Make your mark with people make it work

Communications and Engagement Manager

Deadline for applications 12pm on the 4th April, 2022

We are looking to appoint a Communications & Engagement Manager who has the skills and ability to take our organisation to the next level through enhancing the people make it work brand.

This is a wonderful opportunity for an experienced communications and engagement professional to join people make it work at a time of significant development and challenge for the cultural sector. We are looking for an individual who brings highly developed written and oral communication skills. You will have excellent copywriting skills and a keen eye for detail. This role requires someone that is comfortable working in a very small, fast paced organisation, so, you must be a self-starter, able to use your initiative to get tasks completed in good time and to a really high standard and be a brilliant communicator and collaborator with internal and external stakeholders. Of equal importance to us is finding people who share our mission to be awesome, transformational, deliver exceptional service and ensure inclusivity for all.

We are clear that to do this with vision and confidence we must have a greater diversity of voices, and so we are particularly keen to hear from candidates from backgrounds currently under-represented in our leadership and governance (Black, Asian and other ethnically diverse candidates and those who identify as D/deaf or disabled). 

If you think you would enjoy the challenge of helping us and share our ambitions to create an inclusive, diverse, sustainable organisation, we would be delighted to hear from you.

So, write us a letter (no longer than two sides of A4), a 4-minute video or voice memo – whatever you are comfortable with. Or, if you have any other access requirements in order to apply, please contact Sandeep Mahal s.mahal@peoplemakeitwork.com
