As a member of CTP’s national governance and management boards you will provide expertise, counsel and guidance to CTP’s senior leadership on all communications matters, and on wider issues of reputation, public confidence and brand. You will also make a wider contribution to CTP’s work through active engagement on people issues, by promoting inclusion, diversity and equality and by setting the highest personal and professional standards personally and across CTP Communications.

You will connect CTP Communications at a senior level with partners across policing, government, and the national security community as well as other organisations and bodies that can support CTP’s mission.

You will ensure that CTP Communications is innovative and dynamic and able to respond effectively to evolving threats, a challenging external environment and an ever-changing communications landscape.

We need someone who is instinctively attuned to operating – and leading public communications – within a national security environment, often communicating on challenging and highly sensitive issues.

We need an individual with vision, energy and creative flair to lead a high-performing, national network of communicators, who sets high personal standards and motivates others to do the same.

We need someone with experience of the full range of communications functions, so that you can direct a multi-faceted communications network and lead others with authority and empathy.

We are looking for an individual with the interpersonal skills and influence to build relationships and networks of trust across and beyond government, policing and the national security community.

A calm temperament and experience planning for and responding to crises is a real advantage.
