Senior Communications Manager

This is an exciting opportunity to make a positive impact on a major national issue; helping us make a lasting change in how we address youth offending.

You’ll be helping to build the communications function of a new organisation during its set-up phase (with some support from the Impetus Public Affairs Team). You will be a confident self-starter able to manage competing priorities and work independently, as well as part of a growing team.

We welcome communications ‘all rounders’ but we are particularly looking for someone with a background in media relations, messaging and writing. You will lead the Youth Endowment Fund’s PR strategy, building profile and raising awareness of our role and activities. You will play a central role in establishing our identity with our external audiences and building our brand and reputation.

You will work closely with the Fund’s staff, trustees and partners to generate positive media coverage and engaging content across various communications channels.

Your main responsibilities will include day-to-day management of the fund’s profile and brand, managing media, and writing content for external audiences across a variety of channels. A clear, confident and concise writing style is essential.

Key relationships: All Youth Endowment Fund staff, Impetus public affairs team and staff, staff at EIF and SIB, as well as external stakeholders and suppliers / agencies.
