Internal Communication Specialist
We’re looking for a resourceful and strategic Internal Communication Specialist to take a leading role in championing and developing internal communications. You’ll be adept at building and nurturing strong collaborative relationships and act as a trusted advisor to people across all levels.
You’ll be pivotal in helping departments and individuals embed communications in their strategies and working practices, providing them with day-to-day advice and support.
You’ll be responsible for maintaining and growing activities that engage, connect and inspire our people. This includes working with other teams to improve and manage internal communications tools and channels so colleagues can stay up to date with the organisation’s projects, updates, process changes, strategy and goals. Templating, key messaging, employee engagement communications, marketing materials, support with the employee handbook, Induction and Health & Safety reporting.
You will be an internal ambassador for our brand and equip colleagues to advocate for the organisation and sell and promote our offer and purpose.
Working closely with our HR Director, you will develop comms that promote consistent engagement with employees, from potential candidates and new recruits to current staff working across the business.
This role requires strategic insight but it is also an opportunity to work collaboratively with senior leaders and gain insight into the running of our organisation. You will make a vital contribution to a small but valued team and will play a pivotal role in the successful running of our internal communication function.
