Your new company You’ll be joining a high-profile public sector organisation with a visible role at the heart of its community. This is a busy, stakeholder-rich environment where communications directly shapes public trust, engagement, and how services are understood and used.
Your new role As Communications Officer, you’ll plan and deliver strategic communications, marketing and media activity that promotes services and protects reputation. Working closely with internal teams and external partners, you’ll lead targeted campaigns across digital and traditional channels, create clear content that lands with different audiences, and help ensure brand consistency across the organisation. This is a hands-on role with real variety, from campaign delivery and social media management through to media relations support and publications.

- Experience working in a communications, marketing or public relations role (minimum 2 years’ relevant experience, or 4 years if you don’t hold a degree)
- Proven experience of developing and delivering targeted campaigns, including evaluation against clear objectives
- Strong stakeholder management experience across internal and external audiences
- Confident, accurate writing skills across multiple formats and channels
- Experience using social media and online media management to deliver measurable outcomes
- A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle, or access to transport that enables you to carry out the duties of the role
What you’ll get in return This is a 12-month contract opportunity (37 hours per week, Monday-Friday, with occasional out-of-hours as required) offering a competitive public sector pay rate (PO2 – £41,771 / £21.65 per hour) and hybrid working. You’ll step into a role with breadth, visibility, and impact – ideal for a communications professional who enjoys campaign delivery, stakeholder engagement, and building a strong public-facing profile.
