Brand and Marketing Manager

We’re looking for a talented Brand & Marketing Manager to lead creative campaigns that inspire thousands and help fund life‑changing care across Somerset. At St Margaret’s Hospice Care, every story you tell and every campaign you lead makes a real difference to patients and families facing life‑limiting illness. If you thrive in a fast‑paced, idea‑driven environment and love turning strategy into results, this is your opportunity to shape one of Somerset’s most respected charity brands. About the Role Reporting to the Head of Communications, you’ll take the lead on developing and delivering brand and marketing campaigns that raise awareness, grow engagement, and drive income. You’ll: Develop and execute powerful multi‑channel campaigns - from digital and social to print and PR. Champion the St Margaret’s brand, ensuring a consistent, creative, and high‑impact identity across every touchpoint. Guide and inspire our Digital Marketing Coordinator and wider creative team. Collaborate with fundraising, retail, and clinical teams to maximise the impact of every campaign. Use data and insight to measure success, refine messaging, and continually evolve our approach. This is a hands‑on manager role - part strategist, part creative driver, where no two days are the same. About You You’re an experienced marketing and communications professional with a track record of delivering results across digital and traditional channels. You’ll bring: Proven experience leading brand and marketing campaigns end‑to‑end. Strong creative judgement with the ability to turn ideas into engaging, results‑driven content. Excellent copywriting and storytelling skills. A proactive, “can‑do” attitude and the ability to thrive under pressure. Confidence working with senior stakeholders, agencies, and partners. Travel across the geographical area covered by the hospice as required. A relevant marketing qualification or equivalent experience. You’ll be the kind of person who’s energised by a fast‑moving environment - equally comfortable planning strategy as you are rolling up your sleeves to deliver it. Why St Margaret’s? We’re more than a hospice, we’re a community. Every member of our team plays a vital part in ensuring patients and families receive the care and compassion they deserve, helping them to live as well as they can for as long as possible.
