Job Details
Strengthen the voice, influence and impact of thousands of people affected by spinal cord injury
We are looking for a dynamic individual to take on a pivotal leadership role at a transformative moment in our journey.
Over the past four years, our communications and campaigns team has grown in reach, impact and ambition. With a strong media presence, a network of influential ambassadors and a fully implemented CRM system, we've built a powerful platform for change. Our outgoing head of communications and campaigns has played a vital role in this success and now we are ready to take the next step.
As we move toward our Strategy 2030, we are evolving. The campaigns team has matured into a distinct force and we are now creating the foundations for a separate Public Affairs function. This transition opens up an exciting opportunity for a new head of communications to lead a focused, high-performing team and shape the voice of the Spinal Injuries Association (SIA) for the future.
We represent a diverse community of over 21,000 members, but we know that more than 100,000 people across the UK are living with spinal cord injury. We want to reach them all. Communications will be central to how we equitably mobilise our members, engage our partners and overcome barriers of poverty, geography and services. To help deliver our promise: a fulfilled life for everyone affected by spinal cord injury.
If you're a strategic thinker, a compelling communicator and a collaborative leader ready to make a lasting impact - we'd love to hear from you.
