Form of work
SalaryProspectus is delighted to be collaborating with a non profit environmental think tank, developing research and analysis related to ecological limits, to recruit for an Interim Head of Communications on a 6 month contract. This role can be based in London or predominantly remotely, with an expectation for some regular in-person engagement at their London office (preference for 2 days per week in the office but some flexibility with this). Ideal start date mid-June, with a potential for this role to become permanent after the 6 months. This is a full time role but would also consider part time candidates (minimum 3 days per week).
This department operates with a largely outsourced model - this is a stand alone role with no internal team to manage (just external agencies). The Interim Head will be responsible for strategic communications and ensuring messages are delivered to key audiences, monitoring emerging trends and driving brand awareness. You will work with programmes to create programme specific communications and media plans and be responsible for crisis management. You will also support events and oversee design and production, and ensure strong internal communications.
The successful candidate will have broad communications experience with a good understanding of media, PR and with good agency management expertise. As this is a stand alone position you will have experience of overseeing both the strategic and operational aspects of the role, using external agencies when required. You will ideally have some experience working in a not for profit research organisation that publishes reports using data, or with suitable experience within the financial industry, as well as a passion for sustainability.
To apply please submit your CV in the first instance. Following your application, you may be contacted by Prospectus for an informal discussion and may be asked to provide further information to assist with the recruitment process.
