Crimestoppers is an independent charity that plays a vital role in helping people speak up about crime safely and anonymously. For over 35 years, we’ve worked with the public, police, and a wide range of partners to ensure vital information gets to where it’s needed - helping to solve and prevent crime, protect communities, and save lives.

We’re now looking for a Head of Marketing and Communications to lead and shape the vital function that sits within the role. This is a senior strategic role at the heart of the organisation, whilst still allowing the post holder to stretch creatively. You’ll be responsible for building national campaigns, leading our communications strategy, overseeing our brand, and ensuring our message reaches the right people including the public, law enforcement and commercial clients and partners.

This is more than a brand role. It’s about driving real-world impact and action; helping people feel confident to share what they know about crime, supporting victims, and promoting positive change. Crimestoppers operates in a complex landscape of public safety, corporate partnerships, and digital innovation and so knowledge of the commercial world is key. You’ll need to balance creativity with accountability, public interest with stakeholder engagement, and strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.

We’re looking for someone with strong leadership experience across marketing, media, digital, and strategic communications, ideally in a high-profile or sensitive environment whether this be not-for-profit or otherwise. You’ll need to be comfortable managing teams and budgets, influencing at senior management team level, and working across different sectors. Most importantly, you’ll share our belief that everyone has a right to feel safe from crime.

Please submit both a CV and covering letting in application for this role - applications without covering letters may not be considered.
