We want to hear from you if you are a creative and confident Communications or Public Relations professional with a genuine interest in making a difference in the lives of children in care.

We are looking for a Communications and PR Officer to join our friendly Salisbury-based team. You will be interested and enthusiastic about all aspects of communications and PR, have a knack for writing, and be willing to jump into any task with a positive, can-do attitude.

Reporting to our Communications and Partnerships Manager, you will be eager to support and learn from our close-knit team of eight. We’re a busy team, supporting many different children’s services across the country and your role will be varied, touching many different aspects of communications and public relations.
