About Kinship

We are Kinship. The leading kinship care charity in England and Wales. We’re here for kinship carers – friends or family who step up to raise a child when their parents aren’t able to. 

Together, let’s commit to change for kinship families.

About the role

This is an exciting and pivotal leadership role at the heart of Kinship’s digital transformation. You’ll lead a talented and ambitious team to deliver innovative digital products, accessible content, and outstanding user experiences that support kinship carers and strengthen our organisational impact.

Kinship is growing rapidly. We are expanding our reach and digital capabilities, and our digital platforms are central to this change. In 2024, we launched a new website that brings together all our content and services under one roof, and introduced a new Kinship Compass postcode search feature. This is a national tool that helps kinship carers find and navigate local and national support, like their kinship local offer, local peer support groups and training. 

Alongside this, we have been developing a new AI-powered tool to help kinship carers get the information they need quickly and accurately, 24/7. This role will lead the evolution of these digital products, ensuring they are safe, ethical, data-driven and continuously improved to meet the needs of kinship carers.

You’ll play a key role in the Department for Education funded national Training and Support Service, helping kinship carers easily access and book high-quality training. You’ll also oversee the content design in collaboration with internal and external subject experts and kinship carers themselves.

This is a role for a digital leader who is both strategic and hands-on. You should be able to balance innovation with delivery, and big-picture thinking with strong governance. You’ll champion inclusive, accessible and co-produced design, helping Kinship use digital to deliver more impact, insight and empowerment for kinship families.

Key responsibilities include:

• Provide digital leadership across the organisation, increasing capability, confidence and collaboration. 

• Continue to develop and deliver Kinship’s digital strategy and product roadmap, covering the website, Kinship Compass, Kinship Minds, AI tool and other digital tools (excluding marketing and social media). 

• Ensure our content design approach is consistently applied — using evidence, data and co-production to create content that is: 

  • informed by user need 

  • written in plain English and inclusive language 

  • trauma-informed and strengths-based 

  • tested, iterated and continuously improved 

• Collaborate across teams to ensure digital products support fundraising, campaigning, research and service delivery where appropriate. 

• Build relationships with sector peers, tech partners and funders to share best practice and explore innovation. 

• Embed co-production with kinship carers in all digital design and development, including Kinship Minds content and UX design. 

• Ensure induction, documentation and systems support efficient and sustainable working. 

Essential knowledge, abilities, skills and experience includes:

• Significant senior digital leadership experience covering strategy, delivery, KPIs, budgeting and reporting. 
• Successful track record leading mid–large scale website and digital development projects. 
• Credible technical expertise for a senior role, including SEO, analytics and optimisation. 
• Excellent project management experience and commitment to taking accountability for tools like Asana and Notion. 
• Positive, solutions-focused mindset with a commitment to innovation and improvement. 
• Substantial experience leading dispersed teams, including wellbeing, performance and professional development 
• Experience designing and delivering digital services for families in crisis or underserved communities. 
• A real commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion within your role. 

What we’ll offer you 

Kinship offers 30 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rata for part-time). We have an excellent wellbeing offer including the Employee Assistance Programme and clinical supervision. We will invest in your professional development with training and career development opportunities.

Kinship is committed to championing equality, diversity and inclusion.  We believe our work is greatly enhanced by the varied backgrounds, experiences and views represented within our teams.  We aim to create inclusive teams, celebrate differences and encourage everyone to join us and be their true self at work.

Job Information:

It’s unacceptable that where you live or your financial situation impacts the end-of-life care you receive. Too many disadvantaged people and people facing financial hardship can't access the support they need.

This new role will bring strategic direction and thought leadership to our work ensuring that people experiencing socio-economic disadvantage can access high-quality hospice care, when they need it.

We are looking for someone with sound, technical knowledge of the relationship between socio-economic deprivation and health outcomes. Someone with experience working on projects that use evidence and research-based approaches to address health inequity at scale. You will have the skills and expertise to help us work at a system-level to transform practice in hospice care, as well as increase reach. 

You’ll be supported by teams across our organisation to ensure Hospice UK collects the data and evidence required to inform our policy work in this area, and help transform hospice practice. 

Perhaps you’re working in palliative care already - or you might bring strong health equity expertise from another speciality. 

Either way, you’ll become part of a close, 17-strong Programmes Team at Hospice UK. We work together and alongside external experts, to design and deliver evidence-based programmes, projects and events, which help hospices provide the very best care in their communities. 

You’ll find lots more information about the role and team in the Candidate Information Pack (available on our website to download).
