About this job

UNISON is relaunching its membership benefits package this year (currently UNISONplus) and we need an energetic marketing professional to implement and evaluate an annual marketing plan for this key strategic initiative.  You’ll also handle marketing for a number of other key services – personal injury and legal services and our welfare charity.

These are tough times for UNISON members, who have faced years of pay freezes and extra pressures at work. So it is more important than ever for us to demonstrate very clearly the real value of their union membership. Let’s show them that someone is on their side!

If you are a marketing professional looking to use your skills in a progressive organisation dedicated to supporting our hardworking nurses, teaching assistants, social workers, librarians, dinner ladies and emergency workers, we want to hear from you.

This is an exciting opportunity to work with a multidisciplinary team of communications professionals to show how marketing skills can help make a union stronger.

This job is offered as a 12 months, fixed term contract with a particular focus on improving the union’s capacity to effectively market our key services to current (and potential) members.
