To support the delivery of the wider communications service's objectives, giving advice and support to colleagues on major campaigns.


To contribute content and ideas for council printed publications and digital channels, ensuring that content is tied to council objectives and priorities.

The award-winning Communications and Campaigns team is key to achieving the council's ambitions - telling the story of its priorities, campaigning on behalf of residents and businesses, and supporting the transformation of services for the people who use them.
