Job description

Who we are:

Muslim Aid is a UK faith-based international development organisation that provides support to communities around the world affected by disasters, conflict, or endemic poverty without regard to their social, religious, or ethnic background. 

Established in 1985, Muslim Aid has facilitated the engagement of the British Muslim and non-Muslim community in support of its work in a variety of ways. Over the years, its humanitarian work has included responses to major crises around the world including, famine in East Africa, earthquakes and flooding in Pakistan and Bangladesh as well as conflicts in Syria and Yemen. 

We place strong emphasis on long-term development projects that build the capacity of local people to help themselves. In addition to the 5 country offices worldwide we also work with multiple partner offices focusing on sustainable Development Programmes and providing humanitarian relief during times of crisis.

Summary of the role:

The Head of Communications is responsible for shaping and delivering the organisation’s communication strategy to establish Muslim Aid as a leading faith-based voice and thought leader in international development, humanitarian programming and positive systemic change. This role involves managing all aspects of internal and external communications, including media relations, digital content, and brand management. The Head of Communications will work closely with the Director of Strategy and Communications to ensure that communication efforts are aligned with the organisation’s strategic goals and effectively engage stakeholders.

About the Role:

 Develop and implement a comprehensive global communication strategy that enhances the organisation’s public image, engages key stakeholders, and supports the achievement of strategic goals. Ensure that the strategy is flexible and adaptable to changing circumstances.

Lead the development and monitoring of annual communication plans that outline key initiatives, campaigns, and activities. Ensure that these plans are aligned with the organisation’s strategic priorities, reflect cross-departmental needs and include clear objectives, timelines, and performance metrics.

Provide editorial oversight for all content produced by the communications team, digital or otherwise: including social media posts, website content, newsletters, press releases, and other written materials. Ensure that all content adheres to the organisation’s messaging guidelines and brand standards.

Act as the overall guardian of the Muslim Aid brand and put in place processes and support to ensure it is represented at its best in all external communications.

Ensure that the organisation’s brand reflects and aligns with organisational identity and is consistently applied across all communication channels. Lead efforts to refresh and strengthen the brand as needed to reflect the organisation’s evolving direction.

Steer strategic engagement with the media to ensure accurate reporting on Muslim Aid’s activities, priorities, principles, and approach, as well as to platform Muslim Aid’s strategic direction and goals, and advance the organisation’s thought leadership.

About You:

To be successful in this role, you will need:

  1. Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Public Relations, Journalism, Marketing, or a related field.
  2. Proven leadership experience in a communications role, preferably within an INGO or similar organisation.
  3. Proven experience in developing and executing successful communication strategies, managing media relations, and overseeing digital communications.
  4. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a strong ability to create compelling content for diverse audiences.
  5. Proficiency in digital communication tools, social media platforms, and content management systems.
  6. Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

Why you should apply:

Take the lead in shaping Muslim Aid’s voice and reputation as a thought leader in international development and humanitarian work. As the Head of Communications, you will be at the forefront of our communication strategy, helping to amplify our impact and foster positive systemic change. You will manage all aspects of our internal and external communications, from media relations and digital content to brand management, ensuring that our message reaches and resonates with key stakeholders. If you are a skilled communicator passionate about making a difference in a values-driven environment, this is your chance to drive change in an influential, essential role.
