If you feel you have the skills to make a real impact and contribute to creating lasting social change for children and families, we would love to hear from you. 

We have increased the diversity of Frontline’s workforce in the last 12 months, but we need to do more to have greater racialised minority representation in our senior roles.

We empower families and health professionals with trusted advice on keeping babies safe, backed by research, and provide grieving families with bereavement support, side-by-side.

Since 1991 we have reduced the rate of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome by 82% and saved the lives of over 32,000 babies. But our work is not over, as three babies still die suddenly and unexpectedly a week.

As the Digital Marketing Officer, you will deliver digital marketing activity and traditional marketing activity for The Lullaby Trust.

This role will focus on developing our digital marketing and digital brand activity to achieve our organisational objectives, save babies’ lives and support bereaved families. This role will cultivate strong working relationships with all internal teams, to ensure that we are making digital marketing perform for all departments, to better our impact. Demonstrating commitment and enthusiasm for the sector, success in this role will require outstanding digital marketing experience focused on setting and achieving ambitious growth targets. 

It is a key time to be joining The Lullaby Trust as we develop our new brand positioning, new website and creative direction, to help us reach more families and supporters than ever.

We are a friendly, flexible employer and want to create a diverse and inclusive work environment for everyone.

Stroke Association. Rebuilding lives after stroke.

When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.

We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke. And it’s a team effort to get there.

We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.

We’re working to improve the diversity of our team.  Because we know that individuality leads to a richer experience for our people and better support for those affected by stroke.

We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. And we’re particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke and those from under-represented communities. 

Every five minutes, stroke destroys lives. Help us rebuild them and join our team.

In 2019, we developed a bold new corporate strategy so that we can rebuild more lives after stroke and make a bigger difference to people’s lives. To help us deliver our strategy and make a real difference, we are looking to recruit talented people to a number of new roles. If you would like to support stroke survivors to rebuild their lives, we want to hear from you!

You may also have experience in areas such as Digital, Digital Marketing, Digital Service, Digital Media, Digital Experience, Digital Marketing, Digital Service, Digital Media, Digital Officer, Digital Marketing Officer, Digital Service Officer, Digital Media Officer, Digital Experience Officer.
