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.
