Most charity marketing jobs sound exactly the same. 

“Exciting opportunity.” 
“Fast-paced environment.” 
“Dynamic team.” 

We imagine that you’ve seen it all before. Probably read it on a job post on here. 

So, here’s the reality instead. We are a small charity doing genuinely life-changing work for people impacted by rare, life changing neurological conditions. 

We support people through some of the hardest moments of their lives. We help people feel less alone. We raise awareness of conditions hardly anyone has heard of until they suddenly turn someone’s world upside down. 

And we need someone brilliant to help us shout louder. 

Not corporate louder. Human louder. 

We are looking for a Marketing Executive who can create engaging content, spot a good story a mile off, build communities, grow awareness, and help us reach more people who need us. 

You’ll be creating social posts, campaigns, newsletters, website content, awareness activity, fundraising communications, and probably the occasional “can you quickly make this look nice?” job too. Because that’s charity life. 

This is not a role where you disappear into layers of management and endless sign-off processes. You’ll have space to bring ideas to life, to try new things, to be creative, and to actually see the impact of your work, every day. 

This role would suit someone with some marketing or communications experience who wants to keep learning, build confidence, and grow in a bold, developing, supportive, and purpose-driven organisation. 

We want someone who: 

• Gets digital and social media 

• Knows how to write like a human being 

• Understands that awareness matters 

• Is creative, organised, and proactive 

• Isn’t afraid to try something different 

• Wants their work to actually mean something 

• Can crack on with stuff without someone directing everything you do 

You do not need to tick every single box. If you’re good at what you do, care about people and making a difference, and want to work somewhere with purpose and personality, we’d really love to hear from you. 

The important bits 

Salary: £28,500 
Hours: 37 hours per week 
Location: Hybrid – mainly home-based, with at least one day per month in our office in Sleaford, Lincolnshire, plus occasional travel 
Contract: Permanent 

What you’ll get 

• Flexible hybrid working 

• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays 

• Pension contribution 

• A genuinely supportive team 

• Freedom to bring ideas to life 

• Opportunities to learn and grow 

• Work that actually matters 

• A charity that trusts people to do their jobs without micromanaging every breath they take 

Most importantly, you’ll help people impacted by Inflammatory Neuropathies feel informed, supported, connected, and heard. 

And honestly? That’s pretty cool. 

To apply, please submit your CV and a covering letter telling us why you’d be a great fit by 30th June 2026.

Stroke Association

Finding strength through support

The Stroke Association is the only charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families. We provide tailored support to tens of thousands of stroke survivors each year. This support includes one-to-one and group support, funding vital scientific research into stroke prevention, acute treatment, recovery and long-term care, and campaigning to secure the best care for everyone affected by stroke. 

We’re here for stroke survivors and their loved ones, from the moment they enter the new and frightening post-stroke world, supporting them every step of the way as they find their strength and their way back to life.

It’s only thanks to the generosity of our supporters and donors that we can provide vital support. 

Stroke Association is driven by our ambition to improve the lives of everyone affected by stroke. This means we’re determined to create an equitable and inclusive workplace that benefits from the difference, and thrives on the diversity, of our people. Guided by Our approach to solving inequity in stroke, we are prioritising listening to, and learning from, lived experience across our charity.

We are working to improve the representation of this lived experience at all levels within the Stroke Association and we are eager to recruit applicants from a variety of communities and backgrounds. We are keen to receive applications from people affected by stroke, people of colour, members of LGBT+ communities, and disabled people because these identities and experiences are underrepresented and would add enormous value to how we work.
