- Editorial support for the quarterly staff magazine. Produce and distribute our weekly all-staff e-newsletter.
- Develop and proofread internal communications for colleagues.
- Support organisation and promotion of internal events, both in-person and virtual.

**Knowledge and experience**

We’re looking for an enthusiastic, highly organised individual with excellent communication skills, who is self-motivated and confident working across multiple projects simultaneously.
We’re looking for someone who can analyse complex information and package this as clear, accessible content that meets the needs of a diverse audience.

You also need to be confident using your initiative to ask questions and suggest news ways of working, and to be comfortable liaising with colleagues and stakeholders in various roles and levels of seniority.

**Person specification - specific knowledge and experience**

**Essential**:
