The global investment system has an oversized impact on challenges from the climate crisis and biodiversity loss to poverty and inequality. We want to make sure that impact is positive. At ShareAction we work with investors, policymakers and individuals to unleash the positive potential of the investment system. We aim to build a world where our financial system serves our planet and its people.

**Team**

This role is part of ShareAction’s dynamic communications team, which leads media and digital activity, manages the website and publications, and ensures a consistent and compelling brand story. Our four-person press office carry out reactive and proactive media relations to position ShareAction as a thought leader on responsible investment, and shape impactful media activity to support the goals of our campaigns on tackling climate change, championing fair treatment of workers, protecting nature and shaping healthier societies, as well as advocacy towards the UK government and EU institutions.

- Draft media materials including press releases, briefings and op eds to communicate ShareAction’s work in an accessible and engaging manner to target public and specialist audiences.
- Support colleagues across the organisation to engage effectively with the media, by briefing and preparing talking points and Q&As and facilitating spokesperson training sessions.
- Build and maintain relationships with key journalists and commentators across specialist and mainstream media. Keep up to date with relevant news and trends and identify opportunities to promote our messages.
- Work with the Senior Media Manager to monitor, evaluate and regularly report on media activity.
- Be a brand champion, ensuring content is aligned with tone of voice, house style and messaging guidelines (all of which you’ll receive training on).
- Demonstrate a commitment to ShareAction’s values (independence, courage, persistence, inclusivity and respect) and vision of a world where the financial system serves our planet and its people.

**Requirements**:
**What you’ll bring to the team**
- Some experience working in a press office, agency or as a journalist and a track record of securing positive coverage.

- With great interpersonal skills, you’ll be able to build productive relationships with colleagues across the organisation and key external contacts.
- You’ll be passionate about ShareAction’s vision of a world where the financial system serves our planet and people, and committed to our values of independence, courage, persistence, and respect.
