Assistant Communications Officer

We are looking for a Assistant Communications Officer to join the National Theatre's Communications team.

The Assistant Communications Officer plays a pivotal role in supporting the Communications team to execute creative media campaigns, as well as administrative and operational activities, that help deliver the National Theatre’s communications strategy. This is a hands-on role requiring a proactive, can-do approach. Working closely with the Communications Manager, Corporate and Campaigns, you will support integrated press and communications campaigns across key priorities, especially around our Learning programmes, while also underpinning the administrative needs of the wider Communications team. This role will also work closely with the Show Publicity team to support campaigns across our three stages and on tour. This will include the preparation and distribution of press and internal materials, facilitating interview logistics, handling incoming enquiries and requests, maintaining records and documents, processing and archive management of production and publicity images, delivering business processes, monitoring media coverage, supporting events, and undertaking research.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
