About the role:
 
As our Head of Campaigns and Marketing, you’ll lead on the continued development of our brand and the planning, design, and execution of impactful campaigns that inspire action. You will provide leadership of our communication and marketing team, championing creative marketing and PR approaches that strengthen our influence, boost awareness, expand our reach, and drive fundraising results to help us achieve our mission — to eliminate orphanages and ensure every child grows up in a safe, loving family.

We are looking for a talented Marketing leader with a proven track record of developing and delivering integrated brand, marketing and communications strategies across multiple channels, ideally within the charity sector. You will have demonstrable experience leading high-impact campaigns spanning PR, media, corporate partnerships and influencer engagement to drive income growth, alongside the ability to engage, collaborate and influence senior stakeholders.

About Hope and Homes for Children:
 
Orphanages don’t protect children, they harm them. Put simply: the last thing an orphanage can provide is the first thing a child needs - someone to love them. Science shows what we all know, that the bond between a child and their family is vital for their development. Decades of evidence proves that orphanages harm children, subjecting them to high levels of abuse, as well as extreme neglect. Children always belong in families. They need protection, encouragement, play, laughter and love. They need somewhere to call home and someone to love them. You can help us make this a reality for children.
 
Salary: £60,000 to £65,000 per annum, including any London weighting if applicable.
Location: Remote working with monthly travel to the London or Salisbury office for meetings, or office based with flexible and home-working options for part of the week.
