Community Engagement and Partnerships Manager

Compassion in Dying supports people to prepare for the end of life: how to talk about it, plan for it and record their wishes. We have supported more than 56,000 people to consider and record their wishes through our nurse-led information line, digital services and community engagement work.

We know that considering what you want, and recording those wishes, reduces unwanted and invasive treatments being given at the end of life, reduces unnecessary hospital admissions, and makes it more likely that people will receive care aligned with their priorities and goals.

However, successive policy reports have identified that people who are already at risk of health inequalities are less likely to receive care aligned with their values and priorities.  Many communities who experience health inequalities also face additional barriers to accessing mainstream support, including the effects of structural racism.  We also know that people with higher levels of support needs require more help to consider and record their end of life wishes and that often this support is not available. This means that people from certain communities or who need more help to plan ahead have a worse experience at the end of life.

Compassion in Dying is seeking a Community Engagement and Partnerships Manager to lead our existing community engagement work and to develop new, impactful projects.

By working with communities known to experience health inequalities, Compassion in Dying’s community engagement work aims to ensure that these groups have access to support to document their wishes and priorities for treatment and care, and to proactively share our learning so that these approaches can be used and adapted by others.

Compassion in Dying is committed to being an equal opportunities employer and we welcome applications regardless of race, religion and belief, age, gender or gender identity, sexual orientation, disability and marital status. Appointment to this role will be subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This will be undertaken once the successful candidate is in receipt of a conditional offer.

Research has given us life-saving kidney transplants, dialysis machines that filter the blood when the kidneys fail, and drugs to keep us going. But these treatments come at a cost. They can be gruelling, confining, relentless. A transplant is not a cure, they rarely last a lifetime.

Kidney disease still affects three million people in the UK. And one million of those don’t know they are at risk. That’s three million people who are someone’s parents, grandparents, children, friends.

And kidney failure is rising, as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes and obesity.

That’s why their work is more essential than ever.
