We are committed to being impact-led; to channelling creativity; and to working smart. If you’re looking for a genuinely creative way to make a concrete difference to the world, this influential and visible leadership role could be the most important move you make.

The ability to work through relationships is key, and you must have the judgement, communication and influencing skills to play a visible and highly scrutinised role in a major charitable organisation. And as if that didn’t narrow the field enough, we’re also uncompromising about wanting to see comprehensive experience of embedding digital strategy and practice within an organisation, plus exceptional prowess as a strategic marketer, communicator and producer.
