Who are Guts UK Charity?

Guts UK Charity is committed to a world where digestive conditions are better understood, better treated and everyone who lives with one gets the support they need. Too many people are suffering or dying in silence or alone. They don’t know where to turn for information or support, diagnosis takes too long for many, and treatment can often come too late.​

We are the only UK charity funding research into the digestive system. We raise vital awareness of digestive conditions, fund life-saving research, and provide patients and loved ones with expert information and support – we are informed by evidence and expertise, our community, and the patient voice.​ 

Our mission is simple: to improve the lives of millions of people affected by digestive conditions 

The role of Communications Manager

​As Communications Manager you’ll champion our charity’s work and brand. You’ll play a pivotal role in our charity, providing communications support across key areas of Guts UK’s work, including information, research and fundraising, as we deliver our new five-year strategy.

As part of our comms team of four, you'll work to champion our charity, raise vital awareness of our work, and manage our reputation. You’ll support the planning and delivery of education and awareness events and will work on projects linked to our information support service, research, patient engagement and involvement, and fundraising.

You’ll help us to grow and extend our reach, with demonstrable experience planning, creating and delivering high quality, engaging and informative communications, campaigns and content across channels including website, social media and print.

You’ll take the lead on media and PR activities for the charity, so significant experience working within an in-house press service is essential. 

You’ll have strong leadership skills, be an excellent communicator, and will have a curiosity for keeping up to date with trends and sector developments.

Our ideal candidate will:

• Be a brave and bold communicator who values collaboration and connection, matching our values as a charity.
• Be a skilled, experienced leader who can support our small and talented team to elevate our communications, campaigns and content to the next level.
• Have a natural flare for transforming complex messages into engaging, easy to understand content.
• Have a desire for telling compelling stories that amplify the voices of people affected by digestive conditions.
• Be comfortable working with members of our community to share their experiences with understanding and compassion.
• Be friendly and approachable and will enjoy working creatively and collaboratively within a small team, as well as with external stakeholders.

It goes without saying that you must be able to demonstrate empathy with our cause in your daily work, however, the ideal candidate to join our team is one who has a genuine interest in digestive health or connection to our area of work.
