The Tree Council is the charity that brings everyone together for the love of trees.

It is a vital moment for our environment. The public is increasingly aware of the important role trees play in tackling climate change, protecting and improving biodiversity and contributing to our health and wellbeing, amongst many other things.

As Communications Manager, you will help consolidate our ambitious plans, co-ordinate our comms and policy work, and support our major projects to plant, protect and speak up for trees and hedgerows across the UK.

You will have knowledge of the broad communications remit, as well as experience working to generate successful media coverage and influence policymakers. You will have excellent organisational skills and be a strong communicator, committed to working in a small dynamic team, in a fast-paced environment.

Attention to detail, a positive outlook and tenacity will be key. Above all, you should be passionate about the environment and making lasting change.

You will:

Support the delivery and growth of The Tree Council’s communications with a focus on media and public affairs activity

Support the development of The Tree Council’s charity coalition group and role as an expert in the sector

Provide communications support across The Tree Council team and in particular to the Hedgerows – ‘Close the Gap’ and National Schools programmes
