• Strong storyteller who can make data heartfelt and human whilst maintaining evidence-based rigour

• Experience with traditional media engagement (press releases, media relations) and writing for sector publications

Shape how frontline support is delivered across our Baby Bank, Community Doula service, infant feeding support, and volunteer programmes in Birmingham. Ensuring safe, trauma-informed care reaches those who need it most.

As Head of Service at Elayos, you’ll turn strategy into meaningful action. You will lead staff and volunteers, strengthen safeguarding practice, embed reflective learning, and champion lived experience at the heart of everything we do. This is a rare opportunity to combine operational leadership with purpose, impact, and values-led service development in a growing organisation supporting mothers and birthing people, who find themselves disadvantaged, during pregnancy, birth and early parenthood.

About The Role
There’s a moment, just before something goes out into the world, when everything clicks into place. The message is clear, the design feels right, and you know it’s going to connect with someone who needs it.
At Alzheimer’s Society, those moments matter. Every piece of creative work helps people affected by dementia feel seen, supported and understood.
As a Junior Designer, you’ll play a part in making that happen. Working within our Creative team, you’ll help turn ideas into thoughtful, well-crafted design across digital and print. From campaign visuals to everyday assets, your work will help bring our brand to life in a way that is consistent, accessible and meaningful.
You’ll collaborate with designers, content specialists and digital colleagues, learning as you go and building your skills in a supportive, fast-paced environment where your work has real impact.
What you’ll do
In this role, you’ll spend your time bringing ideas to life through thoughtful, well-crafted design. You’ll work across a mix of digital and print, creating and adapting assets that help communicate important messages and support impactful campaigns.
You’ll take creative concepts and shape them into clear, engaging visuals that feel consistent, on brand and accessible to a wide range of audiences. Whether you’re refining layouts, resizing assets or preparing files for delivery, you’ll care about getting the details right.
Working closely with colleagues across creative, content and digital teams, you’ll help make sure design supports the bigger picture. You’ll be part of conversations, contribute ideas and collaborate to deliver work that lands well and makes a difference.
Alongside this, you’ll manage your own workload, keeping projects moving and maintaining quality even when things are busy.
At a glance, you will:

- Create and adapt design across digital and print, from social content to campaign materials
- Prepare and deliver artwork that meets brand, accessibility and quality standards
- Collaborate with colleagues to ensure creative supports wider campaigns and activity
- Manage multiple projects and deadlines, staying organised and focused

About you
You’re someone who cares about the details, but also understands how they fit into the bigger picture. You’re motivated, organised and ready to grow, with a natural ability to keep things moving even when things get busy.
You’ll likely bring:

- A strong eye for detail and pride in producing accurate, high-quality work
- Good project and time management skills, with the ability to prioritise and meet deadlines
- Confidence managing more than one task at a time, and knowing how to refocus when priorities shift
- A proactive, self-starting approach, taking ownership of your work while knowing when to ask for support
- The ability to build positive working relationships with a range of people
- Confidence explaining creative ideas in a clear and accessible way, especially to non-design colleagues

You care about inclusive design and understand that how something looks is only part of the story. You think about how it’s experienced, making sure your work is clear, accessible and relevant to different audiences, including people affected by dementia.
We know that great candidates don’t always meet every requirement. If this role interests you and you feel you could make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
 
Interviews are provisionally scheduled to take place 20th May via MS Teams

We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply.  Please also contact Alzheimer's Society Talent Acquisition Team via [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.

About the role

Reporting to the Programme Director of the What Works Hub for Global Education, you will communicate the programme’s mission and findings to a range of audiences – from policymakers in target countries, to leading global academics and international organisations. This will involve overseeing and delivering the Hub’s communications strategy, managing the Hub’s website and social media channels, creating and disseminating content, and coordinating with implementation partners in country, as well as offering a range of hands-on support as part of a tight project team. The role will involve working closely with our strategic and consortium partners, to ensure that communications and engagement activities are targeted effectively to different audiences and country contexts.

You will be based within the What Works Hub at the Blavatnik School of Government, as part of the Hub’s central programme team.  You will also have strong links to the School’s corporate Communications and Events team, who will provide senior guidance and support on communications and engagement. You will be supported by, and line-manage, a Communications and Projects Officer.

This role is fixed-term until 30 June 2027.

Whilst the role is a Grade 8 position, we would be willing to consider candidates with less experience for which an appointment would be at Grade 7 (£39,424 - £47,779 p.a.) with the job title and responsibilities adjusted accordingly. This would be discussed with applicants at interview/appointment where appropriate.

About you

You will be a communications professional who wants to make a contribution on important global issues and is passionate about improving education outcomes. You proactively support broader team activities, stepping in where needed, while still ensuring you deliver on your core duties. You can get your head around research and policy ideas easily, and are comfortable working with academics. You are responsive enough to deliver fast on their priorities and win trust, but assured enough to offer ideas about more effective or efficient ways to deliver their objectives.

You must be a self-starter who is confident working in a matrix style, can cope with complexity and ambiguity, and can define, schedule and drive your own objectives and activities based on a strong understanding of the programme objectives. The role also demands excellent writing skills, digital fluency, and the ability to get to grips with complex concepts and networks.

You will be able to promote the Hub’s thinking, evidence and stories to a broad audience, including policymakers worldwide, working strategically with partners to build the Hub’s credibility as the go-to place for excellence on learning outcomes.

You will have excellent strategic thinking and interpersonal skills, experience of working with partners globally, experience of writing articles and copy for websites, and demonstrable editorial judgement. Strong project management and proven delivery skills, along with relevant work experience and demonstrable experience using social media in a professional communications capacity, are essential.
