About us
Crisis is the national charity for homeless people. We know that homelessness is not inevitable. We know that together we can end it.

About the role
It’s an exciting time to join Crisis’ marketing team. With a renewed brand purpose and a new marketing strategy, and as we prepare for the publication of our plan to end homelessness in spring 2018, we’re looking for someone to help us engage key audiences with our solutions to homelessness.

As Marketing and Brand Manager, you will be responsible for implementing the marketing strategy, building our brand and ensuring our approach is rooted in audience insight.

You’ll manage a team of talented marketing officers and designers, as well as a network of freelancers and agencies, to deliver high-impact communications campaigns and materials. You will work with teams across Crisis, from fundraising to services, to deliver marketing objectives and ensure a consistent brand experience across all touchpoints.

This is a maternity cover post for 12 months, with the possibility of extension.

About you
To be successful in this role you will be an experienced marketer, passionate about using insights to inform communications and adept at building strong cross-functional relationships. You’ll have demonstrable experience of managing and developing a brand.

Skilled at managing people, agencies and projects, with excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities, you’ll also bring creativity and experience of managing a design or creative services function.

You’ll be excited about engaging public audiences in social issues, and have strong experience of working on integrated communications campaigns or projects.

As a member of the team you will have access to a wide range of employee benefits including:

· Interest free loans to purchase a train season ticket or a bike or for a deposit to secure a tenancy
