Junior Communications Manager

Parlez-vous français?

And do you have a minimum of four years’ communications experience in a professional environment, where you have demonstrated your unique ability to work both autonomously and collaboratively?

Great, here’s a bit more detail for you, but for more information, send an email with your CV and an introductory paragraph in French, to [email protected]

So this is an international business, with a head office in Paris and most of the senior management team are French, hence needing to speak the language. The business is involved in the biggest construction and infrastructure projects in the world, including in the UK, so this is a hugely responsible role.

The communications manager’s role in the UK for this exciting and interesting business is all about engagement with the UK partners, the team, and external parties, including the media, stakeholders, awards partners. It’s not really about strategy and brand management (that’s all directed by the team in Paris) - this role is about the local (UK) team and getting their stories and communications messages distributed accurately, relevantly and efficiently.

It’ll involve plenty of using your own initiative, as you’ll need to entirely manage your own calendar (events, site visits, awards, staff meetings, seminars, team meetings) and be the interface between projects here in the UK and Paris. Sometimes, you will literally be working on your own and travelling the country to meetings. Although you report to the MD, you’ll be in super close contact with the Communications Director in Paris, but it’s likely lots of this communication with will be by video call. And this is a global community of professionals, so an understanding of international business would be pretty much essential.

Oh, and of course you must be happy to travel to Paris occasionally!

Nous avons hâte d’avoir de vos nouvelles !!
