Interview date: w/c 14th October
We are here for anyone affected by dementia to help them navigate some of the hardest and most frightening times of their lives. Dementia is the crisis no one is talking about. Our external communications reflect help (support we provide for people with dementia) and hope (investment in research and innovation that will mean a better future for people with dementia) and our social media channels have a huge role to play in that.
We are looking for a talented and tenacious new Head of Social Media to join our External Relations and Media team. Our new Head of Social Media will lead Alzheimer’s Society’s social media functions, developing a compelling and inclusive organic social media strategy which integrates with organisational aims and positions Alzheimer’s Society as the leading dementia charity in the UK.
This role will drive a high-performing team to deliver proactive social media content that resonates with a range of audiences across multiple platforms, from people with dementia/carers, through to decision makers, supporters and the wider public. And we want to ensure that we’re quick to react to breaking news and we’re watching out for channel-specific trends – creating engaging content that grows our audience and brand awareness.
The role will work closely with senior colleagues right across the Society with the need to influence and collaborate at the highest levels. You will manage a small team who are all talented and passionate in their roles, working to achieve the team's collective goal. We need our new Head to support and lead them on this journey.
And it’s a brilliant time to be a part of Alzheimer’s Society. Alzheimer's Society was named on the Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2023! We have achieved excellent scores for workplace happiness, pride, and job satisfaction. This is a wonderful achievement and we're incredibly proud, as this is fantastic testament to all the people who make up Alzheimer’s Society
