The client is currently losing both their manager and officer, so need someone at either level who can help them cover the role whilst they recruit.

The manager is vacant and the officer will leave at the end of July, so would be ideal for someone who could join immediately, that would be happy to get their hands dirty and cover any aspect of the internal comms function that needs it. Their is no strategic function to this role but will need someone with the following skills and experience:

In tandem, you will look for new and innovative ways to expand and improve our communication channels. At all times you will be on the lookout for great stories from across the charity that showcase and celebrate good practice and increase staff engagement.

You may fit somewhere between both, so if you are able to offer support to this charity, we would like to hear from you.

The role itself is ideally 3dpw in the office in London and the rest from home. Totally remote if an option however, ILW would be removed.
