The ethical and business case of ensuring that our workforce is representative of wider society is at the heart of what we do. When we are recruiting, disabled candidates who meet all of the essential criteria will be offered an interview.

About the role

Are you an innovative communicator, energised by the opportunity to work in the heart of Westminster on the big political challenges of our time? If you bring compelling storytelling skills, excellent media networks and a creative, entrepreneurial approach, we would love to hear from you.

At a time when political, social and economic challenges are growing in the UK and abroad, the stories Demos is here to tell – of the power of democracy, citizen voice and radical new approaches to technology, public services and the economy – have never been more important. This is a career-defining opportunity to play a key role in shaping the voice of one of the UK’s most dynamic and influential think tanks, as we enter an exciting new phase of growth.

You will report to the Director of Policy and Impact, and will be responsible for designing and delivering a compelling communications strategy to grow Demos’ profile, reach and external impact. You will be excited by the opportunity to work on some of the most pressing and complex policy challenges, such as national renewal, growth and mission-led government, ensuring Demos’ voice is heard by the audiences that matter most to us, including MPs, journalists, civil society organisations, and industry.

Line managing our Content and Production Officer to provide high-quality design and content production support across our project work, you will be experienced working across media, socials and in-house channels (e.g. newsletters) to create and respond to opportunities for impact. A skilled storyteller, you will write, edit, coordinate and publish content across multiple channels, ensuring consistent, distinctive tone of voice and strong and clear narrative in the crowded communications spaces we work in. 

You will bring keen understanding of the power of brand, including visual identity, to drive impact, and will be confident using data and analytics to inform and improve our communications strategy. 

What we offer

• Generous leave entitlement: 27 days + Bank holidays + 3 additional days off between Christmas and New Year
• Enhanced pension contribution: 6%
• Enhanced sick pay
• Enhanced parental leave
• A forward-thinking, supportive and collaborative team

At Demos we centre staff wellbeing as a key priority; we will make every effort to ensure staff feel happy, healthy and valued as part of our integral team.

DIEJ at Demos

At Demos, we recognise, celebrate and promote the positive contributions that are made by diverse groups. We exist to proactively tackle social and economic exclusion and engaging with and promoting the voices of people whose voices may not otherwise be heard is core to our work. We believe that this should be reflected in our team and we strongly encourage applications from people from minority ethnic communities, people with disabilities, or others with lived experience of disadvantage. We expect all members of our team to recognise and value differences and the unique contributions that people make to the way we conduct our work and develop our insights, and encourage people to bring their diverse perspectives and backgrounds into their work on a day-to-day basis. We have flexible working policies and would be happy to discuss flexible working requirements with any candidates. Read our full DIEJ policy on our website. 

Smoking is the largest preventable cause of death and disease in the UK and accounts for half the difference in life expectancy between the richest and poorest in society. In 2025, the Government will bring in landmark new laws, making the UK the first country in the world to phase out the sale of tobacco to future generations. We are looking for a proactive communicator and storyteller to join our ambitious and supportive team at a critical time to influence the political direction and wider narrative on tobacco and vaping in Westminster, the NHS and local government.

ASH has recently agreed a new five-year strategy and effective and impactful communications is a critical part of achieving our influencing goals. The Communications Lead will be responsible for our digital and social channels, developing compelling content and copy, as well as managing our media presence and working with journalists to secure coverage of our messages, research and reports.  There’s no such thing as a typical day: you could be involved in everything from creating a social post to explain the implications of a new policy, advising the team on new content ideas for the website, liaising with a national newspaper to comment on breaking news or managing the design of a key report for policymakers.

About the candidate

We encourage individuals to apply even if they don't meet every single criteria listed below, as we value potential, proactivity, transferable skills, and a strong desire to learn and contribute to our mission.

1. Previous experience in a focused communications role managing digital, social and media relations. This could be in an agency, NGO, government department or in-house.

2. Experience of developing strategic communications and developing new ideas and approaches based on insights or evidence.

3. Experience of working with journalists and core understanding of how the media works and what makes a good story.

4. Excellent written and verbal communication skills including the ability to express complicated messages simply and with authority.

5. Experience and understanding of web publishing tools (e.g. WordPress, Craft, Drupal) for content creation and editing

6. Proven ability and experience with building and maintain professional relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, including journalists, partner organisations, contractors and health professionals.

7. A good level of software expertise, including MS Office packages and web-based platforms. Knowledge and experience of Adobe Creative Suite and Canva an advantage.

8. A flexible approach to working and a willingness to support colleagues across the organisation

9. Strong organisational skills – including excellent record keeping, and an ability to independently manage workload and work to deadlines, while responding to current events.

10.  Enthusiasm for, and commitment to, the aims and objectives of ASH and an interest in public health more broadly. Understanding of policy influencing and government relations would be an advantage, but not essential.

Interviews will be held at our office in Vauxhall on 7th May. If cost is a barrier to attending a London-based interview, please let us know and we can help with booking your travel.
