Summary
We are Versus Arthritis. We are fundraisers, programme managers, volunteers, administrators, press officers and accountants all doing everything we can to push back against arthritis. Together, we’ll continue to develop breakthrough treatments, campaign relentlessly for arthritis to be seen as a priority and support each other whenever we need it.

The post-holder will lead the Media Officers in developing stories and investigations that expose the injustices faced by people living with arthritis, alongside research findings, statistics and comment.
The Strategic Communications team is responsible for developing an inspiring and engaging brand narrative with compelling customer journeys across all our engagement and communications activity. The team will build strong relationships across the charity, to drive a consensus around our core message, designed to deliver our strategic objectives. The team will ensure our message and brand narrative is applied across owned, paid and earned channels, using technical skills and channel expertise.
