Senior Press Officer
Be part of a movement to ensure no one faces pulmonary fibrosis alone.
Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis (APF) is the leading UK charity supporting people affected by pulmonary fibrosis – a serious, life-limiting lung condition. We’re growing fast, guided by an ambitious five-year strategy and a clear vision: a future where everyone with pulmonary fibrosis has access to the care, support and hope they deserve.
We’re now seeking a proactive and talented Senior Press Officer to join our Communications Team and help position Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis as the authoritative voice on pulmonary fibrosis - supporting our campaigns, influencing health policy, and ensuring patients and their families are heard in the media. You will play a pivotal role in the development and delivery of a proactive and responsive press and media strategy.
You will craft compelling press releases, source and publish emotive case studies and news stories that secure impactful media coverage to inform, inspire and drive change. Working closely with patients, healthcare professionals, and internal teams, you will ensure our messaging is powerful, accurate, and resonates with a wide range of audiences, from journalists to policymakers. You will help shape public and media narratives, influencing understanding, awareness, and ultimately, improving outcomes for people living with pulmonary fibrosis.
If you’re passionate about helping people with serious illness live well for longer – and want to be part of a dynamic charity making change happen – we’d love to hear from you.
We hope you’ll consider making an application. To apply, please provide the following by 11.30pm on 11th of August:
· Your CV (no more than three sides)
· a two-page summary of how you meet the job description (no more than two sides of A4, font size 11)
· Details of two referees: your last or current employer plus a personal referee who has known you for at least two years. Both will be contacted only after an informal offer has been made. Please include their phone and email as well as a brief description of how they know you.
· We would be grateful if you disclosed your current salary details, but this is at your discretion.
