Job description

Are you an experienced Media or PR professional looking for the next step up in your career?

With homelessness at record highs, St Mungo’s are looking for a politically engaged, creative, and driven Press and PR Officer to amplify our frontline work and influence efforts to end homelessness for good.

You’ll join a small, dynamic team of three and lead all media and PR activity linked to our policy, research, and influencing work. This is a pivotal role in our busy press office, building strong relationships with political and social affairs journalists to share compelling stories from one of the UK’s leading homelessness charities.

In this role, you will:

  • Respond to varied media requests, from service visits to commentary on major Government announcements like the National Plan to End Homelessness.
  • Create impactful, politically savvy press materials, press releases, opinion pieces, responses to breaking news and letters to editors.
  • Advise senior leaders on policy-related PR, providing briefings and practice interviews.
  • Use St Mungo’s data creatively to tell stories about issues affecting people experiencing homelessness.
  • Support ministerial visits and collaborate with government and sector partners to showcase our frontline work.

About you

You might already be working as a Senior Press and PR officer looking for a new challenge or looking for the next step in your media career. To be successful in this exciting role you will be someone who:

  • Thrives under-pressure and can juggle multiple and competing demands, while prioritising your own workload.
  • Is a team player who is happy to take ownership of projects and step up to support colleagues at all levels  as required.
  • Works with a solution focused approach who can see the ‘big picture’ and problem solve in a pressurised environment.  
  • Has excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Has experience of delivering proactive PR and communications campaigns and the ability to deal with crisis communications.

In this role you will be required to work flexibly for at least 2 days per week from our Central Office in London. This allows for training, in person collaboration, team building,  and other relationship building opportunities. We support a flexible approach to work with opportunities for agile working for the rest of your week; from home, or other St Mungo’s London or regional locations. 

While our Central Office is currently based in Tower Hill, London we plan to relocate in the summer of 2026 to a new space in Farringdon, London.
