Help Shape Culture and Capability at Nottingham City Council
Our new Change Delivery service is growing – and we’re looking for a talented Communications & Engagement Officer to help us bring our transformation story to life.
You’ll work closely with our Organisational Development & Culture Lead to craft compelling internal communications and meaningful engagement strategies that support Nottingham City Council’s Improvement Plan and cultural change journey. This is a fantastic opportunity to help shape how we connect with staff, build trust, and drive participation in the change that’s happening across the organisation.
Communications & Engagement Officer
Job Purpose
As our Communications & Engagement Officer, you’ll develop and deliver creative, insight-led communications that support organisational change, cultural transformation, and staff engagement. You’ll play a key role in promoting our OD programmes, sharing success stories, and helping leaders and teams talk confidently about change.
You’ll also lead campaigns, create engaging content for our internal platforms, and support teams across the Council to communicate clearly, consistently, and inclusively.
Key Responsibilities
* Lead internal campaigns that bring our transformation programmes and cultural ambitions to life
* Write and publish content for channels including the intranet, staff newsletters, and internal social media
* Develop inclusive engagement approaches – from townhalls and workshops to surveys and polls
* Work closely with teams across the organisation to identify and share success stories
* Support managers and leaders to communicate effectively with their teams about change
* Analyse feedback and engagement data to understand what’s landing and where we can do better
* Champion inclusive, evidence-led approaches to communications and engagement
* Stay ahead of best practice and test new ways to reach and inspire staff
This post is covered by the statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) (English Language Requirement for public sector workers) and therefore the ability to speak fluent English is an essential requirement.
* You may be required to work at other locations as part of the role.
