Are you an experienced communications professional who wants to use your talents to improve the lives of people across the UK? If so, then we’d love to hear from you.

About The Hygiene Bank
Hygiene poverty is not being able to afford many of the everyday hygiene and personal grooming products most of us take for granted. The reality of low income is that it restricts people’s options, leaving us caught between being able to heat our homes, pay the rent, eat, or be clean. It is washing hair, bodies, faces and clothes in the same cheap washing-up liquid used for the dishes. It is not being able to replace a toothbrush when needed or sharing a toothbrush because one each just isn't an option. It is having to choose between shaving foam and razors or the transport fare to a job interview.
Hygiene Poverty is the hidden crisis facing the UK. Earlier this year, The Hygiene Bank published a research report into the incidence and impact of hygiene poverty. It found that over 4.2m adults in the UK are affected by hygiene poverty, that is an additional 1.1m people into hygiene poverty since 2022 - the equivalent of the population of Birmingham.
With hygiene poverty on the rise, it is also undermining the nation’s health: 50% of those affected by hygiene poverty say that it is causing them anxiety or depression. 92% of people affected report that it limits their social interactions with friends and family. 54% of those affected have not gone to the dentist in the last 12 months. But most importantly, it’s putting people in impossible situations. A staggering 69% of adults experiencing hygiene poverty are having to make the difficult decision between paying for essential needs like food and bills or purchasing basic toiletries. 65% of parents affected by hygiene poverty have had to choose between buying hygiene products for themselves or their children.
At The Hygiene Bank, we believe that everyone deserves to feel clean. That is why our network of projects exists – to give people access to the basics they need.

Marie Curie, the UK’s leading end-of-life charity, is seeking an Associate Director of Mass Fundraising to lead the charity’s Mass giving strategy - in particular Cash Appeals, Regular Giving, Gaming and Legacy – and to lead the Innovation team for all of Fundraising.
Marie Curie is the largest non-NHS provider of end-of-life care in the UK, the only provider across all four nations delivering community nursing and hospice care across the country, while providing information and support on all aspects of dying, death, and bereavement. Their leading research pushes the boundaries of what we know about good end-of-life, and their campaigns fight for a world where everyone gets to have the best possible quality of life while living with an illness they’re likely to die from.
The role of Associate Director of Mass Fundraising will be responsible for driving lifetime value and net contribution through ever-improving CPAs, strong awareness, engagement and retention strategies.
You will use your omni-channel marketing skills to oversee your team leading the charity’s cross-organisational Christmas and Great Daffodil Supporter-facing campaigns, ensuring the campaigns deliver income, cold recruitment and brand awareness, becoming moments the whole organisation engages in.
You will also ensure the innovation team focus on £1million plus income opportunities, whilst also providing teams with some support in them running their own optimisation projects. You will use your marketing skills to ensure the Innovation strategy is insight and data-led and that the organisation can run innovative projects quickly and agilely.
Marie Curie are seeking candidates who have senior-level leadership experience in a fundraising environment with a successful track record in mass fundraising and marketing. You should be able to demonstrate strong acquisition and retention results throughout your career and experience leading significant campaigns and in managing multi-million pound income and expenditure budgets. You will also have a proven track record in managing large, high-performing teams.
This is an ideal career opportunity for an individual with extensive community fundraising experience looking to either broaden their portfolio or take the next step towards a Director of Fundraising role.
