Job Description
We are seeking a creative and strategic communicator to lead our Communications and Marketing team. This is a hands‑on leadership role where no two days look the same, guiding brand strategy, mentoring a small high‑performing team, crafting compelling content, managing media relationships, or jumping into campaign delivery.
You'll also provide oversight and inspiration across fundraising and partnerships, helping tell our story in ways that spark generosity, investment and community pride.
If you love connecting big ideas with meaningful outcomes and enjoy a good brainstorm as much as a good brief, this role has your name on it.
