Jobs in Sunderland, Regno Unito

Releaf Dispensary Ltd is a leading medical cannabis clinic committed to providing high-quality, safe, and effective cannabis-based treatments. Headquartered in the UK, we aim to enhance the quality of life for our patients through innovative solutions and outstanding patient service. We're a fast-growing team of passionate professionals on a mission to put patients back in control of their health journey. We've seen first‑hand how alternative treatments can change lives, and we're proud to be at the forefront of that change.

We're looking for a creative, detail‑oriented Communications Executive to join our busy, growing team. This is a remote‑first role, with occasional in‑person meetings.

You'll help shape how Releaf communicates with patients, journalists, and the wider public — bringing our brand to life across multiple channels. This is a busy, varied role where we'll provide full training and ongoing support, but you should be comfortable working independently and managing your own workflow. Ideally you'll have 2+ years experience from a healthcare, technology or B2C Ecomm role and be confident with working remotely.

• Familiarity with email or CRM platforms (e.g. Klaviyo or similar)
• Organised, proactive, and able to manage multiple deadlines
• A genuine interest in healthcare and patient‑centred communication
• Comfortable working independently in a remote environment

• Be part of a fast‑growing healthtech company making a real difference in patients' lives
• Work within a supportive, ambitious team where your contributions have immediate impact
