Great internal communication doesn't just share information. It creates culture, builds engagement and helps people understand why their work matters.
We're looking for an Communications & Engagement Lead to join one of the UK's most respected technology manufacturers, creating products that genuinely make a difference around the world.
This is a brand-new role, giving you the rare opportunity to build an internal communications function from the ground up. Rather than inheriting established processes, you'll have the freedom to shape strategy, introduce new ideas and make a visible impact across the entire business.
The Opportunity
Reporting to the Director of Talent & Culture, with a dotted line into the Product & Marketing Director, the Communications & Engagement Lead will sit at the heart of the business, bringing together People, Marketing and Product teams to ensure every employee understands where the company is heading, why it matters and the role they play in its success.
You'll help transform internal communication from something that's currently ad hoc into a professional, engaging and strategic function that connects colleagues with the company's vision, products, culture and purpose.

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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
