Do you have experience successfully developing and deploying meaningful multi-channel marketing strategies and campaigns? Could you help to bring dementia out from behind closed doors and raise public awareness of dementia as a major health and social crisis?

About the role
We are currently recruiting for a Senior Marketing Manager (Support and Influencing) to join on a full-time basis, working 35 hours per week on a fixed-term contract for 12 months. This is a home-based role, with occasional travel required for in-person team meetings and events.

As Senior Marketing Manager (Support and Influencing), your role will be pivotal in galvanising our society around dementia: creating the conditions for greater public engagement, determination and pressure for change.

Your work will position dementia as a major health and social issue, mobilising the public to pressure the system for better diagnosis, treatment, care and support. You will help us to move dementia from overlooked to unavoidable, whilst also contributing to increasing awareness and engagement with Alzheimer’s Society’s vital and life changing support services and health information.

You will also be leading the charge in driving the public to Demand a Better Future for people affected by dementia through targeted influencing marketing campaigns. You will build our influencing and campaigning marketing programme with key internal senior stakeholders to drive the public to pressure the government and the system to drive positive change around dementia diagnosis, treatment, care and support.

You will use audience centred, multi-channel marketing strategies, plans and activations to drive an increase in awareness, perceptions, understanding and engagement, helping us to continue to reach people affected by dementia with our life changing support services and health information. These marketing campaigns could cover paid, earned, owned, and shared media – and all will contribute to a high-quality brand experience.

We have provisionally scheduled the first stage interviews for this role to take place via MS Teams on Thursday 8th October.

About you
Joining us, you’ll have a strategic focus and extensive experience of developing and deploying successful multi-channel marketing strategies and campaigns – ideally within the charity sector, health sector or government. You’ll have a demonstrable ability to translate organisational strategies and business needs into detailed marketing strategies, objectives and recommendations.

Crucially, you’ll have experience managing and motivating a high performing team in addition to experience in planning, deploying and managing marketing budgets and resources effectively. You’ll be able to work well in collaboration with other teams, with the communication and interpersonal skills required to influence and inspire across all levels.

What you’ll focus on:

- Leading upper-funnel public engagement marketing that frames dementia as a major societal and public priority, building understanding, urgency and pressure for change alongside support and campaign marketing activity.
- Overseeing the development and delivery of integrated, multi-channel marketing strategies, plans and campaigns for support services, health information, public awareness, campaigning and influencing priorities.
- Leading senior stakeholder groups to agree priorities, influence upwards and ensure marketing resource, plans and seven-figure budgets are focused on activity with the greatest potential to deliver organisational impact.
- Running key steering and working groups to identify, unblock and respond to marketing challenges and opportunities.
- Leading cross-organisational teams and agency partners to deliver joined-up activity across paid, owned, earned and shared channels, maximising integration and cross-sell opportunities.
- Line managing two marketing executives and ensuring the team operates as a high-performing, efficient function, with clear priorities, strong ways of working and shared accountability for delivery.
- Overseeing media planning and implementation for support and influencing marketing campaigns in collaboration with inhouse delivery teams and external agencies.
