Help us make a difference to children's lives.

The Osteopathic Centre for Children (OCC) is a specialist healthcare charity providing expert osteopathic treatment to babies, children, young people and pregnant women, regardless of their ability to pay.

We're looking for an enthusiastic, outgoing and proactive Community Engagement & Marketing Manager to help raise awareness of our services and build lasting relationships across London.

This is not a desk-based marketing role. We're looking for someone who enjoys meeting people, developing partnerships and representing a charity that changes lives.

Working closely with the Managing Director and Fundraising Manager, you'll help deliver our marketing and community engagement activities while line managing our Digital Marketing Officer, who is responsible for our day-to-day digital marketing, website, social media, education promotion and fundraising communications.

What you'll be doing

• Building relationships with GP practices, hospitals, health visitors, schools, nurseries and community organisations.
• Developing partnerships with local businesses and charities.
• Promoting the charity at networking events, exhibitions and community activities.
• Organising talks, presentations and awareness events.
• Helping increase awareness of our services and encouraging patient referrals.
• Coordinating the delivery of our marketing and communications activities.
• Line managing and supporting our Digital Marketing Officer.
• Monitoring marketing activity and reporting progress to the Managing Director.

About you

• Friendly, confident and enjoys meeting new people.
• An excellent communicator with strong relationship-building skills.
• Organised, proactive and able to use their own initiative.
• Experienced in community engagement, marketing, communications, business development or partnership working.
• Comfortable managing projects and supervising staff.
• Passionate about making a positive difference.

Experience within the charity, healthcare or education sector would be an advantage but is not essential.

What we offer

• A rewarding role where you can make a real impact on children's lives.
• A supportive and friendly working environment.
• Flexible working within a 21-hour week.
• Pension scheme.
• Reimbursement of reasonable travel expenses incurred whilst undertaking community engagement activities.
• Opportunity for the role to become permanent following the initial 12-month contract, subject to organisational needs and performance.
