Dementia UK has an opportunity for a Campaigns Officer to play a key role in delivering our influencing strategy to help transform dementia care, in line with our 2025-2030 organisational strategy.
As part of an ambitious and collaborative team, you will support the development and delivery of impactful campaigns that engage supporters, influence decision-makers, and amplify the voices of people affected by dementia.
Working closely with the Campaigns Manager and colleagues across Policy, Campaigns and Public Affairs and Marketing and Communications, you will support the delivery of effective campaign strategies, compelling communications and supporter mobilisation activity across online and offline channels.
Alongside our existing Campaigns Officer, you will be a key contact for our campaigners, managing day-to-day communications and helping to build an engaged and active campaigner community. You will lead on developing our offline campaigning offer, working with people with lived experience of dementia across the UK to empower them to take meaningful action to improve dementia care. This will include creating campaign toolkits and resources.
You will have experience delivering influencing campaigns across online and offline channels and building strong relationships with supporters and stakeholders. You will be confident in tailoring messages for different audiences and communicating sensitively about complex issues relating to dementia.
You will be highly organised, able to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment and motivated by the opportunity to help improve the lives of people affected by dementia through campaigning.
If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.
