Communications and Engagement Officer

HOURS: Minimum of 30-hours per week

CONTRACT TYPE: Permanent

LOCATION: Jersey Hospice Care

DEPARTMENT: Income Generation

CLOSING DATE: 14th June 2023

Jersey Hospice Care are seeking to appoint a Communications and Engagement Officer to join our Income Generation Team on a permanent basis. 

The postholder is required to develop powerful and compelling communications across various media that highlight both Hospice’s vital role in the design and delivery of palliative care in Jersey and to support our fundraising and retail teams in driving vital income growth. 

With the island’s population growing and ageing, the need for Hospice services will only increase and it is vital both that patients and families who could benefit from our services are fully aware of what we provide and that our need to grow income from fundraising and retail stores, as well as Government, is fully and appropriately shared and supported.

The ideal candidate will be an enthusiastic individual with strong marketing/communication skills. They will be a natural story-teller with the ability to write powerful and engaging copy for different audiences and channels, with the ability to build strong working relationships from the media.  Previous sector experience is less important.

Jersey Hospice Care offer a competitive remuneration package, including private medical cover,  pension and free parking. 

As an equal opportunities’ employer, Jersey Hospice Care is committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We celebrate equality and diversity and actively encourage applications from people from diverse backgrounds.  

Jersey Hospice Care is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of people at risk.
