You will:

• Lead the development of an internal communications and engagement strategy aligned with organisational priorities

• Create a two-way communications plan that informs, connects, and inspires

• Shape messaging around transformation and culture change

• Design and deliver employee and volunteer engagement initiatives and events

• Provide actionable insight using performance data and survey feedback

• Drive campaigns that improve wellbeing and foster a strong internal community

About You

To be successful in this role, you’ll need:

• Demonstrable experience in internal communications and engagement

• A relevant qualification (e.g., CIPR, CIM or equivalent)

• Proven success in embedding cultural change through communications strategy

• A collaborative approach and ability to influence across varied stakeholder groups

• Strong writing skills, and the ability to simplify complex information into clear, engaging content

• Experience working within the charity, healthcare or public sector (desirable)

This contract role is offered on a day rate basis until Christmas, with hybrid flexible working arrangements. You’ll be joining a supportive team within an impactful organisation during a pivotal moment of change.

If you’re ready to bring your communication expertise to a purpose-driven environment, we’d love to hear from you.
