Background and Aims of the Community Health Champion Programme
This role is for our Community Health Champions Programme (CHC). The programme is led by and for City & Hackney’s diverse communities. Community Health Champions (Champions) empower residents to become aware of, take ownership and work towards more positive health and wellbeing outcomes.

Champions, with support from the programme, give voice to communities with varying levels of health literacy: how residents access, assess, and engage with healthcare information, services and systems.
The programme was launched during the Covid-19 pandemic but has now expanded to focus on wider health issues and wider determinants of health such as mental health and wellbeing, long term conditions, diet and nutrition.

Job Description
As the Marketing & Communications Officer, you will be the driving force behind the day-to-day delivery of our marketing and communications activity.

Citizens UK
Citizens UK is the UK’s biggest, most diverse and most effective people-powered alliance. We bring communities and local organisations together to work on issues that matter; from campaigning for zebra crossings on dangerous roads, to reforming the immigration system, to the Living Wage campaign. We have a track record of winning change through hundreds of local and national campaigns. We know everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them. We believe that through developing local leaders, we can drive nationwide change and create community-led solutions to big and small problems.
This role will also work closely alongside the Living Wage Foundation communications function. The Living Wage movement began in 2001, after Citizens UK brought together communities in East London to discuss poverty and low pay. The campaign grew in momentum and soon required a mechanism to recognise employers who wanted to join the movement, which saw the establishment of the Living Wage Foundation in 2011. Still part of Citizens UK today, the Living Wage Foundation continues to work with community organisations to make sure the voices of both workers and businesses are part of the Living Wage movement. We now work with over 16,000 employers, benefitting over 475,000 people and winning over £4bn of better wages for people who need it most.
Purpose
At Citizens UK, our staff work within communities to develop leaders, strengthen organisations, campaign for change and organise across difference. There are various project roles and operational, communication, finance and HR roles that support the organisation and project staff and organisers to deliver on this mission and work. This work is rewarding and can be challenging; it requires a personal commitment to inclusion, a willingness to listen and disagree respectfully, and an interest in working in an organisation where our staff, member institutions and leaders will come from a diversity of backgrounds and often hold views that may be very different from our own. More information about how we operate within this context and build trusted relationships across difference can be found on our website and is covered in induction.

The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
As a Senior Internal Communications & Engagement Officer, you'll be at the heart of how we keep colleagues and members informed, connected and engaged across the organisation. If you're an experienced internal communications professional who knows how to turn everyday updates into content people want to read, this is an opportunity to make a real impact. We're looking for someone who can spot a story, write with confidence, and deliver engaging communications across a range of channels. From managing regular publications and creating digital content to supporting high-profile colleague events, you'll play a key role in shaping how we communicate every day.
Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.
This is a varied, fast paced role where no two days are the same. You'll be comfortable managing multiple deadlines, building strong relationships with stakeholders and producing high-quality content and publications that are engaging and tailored to different audiences. Whether you're publishing news on our intranet, developing an electronic digest, creating content for digital screens, repurposing stories across channels or measuring the success of communications to continuously improve engagement, you'll bring creativity, attention to detail and excellent organisational skills to everything you do. We're looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership, isn't afraid to challenge or improve the way things are done and can confidently balance competing priorities while maintaining exceptionally high standards.
To succeed in this role, you'll already have experience working in an internal communications environment and be an excellent writer with outstanding editing and proofreading skills. You'll know how to work collaboratively with a wide range of stakeholders, ask the right questions to uncover great stories and adapt your writing style to suit different audiences and channels. Experience using content management systems such as Staffbase or Dotdigital would be an advantage, but above all we're looking for someone who is curious, proactive and genuinely passionate about creating communications that people notice, trust and engage with. If you thrive in a role where you can combine creativity with organisation and make every piece of communication count, we'd love to hear from you.
You will be contracted to our Haig House 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.
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
- Enhanced paid maternity, paternity and adoption leave
- Generous pension scheme with employer contributions ranging from 6% to 14%, depending on length of service
- 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!
