If so, this role leading our Marketing & Communications team is for you.
At Cyrenians we tackle the causes and consequences of homelessness. We take a values-led and relationships-based approach to delivering our services because we understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to supporting people towards more positive and stable futures.
Relationships are at the heart of everything we do at Cyrenians, with those we support and those who support us too.
With a new CEO having just joined us, it’s an exciting time to be in communications at Cyrenians. Our team covers all marketing, including in-house video production, as well as policy, press and public affairs.
With a variety of services and almost 200 colleagues across several locations, the need for good internal communications is high. And, of course, these services and colleagues, as well as our donors, fundraisers and volunteers also deserve marketing expertise and guidance.
This role, as a fixed-term opportunity, will drive forward our fundraising strategy and have responsibility for leading the team to deliver in a way that is collaborative, reliable and measurable. Close relationships with our Fundraising and service teams are integral to delivery.
The role has a strong focus on nurturing, developing and championing the team, together with using data and insight to drive our activity.
You’ll be an experienced marketing leader who can hit the ground running, quickly building relationships and sustaining performance. You’ll bring a calm, collaborative approach to leadership—supporting and reassuring your team while building strong connections with colleagues and external stakeholders.
You’ll understand the importance of financial and performance reporting and be confident using data and insights to inform decisions and shape activity.
As the lead for internal communications, you’ll engage confidently with the leadership team and CEO, shaping and delivering clear, effective plans.
Like us, you’ll be values-led and relationship-focused in everything you do.
Working closely with your peers in Fundraising, Corporate Services, Community & Enterprise and our delivery services, you’ll be warmly supported by those who share your passion to tackle homelessness and its root causes. Cyrenians is a place of work where people quickly feel at home and we want your experience with us to be as fruitful and enjoyable as possible.
You will be supported to attend training and networking events to deepen your knowledge of the issues surrounding homelessness and social exclusion.
Closing date is Monday 27th July at 12 noon
Interviews will be held in Edinburgh w/c Monday 3rd August
CV's will not be accepted
