We’re recruiting! We’re looking for a Communications Officer to join our Communications team based in South West London.
From quiet beginnings, parkrun has grown into a worldwide social movement with community at its beating heart.
Committed to breaking down barriers to participation in regular physical activity and bringing communities together, we deliver free, weekly timed events every weekend that people of all ages and backgrounds can take part in – as walkers, joggers, runners, volunteers and spectators.
Our mission is to create a healthier and happier planet. Now in our 18th year, parkrun is delivered in over 2,200 locations across 23 countries.
The role
We are looking to hire an experienced Communications Officer who will hold an essential role in contributing to, implementing and working on a wide range of communications activities.
We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and particularly welcome applications from under-represented groups, to enable us to bring diversity of perspective to our thinking and conversation. We pride ourselves on being inclusive and it’s important to us that we strive to have a workforce that is diverse in the widest sense. If you share our values and ambitions, and have the skills and experience, then we would be delighted to receive your application.
