Head of Communications & Advocacy

Location: Hybrid – flexible, to be discussed at interview
Salary: £41,000–£46,000 per annum (depending on experience)
Contract: Permanent, full-time (35 hours per week)

At Allergy UK, the leading national charity supporting people living with allergic conditions, we are passionate about raising awareness, driving policy change, and providing trusted advice to millions. Every campaign we run and every story we share helps make allergy visible as a serious health issue and we’re looking for a new Head of Communications & Advocacy to help us take this mission even further.

What You’ll Be Doing

As our Head of Communications & Advocacy, you’ll shape and amplify the charity’s voice across the UK. Leading a dynamic team, you’ll drive strategy, lead high-impact campaigns, and ensure that Allergy UK remains a trusted, credible, and influential voice.

You will:

  • Develop and deliver integrated communications and advocacy strategies

  • Lead creative, impactful campaigns to raise awareness and influence policy

  • Guide our media relations and secure high-profile coverage

  • Provide expert advice on sensitive and strategic communications issues

  • Build strong relationships with policymakers, healthcare leaders, and industry stakeholders

  • Act as an ambassador for Allergy UK at the highest levels

  • Inspire and lead a skilled communications and advocacy team

What We’re Looking For

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

  • A proven track record in strategic communications and advocacy

  • Experience leading multi-channel campaigns that achieve real impact

  • Excellent stakeholder engagement skills — from media to government to industry

  • Strong leadership experience, with the ability to inspire and develop teams

  • Outstanding communication skills, both written and verbal

  • Confidence in providing senior-level advice on high-profile issues

It would be a bonus if you also bring experience of policy development, the UK health sector, or working with lived experience storytelling.

What We Offer

We believe in looking after our people and helping them thrive. As part of our team, you’ll enjoy:

  • £41,000–£46,000 salary (dependent on experience)

  • 28 days holiday + bank holidays

  • Annual pay review in line with market rates

  • Flexible hybrid working and free onsite parking

  • Pension scheme and employee benefits hub

  • Employee Assistance Programme (counselling, GP service, wellbeing support)

  • Training and development opportunities

How to Apply

If you’re passionate about using communications to create real social change, we’d love to hear from you.

Please send your CV and supporting statement via Charity Job. Your supporting statement should highlight how your skills and experience meet the role requirements, and what you could bring to our team.

  • Closing date: Sunday, 21st September 2025 (midnight)

  • Online interviews: Wednesday, 1st October 2025

  • In-person interviews: Friday, 10th October 2025

We welcome applications from all backgrounds and communities, and are committed to creating an inclusive and supportive recruitment process. If you would like to apply in a different format or need adjustments, please get in touch.

Be part of something impactful. Join us and help shape the future of allergy care.
