Do you love connecting people, telling stories that matter, and seeing communities thrive? Let’s Grow Preston is looking for a creative and organised Communications and Marketing Officer to help shout about the incredible things growing in our gardens — and in the hearts and minds of the people who tend them.
We’re a small, award-winning charity with a big impact: improving health, wellbeing, skills and connection through horticulture and green space. Our volunteers come from all walks of life, and your job will be to help make sure they — and our work — are visible, celebrated, supported and heard.
You’ll be the voice behind our newsletters, social media, and promotional campaigns. You’ll support the team with materials and messaging that help us run brilliant community events and keep partners, volunteers, and funders in the loop. One day you might be designing a flyer or creating a short video; the next you might be writing up an impact story or helping prep for a public event.
We’re looking for someone who can juggle a varied workload, meet deadlines, and take real initiative — whether that’s chasing up content from the team or keeping us on track with our comms calendar. You’ll need a thick skin, a warm heart, and the kind of values that mean you’ll muck in when it matters. And while we’ll support your learning and development, we expect someone who’s ready to crack on and grow into the role.
We’re a proudly inclusive organisation, and we value the principles of equality, dignity, and respect. That goes hand-in-hand with our safeguarding and code of behaviour policies — we all look out for each other here.
