The Communications Manager is a new role, overseeing the Marketing, PR and Communications strategy for the Charity.

The hospital charity has been successful in driving internal communications amongst its hospitals, but is now seeking to raise its profile across the Midlands, showcasing what the Charity already funds and what it wants to raise money to fund in the future.

As the Communications Manager you will lead a small team in devising multichannel communications and supporter journey marketing campaigns that help raise awareness of our work, build our digital communities, and help drive income generation through targeted engagement activity. 

You will work closely with teams across the charity and our hospitals to ensure that our marketing and communications' needs are met and that we become known as an organisation which delivers innovative, engaging and effective campaigns and communications initiatives in support of our beneficiaries.

As a professional with experience of digital fundraising, communications, marketing (including digital marketing), social media, supporter engagement, brand development and media, your remit will include working closely with fundraising colleagues to develop, deliver and evaluate a schedule of donor acquisition and retention campaigns and to identity engagement opportunities across all marketing channels.

The ideal candidate will bring not only the gravitas and innovation to proactively lead a team to deliver exceptional results but also the creativity and ambition to see the Charity's brand increase across the Midlands.

We are looking for a senior fundraiser to join the team and help to grow our fundraising strategy and drive us to the next level.

Whilst you will be responsible for shaping and delivering the fundraising programme for The Giles' Trust, you will also have the advantage of being part of the wider University Hospitals Birmingham Charity team - the official NHS Charity for the Queen Elizabeth, Heartlands, Good Hope and Solihull hospitals.

The post holder will be employed by University Hospitals Birmingham Charity and will report to a Senior Fundraising Manager, as well as reporting to The Giles' Trust Committee.
