Summary
Head of Marketing & Sales
London UK HQ with hybrid working, 35 hours, permanent
Salary range per annum: £79,482 to £89,238* plus London weighting
There is more to the RCN than you might think. We’re a trade union with a membership of over half a million nurses, midwives, nursing support workers and students. We support their practice, represent them, lobby on their behalf, and develop them. We exist to make a positive difference – to the working lives of our members and ultimately to standards in patient care. Our employees are drawn from many walks of life – we are nurses, marketers and communicators, administrators, IT professionals, policy and finance experts, lawyers… together we are so much more. We couldn’t do what we do without our people.
We're accredited with Investors in People Silver Standard. Our people are our greatest asset, and we want people who can contribute to our purpose in line with our values.
As Head of Marketing & Sales you’ll use your positive attitude, your knowledge of sales, marketing and your ability to deliver increased income and surplus to support our members and other organisational priorities.
It's a job full of possibilities as you could get involved in anything from leading a procurement to select a new commercial supplier to running a workshop with different staff, explaining how they can convert a prospect into a real commercial opportunity and leading a new marketing campaign focused on a specific member segment. We'll look to you to lead on the overall marketing & sales strategy. It's a great way to build your knowledge of our work and develop your potential.
To join us you’ll need sales and marketing strategy and team leadership experience and, ideally, a background in a relevant area such as generating commercial income in a membership organisation. You will also need experience in bringing together cross functional teams and leading individuals from different specialties to generate sustainable income and surplus.
Whatever your background, you'll be efficient, accurate and show a real customer focus in all you do.
To succeed at the Royal College of Nursing all you need to do is think bigger, better and brighter. And with an attitude like that, anything’s possible.
What we offer you
We expect you to look after our members and customers and we expect you to be rewarded for it. We offer an impressive range of benefits, a broad range of learning development opportunities and an award-winning health and wellbeing programme. We offer annual leave up to 32 days plus bank holidays and three additional days for the Christmas break plus generous maternity, adoption, paternity, and shared parental leave packages.
*We offer a competitive pay structure with annual pay progression until you reach the top of the salary scale. We normally offer new employees the first point of the salary range, although you may be able to negotiate a higher starting salary depending on your skills, experience and current salary.
What we deliver for our members is wide and varied so when it comes to how we work one size doesn’t fit all. We also know that to empower our people to do their best work, they must be able to balance the demands of work and home. We are a diverse organisation and understand everyone has different needs and many of our employees enjoy flexible working enabling them to deliver results whilst having a good work life balance. Departments and directorates have their own hybrid ways of working which put the needs of the service they deliver – whether that’s to members or to colleagues - at their heart, in alignment with our hybrid working core principles. At the RCN it’s unlikely you will work from home for all of your working time. Equally no one is expected to work solely in the office unless your role requires it. You can find out more by having a discussion with the recruiting manager.
