Marketing and Communications Officer – B2B Focus

Globally and nationally wildlife is in steep decline. We appear to be reaching critical tipping points around the loss of biodiversity as well as around climate change, both being interlinked. Human society cannot prosper without wildlife and healthy ecosystems.??? ?? 

Kent’s wildlife needs to be restored to much higher levels. We can no longer allow common things to become rare. We can only do this by restoring large-scale natural habitat areas and processes. Doing this will contribute to solving global problems. But we won’t be able to do this unless we publicly aspire to a higher level of impact and show that we can deliver this.

The Job: 

You will be a part of Kent Wildlife Trust’s Marketing and Communications team, within the Fundraising and Marketing department. You will support the creation, delivery, management and evaluation of marketing and communications materials and content across all platforms with a focus on our business audiences to help communicate our Corporate Partnership, Wilder Carbon and Environmental Consultancy work.

This post draws together a number of tasks that are crucial in providing support to deliver targeted communications to key audiences, raise our profile and engage businesses, supporters, and partners with our work.

This is a post which will use a broad mixture of skills built on wide, hands-on experience.  The qualities of the individual appointed to the post will play a large part in determining the nature of the job.

You:
