About the role

People with Parkinson’s need people to better understand the condition and take action. From their neighbours and friends, to decision makers and healthcare professionals.

You’ll help make that happen through high impact, creative and engaging media work that grabs headlines and shines a light on the reality of Parkinson’s and our campaigning work to improve the lives of people living with the condition.

You’ll contribute to the smooth running of a busy press office, jumping on newsworthy opportunities that will help us keep Parkinson’s in the public conversation, and make sure that we have an army of ready, willing and able speakers – from colleagues to those affected by the condition.

What you’ll do:

• Develop and deliver sustained and effective proactive media campaigns to support specific aspects of Parkinson’s UK’s work, especially its policy and campaigns work, as we move towards a cure and better support
• Remain responsive to the news agenda, creating opportunities to raise campaign and condition awareness in key titles
• Ensure that the voices of people with Parkinson’s are central to our media work, building a network of willing and engaged storytellers
• Keep spokespeople media ready with regular internal media training, building confidence and testing their skills
• Track and evaluate your work, demonstrating impact and sharing learnings with the wider team
