Emmaus UK is recruiting a Regional Communications Officer to support Emmaus communities and groups across the South of England with all aspects of external communications. The role will be delivered through an agreed service level agreement and aligned with the wider Emmaus communications strategy.

Emmaus UK is looking for a Regional Communications Officer to join its communications team.

Our team of Regional Communications Officers supports Emmaus communities and groups to raise their profile and connect with supporters. In this role, you will work closely with up to four Emmaus charities, identifying their communications needs and planning and delivering activity to help them achieve their goals.

This is a hybrid role, offering the flexibility to work from home or from within an Emmaus community.

Building and maintaining strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders will be key to this role. Regular travel to your allocated communities is essential, typically at least once a week. This will initially be Emmaus Norfolk & Waveney, Emmaus Colchester and Emmaus Suffolk, so we are looking for a candidate based in Norwich, Colchester, Ipswich or the surrounding areas. You will also attend quarterly team meetings, usually held in Birmingham, although these may occasionally take place elsewhere in the UK and may require an overnight stay.

This is a full-time role, Monday to Friday, 37.5 hours a week.

Emmaus is a unique, secular organisation supporting people affected by homelessness and social exclusion. There are currently 29 Emmaus communities across the UK, stretching from Glasgow to Dover and Norfolk to South Wales. Collectively, the Emmaus Federation supports more than 1,000 people with experience of homelessness

We are looking for someone with a strong communications skillset and at least two years’ experience in a busy communications, public relations or marketing role. While not essential, knowledge of homelessness and the charity sector would be an advantage.

Creativity and passion are essential. You will have a broad range of communications skills, enjoy seeing your ideas come to life and be keen to continue developing your experience within a national homelessness charity.

This is an exciting and rewarding opportunity for someone who enjoys working with different people and communities. The successful candidate will be organised, adaptable and able to manage multiple projects, relationships and campaigns.

If you are passionate about making a difference and creating long-lasting impact, this is the perfect time to join Emmaus UK.

To apply for this role, download the recruitment documents below and complete the job application form which you will find below. Please return your application form via email to jobs@emmaus.org.uk by Tuesday, 26 May 2026.

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to an interview via Microsoft Teams during the week commencing 8 June 2026. As part of the interview process, candidates will also be asked to complete a set of tasks.

If you would like to arrange an informal discussion about the role, please email us our email address is in the application pack.
