London, Greater London, United Kingdom Climate Litigation Network Full time

The new role of Strategic Communications Manager offers a unique opportunity to co-create the communications strategy for a growing, mission-driven organisation at the cutting edge of climate litigation and contribute to the climate justice movement worldwide.

ABOUT THE ROLE. CLN is a non-profit foundation that supports partners across the world to drive stronger climate action through litigation against high-emitting actors. We are now looking for a new Strategic Communications Manager to help us leverage the power of this litigation to shape global narratives that will exert pressure on governments and companies to take urgent climate action. Key responsibilities include:

● Develop CLN's communications strategy for shifting narratives in support of climate action. You will do this in collaboration with CLN leadership and partners, including national legal and advocacy teams, international organisations and existing communications networks. This will include identifying proactive and reactive shared communications strategies that partners in our field can execute to maximise the impact of climate litigation and drive the message globally that climate action is a legal duty.

● Identify, develop and implement strategies to shift global media narratives on high-profile government and corporate cases. This will include crafting a global narrative or narratives around legal action, connecting that with wider climate efforts, and establishing strong working relationships with key international journalists as well as PR teams within relevant partners to ensure the right story is being told on this critical issue.

● Identify and develop opportunities within the global network of climate litigators to enhance collaboration and knowledge sharing in relation to communications and advocacy strategies to support climate litigation. This should include contributing to monitoring, evaluation and reporting on communications, ensuring this work results in actionable insights that can feed back into strategies and ongoing campaigns.

● Champion and communicate the ongoing successes and impacts of climate cases in CLN's network. This will include acting as an information broker for other climate campaigners and communicators to ensure cases are properly understood and amplified by other climate, environmental and human rights groups. It will also involve developing case studies to effectively communicate around cases and their impacts.

● Support national teams by providing guidance as needed on strategic communications and how to fit national campaigns into the global conversation around climate litigation and accountability.

● Identify and address strategic communications capacity gaps across our network. This will include identifying and addressing training needs for spokespeople (both at CLN and across our partner network), messaging and framing, and digital campaigns and advocacy.

● Lead on managing and maintaining CLN's external communications. This will include defining our external positioning, maintaining our website and relevant social media channels, and responding to media enquiries.

Given the start-up and evolving nature of our organisation, we expect that there may be changes to how this role works in practice once the right candidate is in post.

OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE

You will have...

● A proven record of using communication strategies to successfully influence target audiences and help shape public narratives around critical and urgent issues.

● A proven record of bringing together a wide range of stakeholders, either at global or regional level, to work collaboratively on a common goal or issue.

● Outstanding English language skills and demonstrated ability to produce engaging and impactful written materials.

● Demonstrated experience leading communications strategy for a mission-driven organisation.

● A commitment to climate justice, human rights, and existing knowledge of the climate law and/or policy field.

● A creative and innovative approach to strategic communications, with great storytelling instincts.

● An entrepreneurial and collegiate approach to work, including a passion for collaborating with a broad range of partners worldwide to build impact.

● Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to work with teams across different geographies and from different cultures.

● Strong project management skills.

● Ability to work in a hybrid organisation and with remote partners.

● Strong alignment with CLN's values and commitment to our vision and mission, and a commitment to building a trust-based, inclusive and empowering organisation.

Note to candidates: We know that some candidates will not apply for a role unless they feel they are 100% qualified. If you feel you meet at least some of the essential criteria above, we still encourage you to apply.



WHY JOIN CLN?

● The unique opportunity to co-create the communications strategy for a mission-driven organisation at the cutting edge of climate litigation, and contribute to the climate justice movement worldwide.

● Opportunity to work with a dynamic team of highly skilled professionals who combine their expertise with a passion to make a difference.
