  • Outstanding written and oral communication skills are critical, as this role will involve the co-ordination and drafting of first-time right communications on behalf of the Chair and Chief Executive, such as reports, letters, emails, press releases, speech scripts and recognition.
  • Developing influencing and negotiating skills, as you will be liaising externally with senior representatives, and internally, working closely with Senior Management Teams, the Executive Team, Trustees and Council members, staff and volunteers.

This role, whilst 37 hours per week, will require flexible working across all 7 days of the week; it is expected there will be a degree of weekend and evening work.
