We’re on the lookout for a Senior Internal Communications & Engagement Officer who can hit the ground running in our fast-paced team. This role is all about supporting and coordinating the delivery of engaging and timely communications for both our colleagues and members. You’ll be responsible for managing a variety of content across multiple channels, from the staff intranet to email publications. This is an opportunity to truly make an impact by ensuring our internal messages are clear, on-brand, and reach the right audience.
Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.
You’ll be working closely with our Internal Communications and Engagement team to gather, write, and edit content that resonates with both staff and members. Whether it’s contributing to our regular publications, helping to produce content for events like our Town Halls, or maintaining our intranet and digital platforms, your role will be fundamental in keeping everyone informed and connected. You'll also have the chance to get involved in producing posters and digital screens, all while ensuring a seamless experience for our internal audiences.
A key part of your role will involve measuring the effectiveness of our communications efforts. You'll be tasked with gathering feedback and providing reports to help refine our approach and ensure that our channels are always working to their full potential. Plus, you’ll help manage our internal communications inboxes, responding to queries and requests from across the organisation with a keen eye for detail and a proactive attitude. If you enjoy a bit of variety, this role will certainly keep you busy with different ad hoc projects and support for internal events as well.
Our ideal candidate is someone with a background in internal communications, ideally with experience in intranet or web publishing systems. If you’ve worked in the charity sector, that’s a bonus. You’ll need to have excellent written communication skills, be a whizz at managing your time, and bring a flexible approach to the role. Above all, we need someone who’s enthusiastic about creating great content and keeping everyone informed in a way that feels fresh and engaging. If you’re looking for your next challenge, we’d love to hear from you.
You will be contracted to our London Hub, Haig House. Under our Future Working framework, there will be some flexibility for working remotely/at home, using our collaboration tools to work with colleagues, but with a minimum expectation of two days/week connecting directly face-to-face with colleagues at the hub.
