We are looking for an experienced and highly motivated communications professional to increase the visibility of our charity, expand our audiences and strengthen engagement across our digital platforms.
In this varied position, you’ll lead our communications team and play a key role in raising awareness of our work to advance the quality of veterinary care for the benefit of animals, the public and society.
You will be a great communications all-rounder, with a deep understanding of what makes engaging content and experience of increasing reach and engagement through powerful story-telling and creative digital marketing campaigns.
