Head of campaigns policy jobs

Could you turn bold ideas into campaigns that inspire people to give, volunteer and take action?

Mercy Ships UK is entering an ambitious period of growth and we’re looking for an exceptional Head of Marketing to help turn that ambition into impact.

This is an exciting opportunity to support the operational engine room of marketing at Mercy Ships UK, ensuring our fundraising, volunteering and brand priorities are transformed into compelling, integrated campaigns that reach the right audiences and deliver measurable results.

Mercy Ships operates hospital ships that bring free, life-changing surgical care and medical training to people who otherwise have little or no access to safe healthcare. Behind that extraordinary mission sits an equally important challenge: engaging more supporters, growing income, recruiting more volunteers and helping more people discover the work of Mercy Ships.

That’s where you come in.

Reporting to the Director of Communications and Engagement, you’ll lead a multidisciplinary marketing delivery team spanning creative, content, digital and project coordination. You’ll bring together people, ideas, channels and priorities to make sure great strategies become brilliantly executed campaigns.

You’ll oversee the campaign journey from brief to launch and evaluation, shaping creative ideas, coordinating digital and offline activity, improving workflows, managing resources and using insight and performance data to continually improve what we do.

You’ll work closely with colleagues across Fundraising, Volunteering, Strategic Communications, Communities and Engagement, Digital and the wider global Mercy Ships network. This is a highly collaborative role where your ability to influence, prioritise and bring clarity to complex activity will be just as important as your marketing expertise.

We’re looking for someone who combines creative judgement with operational discipline.

You’ll know what makes a great campaign, but you’ll also understand everything that needs to happen behind the scenes to deliver it successfully. You’ll be comfortable moving between creative conversations, campaign planning, digital performance, budgets, stakeholder discussions and team leadership.

You may already be a Head of Marketing, or you could be an experienced senior marketing or campaigns professional ready to take the next step. What matters most is your track record of leading integrated campaigns, managing multidisciplinary teams and turning organisational priorities into marketing activity that delivers results.

This isn’t a role for someone who simply wants to maintain what already exists. We’re strengthening how marketing works across Mercy Ships UK, building greater integration between digital, creative, content and campaign delivery and creating a more resilient in-house capability for the future.

You’ll have the opportunity to shape those ways of working, develop the team and help create a marketing function capable of supporting Mercy Ships UK’s ambitious plans for growth.

And ultimately, the campaigns you help deliver have a purpose far beyond marketing metrics.

They help raise the funds, recruit the volunteers and build the awareness that enable Mercy Ships to bring hope and healing to people around the world.

If you’re an experienced marketing leader who loves making great ideas happen and you want your expertise to contribute to something genuinely meaningful, we’d love to hear from you.

With a 110-year history, we are proud to be able to say that the WI continues to be the largest and most influential UK women’s organisation, with over 170,000 members. Our campaigns push for change on the issues that matter to women and their communities, from equal pay to climate change, mental health and violence against women. The WI has brought about real change, and this record of action shows that we are as relevant today as we were in 1915.

About the role

At the same time, you will actively embed innovation into strategy and decision-making in all areas, constantly find new ways to reach underrepresented women and build a wealth of data to support your recommendations. You will lead transformation across the organisation by championing change, creativity and a forward-thinking strategy that ensures the continued growth for the WI.

Location: Hybrid, with one day per week at our London, Oxfordshire or Wales office.

About you

Highly experienced in innovation, organisational development or programme management, you will bring an impressive track record of instigating and managing successful organisational change that leads to sustainable income generation. You will be adept at designing and delivering pilot programmes, as well as commissioning research and deploying data to support action. The role requires excellent communication skills and the confidence to advise and lead at both senior leadership and Board level, as the organisation looks to you to lead fundamental organisational change. Experience within the charity or not-for-profit sector would be beneficial, as would an understanding of trends and issues affecting women across different demographics in the UK.

Application Deadline: 9 September 2026 

Interviews: From 17 September 2026

This is a new role at ECU, being recruited as part of a wider programme of work to deepen the relationships between national organisations working on economic systems change and grassroots campaigners. The Campaigns Lead will work closely with the Head of Campaigns on driving forward our high-impact campaigns for economic systems change.

For at least the first year, the Campaigns Lead will be working primarily on our coalition campaign on the cost of living crisis, Cost of Living Action. The campaign, which is currently made up of over 40 organisations from across civil society, unions and grassroots groups, aims to end the cost of living crisis and put in place solutions to prevent it from ever happening again. It focuses on our policy demands in five areas that drive the cost of living crisis: wages, social security, energy, housing and taxation. The campaign positions itself as the civil society coalition focused on the cost of living as a whole, and that solutions to it must be addressed that way. The campaign relaunched in early 2026 and has a vital role to play in putting media and political pressure on the government to take action. 

We also work closely with those most impacted by the crisis and aim to centre the voices of those with lived experience of economic hardship in all that we do. This role will shape and drive forward a programme of impactful communications, advocacy and other campaigning activities under the rebooted campaign to secure transformative changes that bring real improvement to people’s lives. There is ample opportunity to engage politically in this role, increasing as you develop in the position.

Contract Type: Permanent 

Prospectus are excited to partner with our client in their search for a Head of Campaigns – Planning and Infrastructure. As they enter an exciting new chapter, this newly created role will play a pivotal role in strengthening their campaigning capability and shaping some of the most important national debates about how we use our finite supply of land in joined up, sustainable ways.

Working closely with colleagues across the charity, the charity's England wide network, and external partners and allies, you'll help to drive the charity's ambitious campaigning agenda. This role will collaborate with the also newly created Head of Campaigns – Landscapes and Land Use. While each role leads a distinct portfolio, together they will deliver the charity's strategic goals for a more joined-up approach to land, ensuring decisions about housing, infrastructure, food production, nature, climate and landscapes are no longer made in isolation, through campaigns that connect people, influence policy and create lasting change.

This is not a traditional policy role. We're looking for a strategic campaigner who understands how to combine policy insight, public engagement and influential relationships to drive change. And for someone’s who’s interested in the bigger picture of how planning and infrastructure fit into wider land use debates.

Leading the charity's work on planning, infrastructure and development, you'll translate complex issues into compelling campaigns and policy stories that influence decision-makers and mobilise and grow the charity's supporter base, building momentum for change. You'll ensure the charity remains at the forefront of shaping conversations around the future and purpose of strategic and joined up planning and the opportunities it offers for people, nature restoration and adaptation to climate change.  

You will bring significant experience of leading campaigns, policy communications, external affairs or influencing work, alongside a strong understanding of the planning and infrastructure landscape. You do not need to be a qualified planner, but you will have the credibility to engage confidently with policymakers, sector experts, partners and MPs, and the ability to turn that understanding into effective campaign strategies. You'll be an exceptional relationship builder, with experience bringing together coalitions, networks and stakeholders around shared goals. Most importantly, you'll understand how to connect policy issues to public concerns, creating campaigns that inspire people to get involved while delivering tangible policy impact.

We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates with experience across planning, housing, infrastructure, transport, development, public affairs, environmental advocacy or related campaigning fields, who are passionate about building the partnerships and public support needed to create lasting change.

What you'll be doing

• Leading the charity's planning and infrastructure campaigning strategy and delivery at a national level.
• Working across the charity's network to develop impactful campaigns and projects that influence policy, public debate and grow supporter engagement.
• Building external relationships and partnerships with policymakers, politicians, campaign partners, and sector stakeholders to create opportunities for impact.
• Collaborating with fundraising colleagues to develop projects and funding opportunities that demonstrate solutions and strengthen campaigning objectives.
• Acting as a senior spokesperson for the charity in influential external forums, in the media and leading coalition work.
• Leading and developing team members and helping create a collaborative, high-performing culture.

To apply, please submit a CV and cover letter, which outlines your skills, experience and achievements that are relevant to the role.

At Prospectus, we invest in your journey as a candidate and are committed to supporting you with your application. We welcome candidates from a diverse range of backgrounds and are happy to make reasonable adjustments to enable all interested candidates to apply.

Acceptable use of AI:

At Battersea, we value expertise. We recognise each candidate that applies to us will have a range of expertise they can offer us, so we want to hear about this in your own words. We understand the support that generative artificial intelligence (AI) software can offer but it can also lead to numerous applications presenting as generic and impersonal. This makes it difficult to gain understanding of your unique experience.

To best showcase yourself, we encourage you to write your responses without the assistance of AI. If you require the use of AI software to aid in completing your application, we ask you use the generative responses as a prompt for writing your answers and avoid copying and pasting. You must also ensure the information presented in your application accurately reflects your experience.

Closing date: 2nd September 2026

All applications must be submitted before the closing date advertised. We reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications is received.
