York Carers Centre is a registered charity enabling unpaid carers of all ages throughout York to access a range of information, advice and support.


We have an exciting opportunity for a creative communication professional, looking to use their skills to maintain and raise the profile of York Carers Centre.


Acting as ‘branding champion’ you will ensure consistency across all York Carers Centre communications. Reporting to the CEO you will produce monthly e-bulletins and a quarterly newsletter, maintain and improve content on our website, print publications, manage social networking sites, and maintain effective networks with local and national media.


Your excellent communication skills will be matched by your ability to maximise opportunities to raise the profile of York Carers Centre, and to inspire community giving/donations. Working alongside our fundraiser you will support existing and new community fundraising events. The role requires excellent time management and organisational skills, and an ability to work to deadlines.


If you are self-motivated, a good team player but able to work independently and exercise judgement, possess excellent communication and engagement skills, have demonstrable experience, and would enjoy working with a friendly dedicated supportive team, then we’d love to hear from you.


We are in the process of developing a new website. At present it is unclear the stage this will be at when the postholder starts. We welcome a discussion at interview regarding initial additional hours to compete this piece of work.


In return we’ll offer you:

· The flexibility to shape your role and make a notable contribution to our work in making a difference to the lives of carers in York

· A friendly supportive working environment

· Generous Annual Leave

· Great flexible hybrid working options

· Learning and development opportunities

· Contributory pension scheme


The post is subject to an enhanced DBS check.
