This role is responsible for the practical application of the overall marketing strategy into clear, prioritised and sequenced plans across the top of the marketing funnel, working closely with colleagues across Fundraising, Comms, Digital, Policy and Brand.

Operating with significant autonomy, the role embeds planning discipline, governance and rhythm across the organisation — ensuring the right activity happens at the right time, with the right level of investment, to deliver audience and income growth.

· Translate organisational priorities into an integrated annual and quarterly marketing plan.

· Ensure planning supports growth of our defined target audience and long-term fundraising outcomes.

Master Marketing Calendar Planning & Management

· Own and maintain the single Master Marketing Calendar to ensure a clear and complete view of what ARUK is communicating externally and when.

· Sequence campaigns to avoid clashes, duplication and audience fatigue.

· Enable informed trade-offs between activity based on capacity, impact and strategic priority.

Strategic Marketing & Communications Board Programme Management

· Act as Programme Manager for the Strategic Marketing & Communications Board.

· Ensure meetings are decision-focused, well-structured and supported by clear papers.

· Track actions, outcomes and follow-through to ensure decisions translate into delivery.

Campaign Planning Quality & Governance

· Lead consistent campaign briefing, prioritisation and review processes.

· Ensure Gold and Silver tier campaigns are properly planned, resourced and evaluated.

· Improve planning quality across teams, reducing late-stage changes and rework.

Cross-Organisational Leadership

· Coordinate input from Fundraising, Comms, Brand, Digital, Policy and Insight.

· Build strong working relationships and act as a trusted planning partner to Heads and Directors.

· Enable teams to focus on delivery by providing clarity, structure and coordination.

· Collaboration and briefing of media agency, creative and external partners to ensure visibility and understanding of priorities

People management

· Accountable for team development and line management of Senior Marketing Effectiveness Officer, including career development, performance reviews.

· Ensure outputs from Senior Marketing Effectiveness Officer are translated into strategy and activated in delivery.

Key Outputs

· Respected ownership of a single, trusted marketing plan and calendar actively used across the organisation.

· Effective, well-timed campaigns and clearer prioritisation.

· Improved confidence from senior leaders in marketing decision-making.

· Proactive planning and increased scheduling of external activity that makes the most of brand halo effect.

· Cross organisational planning forums that enable decisions.

What we are looking for:

· Significant experience leading multi-channel marketing or communications planning across multiple teams or functions.

· Strong understanding and experience of marketing planning frameworks, campaign cycles, and processes that support integrated delivery.

· Experience developing and implementing planning tools such as calendars, tiering frameworks, briefing processes, and governance systems.

· Demonstrable project management and organisational skills, with proven ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines.

· Experience of facilitating cross-functional collaboration and influencing stakeholders at all levels.

· Experience managing complex workloads and bringing clarity and structure in fast-paced environments

· Highly organised, able to create systems and processes that others can easily adopt.

· Strong communication skills — able to translate strategic direction into clear, actionable plans.

· Able to build strong relationships across teams and foster a collaborative approach.

· Confident in leading meetings, workshops, and cross-team discussions.

· A proactive problem-solver who anticipates risks and identifies solutions early.

· Comfortable holding others to account for agreed ways of working, timelines, and processes.

· Attention to detail with the ability to step back and see the bigger picture.

Designed by families, for families, The Ark was opened in September 2019 by the Mayor of London. The grounds offer wheelchair accessible outdoor experiences, including a Woodland Walk through a 7-acre nature reserve, a hydrotherapy pool and overnight suites for families to be close to their loved ones. At The Ark we are able to provide Specialist Care and Nursing for babies, children and young people, supporting their full clinical, emotional, social and practical needs. We have created a space where children who are seriously unwell are accepted as they are, safe to play, explore, express themselves and build confidence.

JOB DESCRIPTION 

Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospice helps babies, children and young people who are seriously unwell, and their families, make the most of every day. The charity aspires to become a centre of clinical excellence for children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions.

We’ve been on a major upward trajectory in recent years, with more children being supported, more major hospitals being partnered with and more supporters donating. We’ve transformed from being an enthusiastic start-up delivering care in the community, to a serious player delivering major impact both in the community and at our state-of-the-art hospice building, The Ark, opened in 2019.

Philanthropy, which covers Grants, Trusts & Foundations and Major Donor fundraising streams, is pivotal to Noah’s Ark, typically accounting for around 50% of the charity’s voluntary income. This is an area of real expertise for Noah’s Ark, with much scope for further refining. The successful candidate will therefore be instrumental in taking this key income stream forward, add to an exciting portfolio and gain further training and support, working as part of a high-performing and super supportive team, ready for its next development phase.

The Grants, Trusts & Foundations Manager will work closely with and report to the Head of Philanthropy to develop the Trust pipeline, along with instrumental cross-team work on applications and reporting processes for other income streams. Whilst we work towards developing a more diverse funding model and navigate changes to the external Trust environment, sustaining and growing income from Trusts will remain vital.

The post-holder will manage a Philanthropy Officer (Trusts & Major Donors) and, together, they will be instrumental in taking the Trust programme to the next level, establishing lasting relationships with funders, securing new grants, increasing multi-year gifts and improving both quality and volume of applications and reports. They will also support the Philanthropy Officer, and the wider team, to the same end with their respective portfolios.

ABOUT YOU

You will be a highly organised, dedicated and reliable individual ready to play a significant role in income generation. An exceptional and eloquent communicator, excellent at managing your time and a natural relationship builder. You will have a collaborative mindset, and be willing to engage with colleagues across the fundraising team and wider charity to create the greatest outcomes for the children and families we support.

You will have considerable experience fundraising from grant makers and will be able to demonstrate your success with securing high value gifts and building meaningful relationships. You will have confidence in your ability to make an impact through collaborative lateral thinking. You will also support other team members with their applications, as well as acting as a key liaison with our Care team to obtain latest information about service delivery.

If you have ample experience of fundraising from Trusts, have achieved outstanding success in a short period of time or have held a key position within a Trust programme, including securing numerous significant – ideally six-figure – grants, we would love you to apply.

Please refer to the Job description for further information on this role.
