Job Description

We are looking for an experienced and well-connected Press and PR professional, who will thrive in a solo press role, leading the function in the UK and working within an international network of press colleagues. 

Reporting to the Head of Communications, you will be as comfortable working with senior colleagues across our international network, as you are rolling up your sleeves and pitching to journalists and writing press releases. 

Action Against Hunger works in many contexts which will require you to understand and negotiate complex messaging, including Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria. We also work in countries which are not making headlines, like Sudan, and you will be as passionate about bringing these stories into the spotlight. 

The UK office for Action Against Hunger hosts a large Fundraising function, and the Press and PR Manager is key in supporting income generating colleagues across Partnerships, Events and Philanthropy.  For more detailed information on the role, please download the attached pdf Job Description.

Closing Date: Sunday 12-Jan-2025 23:30. Interview Date: 22nd and 23rd Jan 2025
