Derian House is the place where you can make a real difference, as we support our colleagues and volunteers to provide this amazing service for children and families. It's a great place to enhance and develop your career as we are committed to investing in training to support our people and their aspirations.

Help us tell stories that change lives

Every day, our children's hospice provides expert care, support, and moments of joy for babies, children, young people, and their families facing life-limiting and life-threatening conditions. Behind every family we support is a story of courage, love, and resilience.

We are seeking an exceptional Head of Communications and Marketing to lead our communications, marketing, brand, and digital engagement strategy, helping us increase awareness, deepen supporter engagement, and strengthen our impact across the communities we serve.

This is an exciting opportunity for a creative and strategic communications leader who is passionate about using the power of storytelling to inspire action, build trust, and support a vital charitable mission.

What you’ll be doing

As a senior leader, you will develop and deliver an integrated communications and marketing strategy that enhances our reputation, supports income generation, and positions the hospice as a leading voice in children's palliative care.

Significant experience in communications, marketing, public relations, or brand leadership.
A proven track record of developing successful integrated communications strategies.
Exceptional storytelling, content, and media engagement skills.
Experience leading digital communications and audience engagement.
Leadership and people management experience.
Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills.
The ability to work with sensitivity and professionalism when communicating complex or emotional stories.
A genuine commitment to improving the lives of children and families facing extraordinary challenges.

Why join us?

At Derian House, you’ll be part of a passionate and supportive team where your work has real purpose. The Communications and marketing strategy will help us reach more families, raise vital funds, and make a meaningful impact.

Benefits:

We offer 33 days holidays per year, (including bank holidays), increasing with length of service
