Marketing Executive - Fundraising

Closing Date: 12/03/2023

At Help for Heroes, we believe those who serve our country deserve support when they are wounded. Every day, men and women have to leave their career in the Armed Forces as a result of physical or psychological wounds; their lives changed forever. We help them, and those still serving, to recover and get on with their lives.

And who are we you’re wondering? We are experts and beginners. Generalists and specialists. Ordinary people with an extraordinary passion towards making a positive change to the lives of our veterans (and having fun while doing it).

As One Team we share a philosophy – I.C.A.R.E. It’s the way we walk and talk, the way we interact with others and how we approach everything we do. We are:

Innovative – Collaborative – Authentic – Resourceful – Energetic.

We have an incredible opportunity for a MARKETING EXECUTIVE to join our team.

About You

Are you looking for your next role in marketing where you can use your skills and experience to make a real difference to people’s lives? Are you looking for something that offers you a bit more stretch and opportunity to step up and take a leading role on projects – one where your voice and ideas will be listened to and respected? Do you want to be able to be bold and make our supporters step up and want to do something? On a Monday morning do you want to look back and be proud of what you did the week before?

About the Role

It’s an exciting role giving you the chance to be involved in a variety of projects across all marketing channels. Primarily you’ll be delivering campaigns to persuade the public and our supporters to raise money through our fundraising events and products – we’re responsible for the bums on seats! It’s a heady mix of project management, creative thinking, brand management, digital marketing, copywriting, email marketing, web management, working with PR and external agencies. Think of us an in-house marketing agency; you’ll experience the full range of marketing responsibilities and specialisms and work with teams across the charity so be at the centre of everything going on. Don’t worry if you don’t have all the skills and experience in the JD – if you’re the right person we’ll be delighted to support your development.

About the Team

It’s fast and furious but it’s also fun. We’re a small but perfectly formed team and we value and support each other. We’re all based remotely but we’ve nailed it, so everyone feels connected through our coffee mornings, walk and talk team meetings, 1:1 sessions and flexible working to support your work life balance. We’re proud of our achievements individually and collectively and we take time to celebrate – but we’re also not afraid to try things out and heh, if it doesn’t quite work then we all learn from the experience. There’s lots of expertise in the team and so many people to learn from. But don’t just take our word for it; we’re happy for you to meet the team and ask them anything. Let’s talk.

Help for Heroes believes those who serve our country deserve support when they’re wounded. Every day, men and women have to leave their career in the Armed Forces as a result of physical or psychological wounds. The Charity helps them, and their families, to recover and get on with their lives. It has already supported more than 26,500 people and won’t stop until every wounded veteran gets the support they deserve.
