We’re looking for an experienced, driven and creative Senior Communications Officer to join our small, friendly integrated team where you’ll get the chance to build your skills across all areas of DCMS work.

We work closely with Ministers, private offices, policy teams and special advisors to identify proactive media opportunities for Ministers and to promote the department’s work, plan media events and manage reactive media enquiries.
