Amnesty UK's media team is called upon by most departments to showcase, promote and publicise their work. There is no campaign, event, stunt, publication, piece of research or other product which doesn't look to the press team for support and press coverage. 

In many ways, the media team bookends much of the organisation's most high-profile campaigning work - starting with media strategies, through to crafting messaging, briefing spokespeople, issuing press releases, connecting with journalists and setting up interviews. The media coverage achieved is often considered to be a key indicator in how a campaign or report has performed against the organisation's objectives.

The media work on these campaign areas will be designed to deliver real human rights change and help increase the number of Amnesty supporters in the UK.

You will also monitor breaking news stories to ensure Amnesty UK reacts quickly and powerfully. And be part of an out of hours on call rota.
