Job Information
We’re looking for a creative-loving Marketing Communications person to join our digital content team at Hospice UK. It’s a really exciting chance to jump into a pivotal role here, and facilitate much of the great visual content that we produce as a team.
You’ll be working with some lovely people in the wider Communications and Campaigns team, which is part of an External Affairs directorate. We’re a small, close-knit department but already this year we’ve achieved some truly mighty results – not least, our recent rebrand, new strategy and new visual identity.
As you might imagine, working at a hospice charity brings with it some truly compassionate people. It’s a really lovely place to work because the people make it so. As Senior Marketing Communications Officer, you’d be part of a team of three, including your line manager (Senior Digital Marketing & Campaign Manager), and Membership Communications Officer.
And yes – as a hospice charity, we do work with death and dying on a daily basis. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Actually, by talking about it, writing about it and sharing stories about it, we’re helping to remove the stigma and taboo that it often comes with. And those stories and communications help give people hope, strength and confidence, sometimes when they need it most.
As Senior Marketing Communications Officer, you’ll be looking after a lot of our more creative, aesthetic products and projects. You might already be working as a Marketing or Digital Marketing Officer or Coordinator, and looking for the next step for your career. Or you could be an established Marcomms professional searching for a new challenge. Maybe you’ve already been in a marketing management position and want to get back to doing what you love!
Either way, you’ll be pretty knowledgeable on how to look after digital channels like social media and websites, and will have some experience of both. You might have some photoshoot management and video projects under your belt too, and ideally you’ll have experience of managing a digital asset management system. The role will also involve some print project knowledge, so it would be really handy if you’ve looked after relationships with designers, printers and know how the process works (and what gsm our new Impact Report should be, for example!)
We don’t expect you to be a brand specialist, but hopefully you’ll have experience of working with an organisation’s brand book, tone of voice and visual identity guidelines. That’s because many people in other teams here will turn to you for guidance on how to use our new brand, which logo or font to use, and requests to source appropriate photography in our house style.
We’re looking to bolster our content and storytelling about compelling hospice care, and we’d love someone to join us with ideas on how to elevate that, and help source and write those stories up for us. Part of your role as Senior Marketing Communications Officer will be to help produce content – stories, videos, photos, resources – to our two major national campaigns: Hospice Care Week, and Dying Matters Awareness Week. Check out what we did for the latter: a beautifully animated film and stories of the people in it.
Here’s what the outgoing role-holder says about her time here: “I’ve loved the variety of this role and being able to work with different teams on various projects - it keeps work interesting! I have also really enjoyed the people – my colleagues in the team are knowledgeable, supportive and collaborative.”
We’re based in London’s King’s Cross, just a five minute walk from the station. But Hospice UK employees are based all over the UK! Our hybrid working policy means that as long as you are able to get to the office a few times a month, you’re free to work from wherever you want (in the UK) for the rest of the time. We have both quarterly all-staff and External Affairs away days, which are a great chance to catch up in person with colleagues from around Hospice UK.
If you’re interested in our exciting Marketing Communications role, we’d love to hear from you.
Hospice UK:
As the national champion for hospices, we fight to make sure hospice care is there for everyone, from every background. We fight to make sure hospices are able to deliver the best personalised care. We fight to make sure hospices can thrive – today and into the future.
We represent the community of more than 200 hospices across the UK. They do everything they can for children and adults living with long-term illnesses or approaching the end of their lives. We do everything we can to support hospices’ invaluable work.
Our mission is to promote and protect hospice care for all who need it, for now and forever.

Are you a motivated senior fundraising leader who wants to use their skills to help people experience the best possible quality of life, to the end of life?
As the new Head of Fundraising at St Catherine’s Hospice, you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds. The chance to nurture a growing team towards high-performance, as well as flexing your own fundraising muscles cultivating high-value relationships.
Salary: £40,000
Contract: Permanent, full time
Location: Preston, with hybrid option with up to 2 days homeworking
Key Benefits: 36 days holiday (including bank) and an additional wellbeing day off for your birthday, up to 8% employer pension contribution, life insurance and an employee assistance programme.
Culture: Supportive, collaborative and flexible
About the hospice
St Catherine’s cares for patients and families across Chorley, Preston and South Ribble who are affected by life-shortening conditions like cancer, motor neurone disease and heart failure. Their specialised palliative and end of life care allows people to enjoy the best possible quality of life, to the end of life. They work with patients and their loved ones at the hospice and in their own homes to help them achieve what’s important to them in the time they have.
It’s a values-led organisation with care, compassion and commitment at the heart of everything it does.
About the role
The hospice has ambitious growth plans for fundraising, to enable as many people as possible to access their crucial services. You’ll lead the Community Engagement team to successfully deliver across a diverse fundraising portfolio, including corporate partnerships, major donors and individual giving, trusts and foundations, legacies and community.
Taking the lead on developing and delivering an innovative fundraising strategy, your task will be to diversify income streams in a way that aligns with the hospice’s overall purpose, vision and values. You’ll also provide empowering and encouraging leadership that inspires the team to flourish.
About you
This is a leadership role at heart, so you’ll need to be strategically-minded with a management style that brings out the best in people, and takes them on a journey with you.
We’re looking for someone with a significant fundraising track record in their own right. It’s a small but mighty fundraising team, so you’ll still get a kick from hands-on fundraising and engagement with supporters.
You’ll balance ambition and drive with the creativity and curiosity to try new things, and at the same time, honour the success and history of the hospice’s fundraising to date.
To apply, we’ll definitely need to see:
· A proven track record of meeting or exceeding fundraising targets.
· Knowledge across a range of fundraising income streams, ideally with personal high-value experience (corporate or individuals).
· Strategic thinking, with the ability to lead from the front.
· A keen eye for numbers when it comes to budgeting and forecasting.
· Tact and diplomacy when it comes to influencing – an all-round brilliant communicator.
· Emotional intelligence in both internal and external relationships.
If you know you’re the right person to bring positive energy to the team and increase fundraising while you’re at it, then we need to hear from you!
To apply, please send a copy of your CV or profile to Ellen Drummond as the first step and we’ll be back in touch with further details on the application process.
