shape the national operations of a fast-growing agency
• Ongoing professional development and leadership coaching
• A values-driven culture that prioritises wellbeing, growth and purpose
