Marketing communications jobs in manchester

Imagine a role where your creativity and collaborative approach help connect supporters to a powerful mission, shifting the dial in the food and farming education sector so more children facing disadvantage can discover their connection with the land that sustains us all.

We’re seeking a skilled communicator and digital storyteller equally comfortable crafting social media posts, drafting briefing notes, or capturing and editing film content. You’ll be passionate about amplifying underrepresented voices and supporting social change through engaging communications that inform, connect and inspire.

You will work closely with colleagues across the organisation to drive engagement, raise our profile, and grow our digital presence through impactful multimedia storytelling. Your work will help bring the voices of children, families and communities to partners and supporters nationwide, placing The Country Trust’s mission at the heart of national conversations about wellbeing, education and tackling the poverty of opportunity.

This role involves travel and occasional overnight stays (with mileage reimbursed) across England and North Wales. While we prioritise public transport use, this is not always feasible. Therefore, a valid driving licence is essential.

Key Responsibilities:

Communications & Influence

• Develop and deliver strategic, multi-channel communications that translate complex ideas into compelling messages to increase our influence across media, policy, and partner networks.

Multimedia Storytelling

• Create and deliver impactful, accessible multimedia content that amplifies beneficiary voices, supports advocacy, and aligns with our brand and strategic goals.

Stakeholder Engagement & Partnerships​

• Develop and tailor impactful communications and materials that strengthen partnerships, engage funders, and support collaborative initiatives with partner organisations.

Press, Media & Digital Oversight

• Support on press and social media communications by managing media relationships, crafting timely content, and optimising outreach to amplify our advocacy and campaigns.

About The Country Trust

The Country Trust believes every child should discover first-hand the connections between the food they eat, their own health and the health of the planet. We are the UK’s leading educational charity on a mission to connect children with the land that sustains us all.

When we don’t understand where food comes from, how it’s grown, or have the chance to spend time outdoors, there’s a significant knock-on effect for our health and the environment. Through nearly 50 years of programme delivery, we know children facing disadvantage often have the most to gain from this connection but are least able to access it.

Through food, farming and countryside experiences, our mission is to empower children to be confident, curious, and create change in their lives and the world around them — so that they and society thrive.

This is a new role within our Communications and Engagement team, with responsibility for helping share our message that disabled people should be able to make the journeys that we want, with confidence, ease and dignity.

Transport for All’s communications are key to our work. We are a small but mighty charity. Each year we speak to hundreds of journalists, reach thousands of people through our website, and engage with hundreds of thousands of people through our social media feeds.

Our highly successful newsletter reaches disabled people, the transport industry, and decision makers. Our award-winning campaigns team creates compelling narratives that challenge and change systems.

Over the last few years our reach and membership has grown in size and profile. This role will support a continuation of that growth, producing engaging content that connects with people, attracting new members and supporters, ensuring people can access our advice services, and helping us achieve justice in society – where disabled people’s voices are amplified, and our message is heard and acted upon.

This role is open to disabled applicants only.

Please note – This role has a genuine occupational requirement of lived experience of disability. This explicitly includes those of us who are Deaf, neurodivergent, chronically ill, have a mental health condition, have age-related impairments, and people with both visible and non-visible impairments. If you do not meet this requirement, and state this in your application, you will not be shortlisted for interview.

We’re looking for a motivated and relationship-driven Project Coordinator (Growth & Engagement) based across Greater Manchester to help us build and sustain impactful partnerships that will grow the reach and visibility of our Dog Champion Scheme.

At Street Paws, we believe that no one should be forced to choose between a safe place to stay and the pet they love. For people experiencing homelessness, a pet can be a vital lifeline — providing emotional support, a sense of safety, and unconditional companionship in the most difficult circumstances.

Sadly, most accommodation services do not allow pets, leaving people with an impossible decision: stay with their pet and remain homeless, or enter housing alone. At Street Paws, we work to remove that barrier through compassionate, practical action.

We support homeless pet owners by:

• Providing free veterinary care and preventative treatment

• Offering essentials like leads, coats, food, and bedding

• Training hostels to become pet-friendly through our Dog Champion Scheme

• Advocating for inclusive housing and service access

Since launching our Dog Champion Scheme, we’ve trained hundreds of hostel staff, supported dozens of services to welcome pets, and helped keep hundreds of people and animals safely together.

About the Role

This role is perfect for someone who is passionate about social justice, inclusion, and the human–animal bond — and who is confident in building connections with frontline organisations, community services, and supporters.

As Project Coordinator (Growth & Engagement), you’ll focus on building relationships with new hostels, expanding awareness of our work, and promoting our training programme and online learning platform. You'll also work with existing partners to make sure they feel supported and are continuing to deliver on their commitments to pet-friendly care.

Key Responsibilities

• Promote and grow the Dog Champion Scheme by identifying and engaging new partner hostels

• Build and maintain strong relationships with hostel staff, local authorities, housing providers, and referral networks

• Introduce and guide partners through the onboarding and training process

• Deliver clear, engaging communication about the benefits and expectations of becoming a pet-friendly service

• Support the delivery and monitoring of online training through our learning platform

• Collect feedback and stories from the hostels we work with to showcase impact and promote the scheme

• Represent Street Paws at local events, forums, and outreach opportunities across the North of England

• Work closely with the wider team to align delivery with Street Paws’ core values and strategic goals

• Support other areas of our work where needed, including volunteer engagement and public awareness campaigns

About You

We’re looking for someone who is:

• A great communicator – confident talking to frontline services, potential partners, and wider community networks

• Skilled at building trust and relationships with people from all backgrounds

• Organised and proactive – able to manage your own workload, travel when needed, and meet project goals

• Creative and people-focused, with an eye for spotting opportunities to grow and share our impact

• Committed to inclusion and compassionate support – you’ll be representing a charity that’s non-judgemental, trauma-informed, and rooted in dignity for all

Experience working in the charity, housing, or community sector is a plus, but not essential. What matters most is that you believe in our mission and want to be part of positive, person-centred change.

What We Offer

• A flexible, remote-working role with the opportunity to travel and meet partners across the region

• A supportive, values-led team environment

• Opportunities to grow with us, shape the role, and influence how we engage new partners

• The chance to make a tangible difference for people and pets who are often excluded from services
