Justlife’s Vision
Making people's experience of temporary accommodation be short, safe and healthy.
About this role
We are seeking an experienced Communications Manager who will elevate our charity’s profile, amplify our mission, engage stakeholders and influence policy change nationally through compelling storytelling and impactful campaigns. The role will lead on shaping and delivering our communications strategy, ensuring our messaging is clear, consistent, and aligned with our vision of transforming temporary accommodation (TA).
The ideal candidate will be as comfortable with high-level strategy and planning as getting their hands dirty in the day-to-day of making that strategy happen. They will care about our cause of bringing about change for people living in homeless Temporary Accommodation across the country. They will be a self-starter with great communications skills and an ability to think strategically alongside a flexible, pro-active and open approach to work.
Working closely with our senior leadership, policy and fundraising teams, they will combine excellent organisation, communication and people skills to move forward the comms across our charity, leading this area of our work at an exciting time for Justlife as a charity. We are just launching the Transforming Temporary Accommodation Project, a national 5 year initiative aiming to radically reduce the use of TA while improving standards for those who depend on it.
The Communications Manager will play a crucial role in developing our communications strategy and delivery around this project, as well as across the wider work of the charity including our policy and research work, our frontline services in Brighton and Manchester, and our communication with donors and supporters.

Justlife delivers impactful services in Greater Manchester and Brighton & Hove, supporting and empowering people experiencing homelessness in temporary accommodation. We also drive positive system change across the national temporary accommodation sector, convening those with a common interest; people with lived experience, landlords, charities, local and national government, and carrying out research and gathering insights.
We aim to grow our impact and reach, supporting more people in temporary accommodation and to build a movement that brings about lasting positive change.
Why work for us?
Here at Justlife, we're committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. We want to be an organisation that's representative of the communities we serve, which is why we strive for diversity of age, gender identity, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, ethnicity and perspective.
