You’ll also work closely with senior leadership and campaigners to develop high-impact public messaging that challenges stigma, shifts perceptions, and supports our mission.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead the development and delivery of a cross-channel communications strategy aligned to our mission and values.
- Oversee media relations, public campaigns, digital storytelling, and brand – ensuring consistent, impactful messaging.
- Line manage and develop a skilled team, fostering a collaborative and inclusive culture.
- Act as a strategic advisor on narrative, positioning, and crisis communications to senior leadership.
- Champion the ethical use of lived experience in our communications, always with dignity, consent, and authenticity.
- Build and maintain relationships with journalists, partners, influencers, and allies to amplify our reach and voice.
About You:
- A senior communications leader with a strong track record in charity, media, public affairs or campaigning – ideally within the social justice space
- Excellent strategic thinking, storytelling, and audience engagement skills – with the ability to turn complex issues into powerful, people-led narratives.
- Skilled in leading high-performing teams and managing communications across digital, press, and campaigns.
- Confident working with senior stakeholders, managing reputational risk, and responding to media attention.

Working with major charities, corporate partners and decision-makers, are you the person with the diplomacy, organisation and vision to lead planning and delivery of major public events and campaigns in a way that is more integrated and powerful than ever before?
You would be joining a small, dynamic Link team, but working with partners from across the nature charity sector and beyond. Please do apply if you would like to be at the forefront of nature-campaigning in the UK.
To apply, please send your CV, with a short covering letter and a completed diversity monitoring form by 9am on Monday 3rd November 2025.
