We’re looking for someone who’s excited by a challenging role that stretches their skills, builds new ones, and offers real variety. You’ll help align the story of what we do with how we use our resources, embedding our branding across all communications and bringing our mission to life. We actively encourage personal and professional development through training, mentoring, and hands-on experience.
ECHO is a charity that is independent from but works closely with the NHS Guy’s and St Thomas’ heart care network (47 hospitals) to support children affected by a heart condition and their families. We’re seeking a highly organised, results-oriented team player, with excellent writing and content-creation skills, to build active engagement with our community of families, professionals and fundraising supporters. This role will suit someone confident to take initiative who enjoys teamwork, creativity, variety, and ‘putting jobs to bed’, who can balance the many short-term deadlines of two different focus areas with some longer-term pieces of project work.
As a small organisation with programmes of family support, youth work, corporate and individual fundraising, we offer the successful applicant exposure to build skills, from concept to delivery, on a wide range of project areas.
Key tasks
Communications (60% of time)
- Deliver engaging communications across social media, media outlets, newsletters, and publications by leading on ECHO’s Communications Plan and content creation.
- Strengthen ECHO’s brand and visibility by applying and championing consistent brand and style guidelines.
- Support fundraising and storytelling by producing e-newsletters, reports, and working with a designer on our annual newsletter to showcase impact.
- Inform and empower families by keeping ECHO’s website and private Facebook group updated with reliable, relatable content, and collaborating with partners to produce patient information resources.
Administration (40% of time)
- Deliver memorable experiences for families and young people by managing event logistics, handling enquiries, coordinating entertainment, and ensuring smooth registration and follow-up.
- Strengthen supporter relationships by coordinating the timely sending of T-shirts, certificates, thank-you letters, and other engagement materials.
- Enhance team efficiency by drafting meeting agendas, circulating papers, taking accurate minutes, and keeping the office environment well-organised and well-stocked.
- Provide high-level administrative support to the CEO by managing day-to-day tasks with sensitivity, discretion, and attention to detail.
This list does not cover every aspect of the role but will give you a flavour of the combination of taking a lead and hands-on work the job requires. Your days will be busy but controlled! There’ll be a lot to pack in, but, as the only comms and admin person, you’ll have scope to prioritise where your time and focus will get the best results. You’ll work across all our teams gathering, packaging, and sharing their news and information and supporting them to deliver with efficiency and high impact. If you like a ‘no-two-days-are-the-same’ environment and the ‘mucking in together’ dimension of a smaller charity, ECHO could suit you well.
