Senior Communications Officer

We have an exciting opportunity for a Communications & Events Officer to join our team at Icon, the Institute of Conservation, a charity and professional membership organisation dedicated to safeguarding cultural heritage and championing the conservation profession.

Icon’s Communications & Events Officer will be responsible for the organisation’s communications to stakeholders and the wider public and will actively support the annual Icon Events Programme.

Through a range of communications – social, digital, and traditional – you will ensure Icon’s profile and reach is improved both within the cultural heritage sector and beyond. Working closely with Icon’s Membership Officer and Business & Projects Officer, you will ensure aligned communications maximise engagement across all audiences and help achieve financially successful initiatives and campaigns. The role will support media activity for the charity, ensuring both proactive and reactive strands reflect the mood of the conservation sector and contribute to the wider heritage conversation.

You will support key colleagues with the delivery of Icon’s core annual events programme, which includes Icon’s Conference, Annual Lecture, AGM, and Members’ Meeting and will bring your creativity, experience and eye for detail to underpin successful delivery.
