At Black Equity Organisation (BEO), we exist to dismantle systemic racism and create lasting change for Black communities across Britain. For too long, institutions and systems, whether in education, employment, healthcare, or the justice system, have disproportionately failed Black people, limiting opportunities and reinforcing structural inequalities. Through advocacy, research, community empowerment and strategic partnerships, we are shaping a society where Black people can thrive, not just survive. Our work spans economic justice, education, health equity, housing and justice reform, ensuring that fairness and opportunity are not privileges, but rights.

As Director of Communications, you will shape our voice, amplify our impact and mobilise communities, stakeholders and decision-makers to drive meaningful change. By building strong cross-sector partnerships and by placing BEO at the heart of government, you will ensure we can best advocate for Black communities in the UK, hold powers to account and dismantle the structural racism that still exists in so many of our institutions and public systems. Through effective, hard-hitting campaigns, you will also create a greater movement behind our mission and ensure the rights of Black people are not suppressed within an increasingly hostile and divisive global political landscape.

We need a bold, creative, and strategic communicator, ideally with an understanding of delivering impact within charity campaigns environments. You will bring broad communications and engagement experience, from media relations and digital campaigns to stakeholder engagement and grassroots mobilisation. You’ll know how to navigate complex issues, manage reputational risk, and amplify the voices of those who need to be heard the most. You will be someone who can turn vision into influence, data into stories, and passion into mobilisation. In return, we offer you the chance to work alongside a dedicated, mission-driven team, in an organisation that values courage, authenticity, and collaboration. You will have the freedom to innovate, the support to grow, and the platform to make a lasting impact.

If you believe in the power of communication to drive generational change, if you are ready to lead transformative engagement strategies, and if you are excited to be part of a movement for change, then we would love to hear from you.
