You will lead the development and implementation of marketing and communications strategies to enhance our brand, communicate effectively with target audiences, and oversee integrated campaigns. You will also craft inspiring messaging and content that drives action.

Providing leadership and direction, you will support your team to achieve their objectives and optimize performance across all channels.

About You

If you have significant experience leading a marketing and communications team to meet ambitious targets, we would love to hear from you. You should be organized, possess excellent communication skills, and have experience across various online and offline channels.

Experience in charity marketing is not essential but is preferred, and an understanding of applying your skills within a charity context is advantageous.

• Wellbeing support, including employee assistance, counselling, financial, and legal support
• Access to a 24/7 online GP and other health services

• Cycle to work, technology, mobile, and will-writing schemes
• Discounted gym memberships and shopping discounts, including 25% off all purchases from Ty Hafan Retail shops
• Hybrid working and free, secured onsite parking

Ty Hafan's Ambition

We believe no family should face a child's short life alone. We support families through our hospice, community services, hospitals, and homes, ensuring they are not alone in their journey.

Our vision is a Wales where every child with a life-shortening condition lives a fulfilling life with the necessary support. Our purpose is to provide free, compassionate care throughout the child's life and beyond. Our values include demonstrating compassion, providing excellent service, working together, and taking ownership.
