The ability to innovate and horizon scan, and to grow and nurture our talented staff and volunteers is also an essential part of the role.

We are an exciting, young and ambitious family support organisation, and this is a key new role for us, reflecting a successful period of expansion and a future focused on sustainability and continued growth.

As Marketing and Communications manager you will lead on implementing our communications strategy, creating content that tells the story of Home-Start Cymru and our work, in a way that reflects our values, personality and the voices of the families we support, and advances our mission. You will be a dynamic marketing specialist, able to raise Home-Start Cymru’s profile, plan and execute high quality digital campaigns, and reach varied stakeholders through different channels.

Engaging those we support, and working closely with the Head of Business Development, you will play a pivotal role in increasing our profile and positioning, and developing our supporter base.
