A catastrophic event can change everything. Every year, across England and Wales, there are 20,000 major trauma cases and 16,000 deaths following injury. 30% of major trauma patients acquire a physical disability, and there is a 40% increased chance of mental health difficulties following major traumatic injury.

Day One Trauma Support is the only charity supporting all major trauma patients, regardless of their type of injury. The charity offers practical and emotional support to enable patients to navigate the challenge of the life that lies ahead. 

“It’s a privilege to share people’s inspiring stories every day, knowing it will give someone else fresh hope during their recovery.” Dave Nichols, Communications Manager.

We are looking for a Marketing and Communications Officer to join the communications and fundraising team at Day One Trauma Support, could that be you?

The Role

This is a brand-new role at Day One Trauma Support, and an exciting time to join an ambitious rapidly growing national charity. The Marketing and Communications Officer will be a key member of the small but ambitious, hard-working, enthusiastic and friendly team.

A key part of this role will be supporting the Communications Manager to deliver the new flagship event Major Trauma Awareness Week. Other main duties will include:

• Communicating fundraising asks to ensure vital income is sustained, to continue and grow services, using powerful stories to ensure people remain at the heart of their work.
• Supporting colleagues and volunteers to drive the success of events and ensure the charity is well represented at external conferences and exhibitions.
• Growing the network of stakeholders and raising the profile of the charity, driving referrals through effective marketing and communication.

The Person

We are looking for a great communicator, who is passionate about making a difference by ensuring those who need support can access it. This is a busy diverse role, so you will be happy to roll up your sleeves and getting stuck in when it matters. One day you could be creating support literature that’s going to be seen by thousands of people, while on another day you’re organising 160 distinguished guests to attend an event at the House of Lords.

There is lots of scope for the right person to make this role their own. If this sounds like you, and you are eager to join the team at Day One Trama this could be the hugely rewarding next step in your career!

Why Day One Trauma Support?

Not only is Day One Trauma Support hugely passionate about the individuals whose life it changes every year, the charity also puts significant emphasis on staff welfare and offers all employees the opportunity to be part of an inclusive organisation with an approachable senior leadership team. This organisation has a range of benefits and promotes a culture that ensures all staff feel valued and respected, but also supported in their roles.

The position will be home based and require regular travel to Leeds, and further afield as required. The charity is inherently flexible and offers variable working patterns and reduced hours for those that may need.
