About the role

Working closely with the Director of Research and the research team, you will lead the articulation, presentation and dissemination of learning, insights and messages from our diverse portfolio of projects, supporting the continuous improvement of writing and research communications, and ensuring our work has the greatest possible impact.

As Director of Communications, you will be expected to work closely with the Director – who leads IVAR’s work with funders and supervises a range of individual projects – to help IVAR achieve its potential to influence and shape the operating environment for small charities.
