Head of Communications

7 days ago


Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom Cambridgeshire County Council Full time

Cambridgeshire is a great place to work and live, with a diverse population, an urban centre in Cambridge, the historic Isle of Ely, Huntingdon and St Ives as well as more rural landscapes. Though large areas of the county are pretty low-lying, you’ll find the atmosphere at the Council anything but flat.

Our vision is to create a greener, fairer and more caring Cambridgeshire, and we’re already making significant progress towards this objective. If you’re ready to bring your professional experience and skills to a well-managed and high-performing organisation, with a strong and ambitious culture of continuous improvement, we want to hear from you.

In this key role, you’ll be the senior communications expert to elected members, the Chief Executive and the council-wide leadership team. You’ll oversee highly effective planned external relations, campaigns, internal communications, stakeholder engagement and our digital channels. We’ll also look to you for leadership on responsive press and media work, and you’ll have a sophisticated grasp of managing the council’s brand profile and reputation.

It’s a full-spectrum communications role, so we’re looking for a full-spectrum professional. You’ll bring class-leading technical expertise, with a deft, agile and adaptable approach to leading an ambitious and self-improving team. Candidates must have impressive experience of developing and delivering effective internal and external communications, information, marketing, and engagement strategies which support strategic delivery. A relevant professional qualification (i.e. CIPR/CIM) would be a distinct advantage.

You’ll be strongly motivated by working in a complex, place-shaping organisation with ambitious strategic objectives. Extensive experience of campaign planning and delivery is essential, as is a comprehensive knowledge of press, print and digital channels and tools. Your track record will include numerous examples of producing highly effective strategic campaigns with measurable outputs, as well as leading a high-performing team of specialists. As a member of the council’s extended leadership team, you’ll exemplify our values, and contribute to creating a compassionate and inclusive workplace.
