Thank you for showing an interest in working for Emmaus UK. We are looking for a high performing Communications Officer to join our team in Birmingham.

You'll have responsibility for generating national media coverage for Emmaus UK, working alongside a team of regionally based public relations officers.

You will also manage the Emmaus UK social media accounts, deal with media monitoring and work with the communications manager to co-ordinate internal communications work across the federation.

You will work with companions, staff and volunteers to gather stories that demonstrate the benefits of Emmaus in the UK, in order to raise awareness of our achievements.

A major part of the strategic plan for Emmaus in the UK is increasing our profile as a charity and working to affect change that will benefit people who have experienced homelessness and social exclusion. We're looking for someone who can help us to do that, making the most of the potential we know Emmaus has.

Emmaus is a fantastic organisation, helping formerly homeless people to re-gain lost self-esteem by providing them with a stable home and meaningful work in one of our social enterprises. We understand that a home is more than just a roof over your head,

It's somewhere to belong, where you feel part of a community, and that's what Emmaus offers.
