Senior Marketing Communications Officer

Palace St, London

£37,500 - £42,342
 

DFID supports long term programmes to help tackle the underlying causes of poverty. DFID also responds to emergencies, both natural and man-made. Its work forms part of a global promise to meet the Millennium Development Goals agreed by the United Nations to fight poverty and disease, improve health provision and access to education and promote gender equality.

DFID works in partnership with governments, civil society, the private sector and others. It also works with multi-lateral institutions, including the World Bank, United Nations agencies and the European Commission. DFID works in numerous counties worldwide, has 36 offices overseas and two headquarters in London and East Kilbride, near Glasgow.

Communications Division has been re-organised, with a new Head of News, to serve the department and Ministers better and to deliver our new communications strategy, which puts a renewed focus on briefing stories proactively.

This post is responsible for leading on the development and delivery of key DFID marketing and communications activities and for supporting the Head of Campaigns and Marketing in delivering key organisational priorities. Success in planning, developing and leading major mass market public facing marketing campaigns is essential, as is the ability to think strategically, communicate effectively and manage a team.

This post will appeal to an experienced campaigns and marketing professional who can build on audience insight to ensure the work of DFID is effectively communicated to the UK public.
