**Judicial Appointments Commission -Communications Manager (HEO)**

Are you a creative communicator with a passion for communicating with diverse audiences? Are you comfortable working across a range of communication channels and platforms? Can you help our teams reach new audiences by bringing our stories to life? If the answer is yes, you could be exactly who we are looking for.

**The Role**

Working across a range of channels, the Communications Manager will prepare outreach plans, support media enquiries, monitor and analyse our media coverage and ensure our website, social media channels, newsletters and internal communications products meet the needs of our audiences.

You should relish the challenge of working in a small but dynamic team, collaborating with colleagues who are passionate about the JAC’s mission.

**Main Responsibilities**

Reporting to the Senior Strategic Communications Manager, your main responsibilities will be to:

- Develop, implement, and evaluate communications campaigns (outreach) for JAC selection exercises, using a variety of channels to suit the audience.
- Create and publish written and visual content for JAC operations and policy teams across digital (including social media), print and internal channels.
- Provide communications support for JAC colleagues including managing the website and intranet, collating newsletters, supporting the handling of media enquiries, and media monitoring.
- Regularly evaluate communications campaigns and activity, analysing findings and making recommendations for change and improvement.
- Identify the best channels and formats for information and suggest ideas to reach relevant audiences
- Play a leading role on stakeholder interaction for the communications team including manage the stakeholder lists

We are a small team who work collaboratively, and the Communications Manager may need to get involved in other projects and work beyond what is listed above to support the wider D&E team (and wider organisation).

**Essential Criteria**
- excellent written and verbal communication skills
- excellent interpersonal skills and ability to build good working relationships with internal and external stakeholders
- strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects with varied deadlines
- Experience of producing content for a range of channels including digital, social and/or print
- strong team working skills and ability to work flexibly to support a small team.
- Knowledge of different communications channels and tools and ability to provide advice on the most appropriate channels depending on context and user needs.
- Strong IT and digital skills, including the ability to quickly learn to use unfamiliar software to a good standard, with appropriate training

**Desirable criteria**
- Knowledge of campaign planning methodology
- Knowledge of evaluating communication campaigns, including using web analytics tools, and how to use this data to improve communications

**What we can offer you**

We offer a range of benefits including an attractive annual leave allowance, flexible and hybrid working opportunities, and choice of pension schemes. We actively encourage all staff to undertake learning and development as part of their personal objectives.

While the JAC is an independent executive non-departmental public body, we are considered an arms-length body of the Ministry of Justice and share many of the same policies, processes and terms and conditions as Civil Servants employed directly by the MoJ. This includes being part of the MoJ pay remit, enabling transferees from other government departments to retain their continuity of service and Civil Service Pension arrangements.

Though located at Clive House, Petty France, London, SW1H 9AJ JAC staff are currently working in a hybrid way with some days in the office and some days working remotely. It will be necessary for the successful postholder to work at the JAC location regularly to support business need.

**Recruitment Process**

We’ll assess you against these behaviours during the recruitment process:

- Communicating and influencing
- Working Together
- Managing a Quality Service

**Application process**
- Your CV
- A statement of suitability detailing the relevant experience and skills you have that would make you suitable for the post (250 words max).
- Written evidence of 2 behaviours: Communicating and influencing and Working Together (250 words max per behaviour)

**Sift**

Applications will be sifted based on the CV, Statement of Suitability and the 2 behaviours: Communicating and Influencing
