Job Details

An exciting and rare opportunity has arisen to join one of the biggest FMCG retailers as a Head of CSR Communications and Reporting, with a remit to help shape and set the brand’s overall CSR and sustainability strategy/agenda.

The Company

A household name in the FMCG, Food & Drink and retail space, this company gets a huge amount of attention from the press and is one of the UK’s biggest brands. They continue to innovate to ensure they are ahead of the competition, with regular new initiatives and exciting product developments – from launching vegan ranges, trialling artificial intelligence in-store and continuing to always diversify their product offerings.

The company HQ has a fantastic vibe – with an on-site gym, heavily subsidised cafes, football and basketball court, with suppliers regularly setting up pop up food and drink stalls. The culture is trusting and flexible – as long as you get your work done, there’s no clock watching - giving you an incredible work life balance on top of a great benefits package that ensures employee retention remains incredibly strong. 

The Role – Head of CSR Communications and Reporting

In this role, you’ll be working across the business, with responsibility for the brand’s corporate responsibility and sustainability strategy which spans a huge variety of topics from workers rights, sustainable sourcing, plastics and more. You’ll need to have a background in CSR/sustainability communications/PR, with knowledge of best practice in CSR and what this looks like for a business.

Another key element of the role will be data and reporting including pulling together the brand’s CSR report. This role is ideal for someone who loves analysis, data and reporting rather than the delivery side, as the media delivery is handed over to the press team.


A full job spec can be provided upon application but key responsibilities will include:

  • Developing the brand’s corporate responsibility and sustainability communications strategy
  • Engaging key stakeholders across the business to support delivery
  • Delivery of the brand’s sustainability reporting
  • Leading engaging with investors on relevant sustainability/CSR issues
  • Setting KPIs and benchmarking/monitoring progress internally

About You:

  • Communications/PR experience
  • In house background preferred but agency experience will also be considered
  • Experience steeped in CSR/sustainability
  • Strong on data, insights and analysis
  • Experience in developing and leading a strategy

In return:

  • A salary of £75,000 - £100,000 DOE
  • Annual bonus up to 45% of annual salary
  • Private healthcare and health screening every 2 years
    Holiday starting at 25 days plus a personal day
    10% savings in store
  • A retirement savings plan – 6-10% contribution rate
    Life Assurance - 5 x contractual pay
