Job Description
This is a brand new leadership role at a pivotal moment for the Greyhound Trust.
We re creating a new team, with a new remit, to take on a new challenge: driving our work across brand, income generation, marketing, communications and engagement so that more greyhounds can be supported, homed and championed.
As Head of Marketing, Communications and Income Generation, you ll build and lead a compact, hands-on, multi-disciplinary team, bringing together specialist skills and embedding genuinely integrated, collaborative ways of working. This role will suit someone who enjoys shaping teams as much as shaping strategy and who is excited by the opportunity to create something from the ground up.

You ll work as part of a highly motivated, close-knit leadership group based at the National Greyhound Centre in Horley, Surrey, where collaboration, mutual support and shared accountability really matter.
Alongside leading the Trust s brand, marketing and income generation activity, you will also develop and manage our wholly owned trading subsidiary, Greyhound Events Ltd ensuring it grows sustainably and plays a meaningful role in both income generation and supporter engagement. You ll see events not just as fundraisers, but as powerful opportunities to build relationships, tell our story and bring new audiences closer to our cause.
You ll be responsible for creating and delivering an integrated brand, marketing and income generation strategy, grounded in audience insight and sector best practice, and flexible enough to evolve as we grow. From individual giving and digital campaigns to partnerships, events and retail, you ll oversee a diverse income portfolio while ensuring supporters and volunteers have a consistently positive experience with the Greyhound Trust.
This is a role for a leader who combines strategic vision with practical delivery, and who leads with empathy, creativity and determination. You ll support colleagues and volunteers across the organisation, champion high standards, and help ensure that everything we do reflects our values committed, compassionate and determined always doing what is best for every greyhound.
