About Us
This is a fantastic opportunity to work at a leading Hospice who aspires to a world in which all dying people and those close to them have access to care and support, whenever and wherever they need it. St Christopher’s Hospice was founded in 1967 by Dame Cicely Saunders and became the first hospice of the modern hospice movement. We provide invaluable care and support to over 7,500 people across the five London Boroughs of Bromley, Croydon, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark.
Your new role
This is an exciting opportunity to join our marketing and communications team who lead on the promotion of our clinical services, St Christopher’s CARE (our education offer), fundraising appeals, our charity stores and commercial partnerships.
As Marketing Assistant, you’ll be super organised, adept at simultaneously managing incoming enquiries alongside ongoing projects and have a keen eye for detail to stop any mistakes getting through.
Being a central part of our team, you’ll pull together up-coming promotional activities and ensure these materials are rolled out across our hospice sites and on our intranet. You’ll also get the chance to be creative, writing social posts and intranet articles. It’s the perfect role if you’re looking to gain marketing experience across multiple channels.
You’ll also be a keen team player – pulling together schedules and plans to keep marketing activity on track and rolling up your sleeves and getting stuck in to a diverse range of tasks. But don’t worry, we’ll be on hand to support you.
Some of the main responsibilities of this role include:
- Meet with patients, families, staff, volunteers and supporters to capture their stories and experiences for use across all our channels – this might be through written or video content.
- Build strong working relationships with departments across the organisation – you’ll often be the first point of call for marketing requests and support so a welcoming and supportive approach is essential.
- Monitor the main communications inbox responding to all requests in a timely manner and allocating incoming work across the team.
- Ensure all materials around the hospice sites and our 24 shops are up-to-date and on brand this includes replenishing patient information materials, staff noticeboards, public-facing noticeboards and TV screens.
- Ensure all content on The Vine (our staff intranet) is up-to-date and Important Announcements are added, as required. This also includes writing and publishing engaging news articles.
About you:
- Hold a good level of general education including English
- Have excellent attention to detail – you’re the one that picks up mistakes in articles and on posters and wonders why no one stopped it getting through!
- Possess excellent organisational, project and time management skills
- Have experience of using social media to fulfil an aim or objective
- Possess good interpersonal skills and the ability to work well with staff at all levels.
If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you!

- Access to excellent training and development opportunities
- Season ticket loans
