We’re looking for an assured, highly-credible Head of Communications to support our client – one of the UK’s largest & high-profile charities – on an interim basis for the next 6x months. This is the kind of uncommon interim assignment in which you’ll get to do the kind of work that directly impacts huge numbers of people and has a deep, lasting impact.
What You'll Do
- Lead communications planning, narrative development and strategy
- Line manage and support an existing team - building their confidence and output quality
- Drive awareness and fundraising communications with a sharp eye on impact messaging
- Apply strong editorial judgement across all channels
- Turn complex data into clear, compelling communications
- Represent the function at senior leadership level
What We're Looking For
- A seasoned senior comms professional - this is not a stepping-stone role
- Solid background in the charity or mission-led sector, particularly awareness and fundraising comms
- Proven experience leading and developing teams, with genuine empathy and strong line management credentials
- Highly collaborative, with the executive presence to hold the room at the most senior levels
- Confident operating in complex, matrixed organisations during periods of change
Highly flexible working model with a London office available. Day rate competitive for the level.
