You will play a central role in delivering the marketing and ticketing strategy for The Queen’s Reading Room Festival and other major events, ensuring we meet ambitious audience and revenue targets. You will help convert major media moments into sustained follower and email subscriber growth and be responsible for improving website journeys and sign-up performance, using analytics to drive action.

Alongside commercial growth, you will work closely with our Impact Manager, supporting them to craft compelling stories about the charity’s reach and outcomes — particularly across our growing grassroots partnerships — ensuring our communications clearly demonstrate meaningful and measurable social impact.

This role combines strategic thinking with operational delivery. It would suit a confident, creative communications professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is comfortable working with senior stakeholders and high-profile partners.
