About Alzheimer's Society

Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer’s Society, we’re the UK’s leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.  

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. 

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a DBS check at the relevant level.

Giving back to you

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance.

Reporting to: Head of Operations 
Hours: 30 hours per week over 5 days (to include Monday morning) 
Contract: Fixed term contract maternity leave cover (expected 12 months)   
Salary: £30,000 - £32,338 FTE (pro rata – based on experience) 

Annual Leave Allowance 27 days / plus bank holidays (pro rata) - plus 2 days at Christmas 
Location: Remote, with occasional UK travel 

About Us 

CleanupUK is a national charity that supports communities in tackling the problem of litter and strengthening community connections. We work directly with people in areas of need to help them clean up and care for their local environment through the creation and support of litter-picking hubs. 

Why Join Us? 

This is a unique opportunity to make a real difference for communities and the environment nationwide. You’ll be joining a friendly, flexible and supportive team that values your creativity and initiative at an exciting time, as we continue to grow our national reach and impact. 

Who We’re Looking For 

We’re seeking an experienced and creative Communications and Marketing Manager to join us on a fixed-term basis to cover maternity leave. You’ll be passionate about driving positive change in communities and the environment, with strong skills in storytelling and creating engaging content across social media, web and campaigns. You’ll know how to bring a national charity’s voice to life in a way that connects with local communities. 

You’ll be both strategic and hands-on, able to manage multiple projects and deadlines while adapting quickly to new opportunities and priorities. Organised and proactive, you’ll thrive working with diverse partners and stakeholders. Above all, you’ll share our commitment to community engagement, tackling inequality, and protecting the environment, using your skills to inspire and amplify voices. 

About the Role 

You’ll lead our communications and engagement efforts, helping to shape and deliver key campaigns and partnerships that sit at the heart of our work. From developing compelling marketing materials and managing digital content to promoting our litter-picking hubs and supporting national initiatives like our Summer Pick Me Up: Protect Our Waterways campaign and The Davina Awards, you’ll play a central role in telling our story and inspiring action. 

Your work will be guided by our organisational objectives and annual communications work plan, with clear deliverables and milestones throughout the year. At the same time, you’ll need the flexibility and initiative to respond to the more reactive demands of the role — whether that’s capitalising on media opportunities, supporting partner activity, or responding to emerging issues and events. 

A key part of the role will be developing and delivering engaging social media content that reflects our position as a national charity with a strong community focus — finding creative ways to connect our national voice with local stories, volunteers, and impact at a hyper-local level. 

As our go-to person for communications, design, and content creation, you’ll bring a strong mix of digital, creative, and strategic skills, along with the confidence to manage multiple projects and relationships in a fast-paced environment. If you’re a skilled communicator with a flair for creativity and a passion for community engagement, tackling inequality, and protecting the environment, we’d love to hear from you. 

How to Apply 

Please submit your CV and a cover letter outlining how your experience matches the Role Description / Person Specification and why you’re interested in working with CleanupUK. 

CleanupUK celebrates diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds, experiences, and identities.

If you need any support or reasonable adjustments to complete your application or interview, please share them here. 

No agencies please. 

Deadline for applications: 23rd November 2026
