You’ll understand how effective PR and marketing can both protect and enhance a charity’s brand while also supporting income generation and engagement goals. You’ll bring the confidence and experience to balance these priorities and work collaboratively to achieve them.

Confident working across multiple audiences and channels, you’ll combine creative storytelling with data-driven insight to deliver measurable impact.

As a national charity, based in Surrey, but represented across the UK via a developing branch network (often volunteer led) you will need to have experience of working with a large and diverse range of passionate and knowledgeable stakeholders. 

This is a role for a person who enjoys variety, autonomy, and responsibility — someone who can balance strategic thinking with a willingness to get stuck in and make things happen. In return, you’ll find a supportive, collaborative team and the chance to see the direct results of your work: more people understanding, supporting, and opening their homes to retired  greyhounds.

Salary range £38k - £40k

The role is full time, located at the National Greyhound Centre, Horley with occasional travel to branches across the UK.

Occasional working from home when appropriate.

No Agencies please.
