The role includes leadership of our communications and media activity, ensuring our messaging is clear, compelling and aligned with our brand across all audiences, including supporters, partners and the wider public.

You will lead and support a team of staff and volunteers, fostering a collaborative and high-performing environment, with the capacity to grow and evolve in line with our ambitions.

As a senior leader, you will contribute to the wider strategic direction of the organisation, helping to identify new opportunities for innovation and impact.

This role would suit an experienced income generation or fundraising leader who is looking to broaden their impact across communications, or someone seeking an opportunity to play a key role in shaping the future direction of a values-driven organisation.

About Kidney Research UK:

Kidney Research UK is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Our vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research, we fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making our work more essential than ever.

At Kidney Research UK we work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. We collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.
Over the last ten years we have invested more than £71 million into research. We lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.

Most importantly, we also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything we do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan our priorities and our work across the charity.

Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.
