Marketing Manager | Gloucester | Part Time - 22.5 hours per week | £40,055 - £45,826 pro rata per annum
Community Foster Care is a Therapeutic Independent Foster Agency. We are also a charity with an important history based on principles of social justice and the power of communities. The children and young people Community Foster Care works with have experienced relational and developmental trauma. These experiences lead to the presentation of multiple complexities, which require the love, security and sense of belonging provided by a nurturing family. These families need to be resilient, highly skilled and well supported. We believe it takes a community to raise a child. As a therapeutic agency, we are exploring key approaches to refine how to achieve our vision.
We are currently seeking a Marketing Manager to be responsible for our Marketing Strategy, leading the way in growing the number of Foster Families in our community.
