A Willingness to Work with Difference

At OTR, whatever your role or professional background, you will be expected to work in a way that is anti-oppressive and inclusive. A key focus for OTR is to develop an organisation that is inclusive for all but we do not claim to be experts in this.

OTR recognises the benefits to individual practice and organisational credibility of having a diverse community of staff and volunteers and to this end is continually working towards building and maintaining an environment which values and pursues diversity accordingly.

We recognise that tackling systemic inequality, prejudice, racism and oppressive practice requires each of us to actively engage, self-examine and make changes where necessary, in order to improve access and equitable experience for all in society and all of those who come through our doors at OTR.

ACCESS TO A CAR AND A CLEAN FULL DRIVING LICENCE IS A REQUIREMENT OF THIS POSITION

Are you passionate about helping older people live safely and confidently at home? We’re looking for someone caring, proactive, and motivated to join our team and make a real difference.

In this role, you’ll be a friendly face and a trusted support for older people as they leave hospital. You’ll help make the journey home smooth and safe, reduce the risk of falls or readmission, and ensure people feel confident and supported in their own surroundings.

This is your chance to work alongside hospital staff, community teams, and voluntary sector partners — bringing everyone together to create the very best outcomes for patients and their families.

What you’ll do:

• Support safe, timely hospital discharges and home visits
• Identify risks, recommend aids, and escalate concerns when needed
• Connect people with community and voluntary services
• Keep clear records and ensure every discharge is inclusive and person-centred

About You:

We’d love to hear from you if you are:

• Experienced in working with older people in health, social care, or community settings
• Confident in assessing needs and spotting risks in the home environment
• A strong communicator who enjoys working with patients, families, and professionals
• Organised and comfortable with record-keeping and reporting systems
• Compassionate, patient-focused, and committed to helping people live well at home

About The Role

We’re looking for a Marketing Coordinator to join our busy and growing team. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys variety in their day to day work, is highly organised, and thrives in a changing environment. You’ll play a key role in keeping our marketing activities running smoothly, acting as the first point of contact for colleagues across the organisation and supporting on marketing campaigns that reach wide and diverse audiences.

Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us sage and protect our way of life.

In this role, you’ll support the planning and delivery of the marketing and communications annual plan, as well as individual campaigns, making sure processes run seamlessly and deadlines are met. From keeping track of project milestones to managing inbox requests, you’ll be at the heart of how the team works. You’ll also have the chance to get involved in researching campaign briefs, and helping to create engaging presentations, so attention to detail and a keen eye for quality will be essential.

Because the role touches so many parts of the organisation, you’ll be exposed to a wide range of people and projects. That means we’re looking for someone who is friendly, confident, and enjoys building relationships. You’ll often need to make judgment calls, deciding when to deal with queries yourself and when to escalate them, so resilience and good problem solving skills are key. It’s also important that you’re comfortable communicating with people at all levels, from supporting colleagues in the team to liaising with senior stakeholders.

This role would suit someone with some prior experience in administration or marketing support who’s ready for a step up into a more varied and visible position. If you’re organised, proactive, and enthusiastic about making an impact, this could be a fantastic opportunity to develop your skills further and grow your career in marketing.

You will be contracted to our London hub with a minimum expectation of two days per week working in person at the Hub and flexibility for working remotely/at home when not on site. We consider all flexible working requests, as we understand how important this is.

Employee benefits include -

-

- 28 day’s paid holiday (plus bank holidays) increasing with service, with optional annual leave purchase scheme of up to 5 working days
- Generous pension contributions, with Employer contributions ranging from 6% to 14%
- Range of flexible working options may be available, depending on your role
- Employee Assistance Programme providing confidential counselling, financial and legal advice
- Range of courses delivered by learning specialists to support your development goals and objectives
- Opportunities to volunteer
- Travel loans, Cycle to Work, and more!
