This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of a new and high-impact role, shaping how Greyhound Trust engages the public, tells its story, and builds lasting support for the thousands of greyhounds we help each year.

As PR & Marketing Manager, you’ll join our newly formed Income Generation and Engagement Team — a dynamic group driving innovation, brand growth, and audience engagement across the charity. Reporting to the Head of Income Generation and Engagement, you’ll have the freedom and trust to review our current approach and design a fresh, strategic programme of marketing and PR activity that truly reflects our values, our mission, and our ambitions.

With 50 years of history, Greyhound Trust has long been at the heart of helping retired greyhounds find loving homes. As the charity evolves to meet the changing landscape, this role will be pivotal in driving a step-change in how we communicate — raising awareness of the growing homing challenge, inspiring new audiences to get involved, and supporting our vital income generation work.

You’ll bring at least three years of proven experience in both strategic and hands-on PR and marketing — from planning and content creation to media relations, digital engagement, brand development and taking a lead on key events, such as Crufts and our annual Great Greyhound Gathering.

You’ll understand how effective PR and marketing can both protect and enhance a charity’s brand while also supporting income generation and engagement goals. You’ll bring the confidence and experience to balance these priorities and work collaboratively to achieve them.

Confident working across multiple audiences and channels, you’ll combine creative storytelling with data-driven insight to deliver measurable impact.

As a national charity, based in Surrey, but represented across the UK via a developing branch network (often volunteer led) you will need to have experience of working with a large and diverse range of passionate and knowledgeable stakeholders. 

This is a role for a person who enjoys variety, autonomy, and responsibility — someone who can balance strategic thinking with a willingness to get stuck in and make things happen. In return, you’ll find a supportive, collaborative team and the chance to see the direct results of your work: more people understanding, supporting, and opening their homes to retired  greyhounds.

Salary range £38k - £40k

The role is full time, located at the National Greyhound Centre, Horley with occasional travel to branches across the UK.

Occasional working from home when appropriate.

Salary: £28,000

Hours: 4 Days per week (28 hours) Fixed Term: 1 year

● Introduction:

 At F&W and Burnage Foodbanks we share a vision of a future where there is no need for people to attend foodbanks.

Meanwhile, until we reach our objective, there is still a need for emergency food assistance across our communities. This is an exciting opportunity to proactively lead and grow fundraising across both F&W and Burnage Foodbank, to help us continue to meet the emergency food needs of those most impoverished in our communities.

● Through this new organisational role, you will proactively create and grow fundraising income opportunities with individuals, community groups, local businesses and grant giving trusts and foundations. You will be at the heart of our local community, bringing our cause to life and building lasting donor relationships.

You will have the capacity to create and deliver compelling fundraising activities, communications, proposals and appeals that successfully engage and attract donations from new and existing supporters.

● This role will be employed and managed by F&W Foodbank, but it will equally support fundraising income growth across both F&W Foodbank and Burnage Foodbank.

● This role will be remote but there will be an expectation that the successful candidate will meet regularly in person with both foodbanks as well as local partners and stakeholders. Some evening and weekend working may be required to fulfil the role e.g. promotion of the Foodbank, community events.

● Through excellent, comprehensive and considered research, you will identify and prioritise a pool of potential local Trusts and Foundations funders.

● Through the creation and delivery of engaging and compelling fundraising activities, appeals and communications, you will grow our income and pool of individual supporters making one off or monthly donations. You will explore and implement ways of promoting our Foodbanks across the community to successfully attract an ever-greater number of individual donors.

● You will engage with local community groups, associations, events, schools and businesses to grow our fundraising reach and income.

● You will develop, establish and manage a fundraising portfolio capable of generating in excess of £150k per annum. This will include establishing and leading supporter relationships and, where appropriate, to support other senior stakeholders in leading such relationships.

● You will establish a fundraising pipeline for both F&W Foodbank and Burnage Foodbank, incorporating a range of KPI’s that can be tracked and that will enable you to make informed projections regarding future income.

● You will review and finalise the KPIs to be set by the managers of F&W Foodbank and Burnage Foodbank.

● Every fortnight you will meet to report on progress on an operational level, and  every quarter you will meet with representatives of both trustee boards to review progress against the fundraising project objectives outputs and KPIs. These may be in the evenings to accommodate trustee availability. Every 6 months you will input to a report for the Trussell Trust network.

● You will forge strong relationships with colleagues across the wider Trussell Trust network, sharing best practice and learning from other charities across the network. You will proactively take advantage of any fundraising training and skills development opportunities and engage with any joint fundraising opportunities.

Skills

● You will have proven and substantial fundraising experience, covering at least two of these areas: trusts fundraising, fundraising with local businesses, fundraising with individuals and community groups. 

● With excellent written and verbal communication and relationship management skills, you will inspire and motivate existing and prospective supporters, providing excellent stewardship and crafting compelling and winning funding proposals and appeals.

● You will have experience of setting, managing and reporting against fundraising KPI’s. 

● You will be tenacious and able to embrace, develop and shape a new role, working across two Foodbanks and within a matrix management structure. You will be well organised, proactive, and a self-starter who is able to self-motivate.

● You will be able to demonstrate empathy for people from disadvantaged, marginalised or socially-excluded backgrounds.
