About the role: 

People with dementia face great inequity. They experience direct discrimination compared to other health conditions in the provision of, and access to, quality and affordable care and support.

This role will also play an integral part in engaging and motivating staff, volunteers, Society members, supporters and other stakeholders to support Alzheimer’s Society campaigns. 

You will work with teams across the organisation to deliver integrated local and national activity that helps us to achieve our influencing aims, making a difference to the lives of people with dementia today and in the future.

You will have experience of developing and delivering compelling campaigns to recruit and retain supporters, and knowledge of the UK political system to ensure that Alzheimer’s Society maximises the opportunity for change.
