Ensuring those who served are always supported.

Founded in 1681 by King Charles II, the Royal Hospital Chelsea has stood for centuries as a national symbol of gratitude to the soldiers who have served our country, and is home to the iconic Chelsea Pensioners. Today, the Hospital’s job remains to ensure that those who have served are always supported.

We are now looking for a skilled Marketing Officer to contribute to and deliver effective marketing campaigns to help meet the organisation's core strategic objectives. This is an exciting role within the Marketing and Communications team and a fantastic opportunity to join an historic organisation, the home of the iconic Chelsea Pensioners since 1692.

The successful candidate will have a strategic mindset and relevant experience of managing delivering impactful multi-channel campaigns and email marketing for a range of audiences, and ideally at a nationally recognised organisation within the military, charity, cultural or public sectors.

Where you fit in

You’ll join an ambitious marketing and communications team focused on raising the Royal Hospital’s profile, increasing fundraising income, and building new audiences through strategic, emotive and measurable communications.

Your work will directly contribute to protecting and securing the future of the Royal Hospital Chelsea - helping us reach supporters, donors, and the veteran community with stories that inspire action and demonstrate undeniable impact.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be delivering a range of digital and traditional marketing campaigns for stakeholders across fundraising, commercial and heritage parts of the organisation – including the Chelsea Pensioners Veterans Outreach programme, which aims to combat loneliness and isolation in older veterans across the UK.

You’ll drive our delivery of e-newsletters and supporter journeys through dot digital, and report on trends and insights in order for us to learn and improve.

We want someone who is:

• A skilled and confident executor, who is experienced in consumer marketing and promoting a wide range of projects including public events to the right audiences.
• A confident email marketeer, with experience of welcome and supporter journeys and supporter e-newsletters.
• Creative in crafting compelling marketing content to deliver effective, multi-channel marketing campaigns.

The Head of Fundraising and Communications plays a pivotal role in shaping and driving Bowel Research UK's fundraising strategies and audience engagement initiatives.

This position is responsible for embedding and executing comprehensive fundraising strategies, growing the charity’s supporter base and income, building up new and under-developed income streams and communicating effectively with their audiences to expand their reach, and encourage financial and non-financial support to deliver the organisations mission.

You will have the autonomy and scope to drive elements of your work and take ownership of your own objectives. You will be required to collaborate on decisions to shape and deliver initiatives, programmes and processes as required for each area of income delivery. 

Key to the success of this role is a strong understanding of individual giving fundraising – an area that is underdeveloped at Bowel Research UK. This role blends the strategic oversight and leadership of a Head of Fundraising role, with the hands-on expertise of an IG fundraiser. Experience across other income streams would be a huge benefit as the role leads all fundraising income streams, but experience in individual giving is essential.

The successful candidate for this role will be someone who has already operated at a senior level within a charity such as at Senior Manager level, or Head of in a specific income stream.
