Head of Strategic Communications

University Of Leeds (Medicine)
London

Do you want to be a pivotal part of an incredible organisation powering health and care research? Do you have experience of leading transformational strategic communications at a senior level? Are you confident working with senior stakeholders across government, and health and a range of other sectors?

This is truly an exciting time to be joining NIHR communications function. As Head of Strategic Communications, you will lead NIHR’s evolving approach to integrated and powerful strategic communications – critical to the new NIHR Communications Strategy. You will be responsible for leading key elements of the NIHR Communications Strategy, including overall NIHR communications planning, monitoring and evaluation, and the creation and delivery of a NIHR audience plan.

You will be a senior communications strategist with specialist expertise, knowledge and professional credibility in leading integrated communications plans – including creative campaigns - that shift understanding, attitudes and behaviours and build engagement in health and care research. This includes diverse people and communities across the nation, as well as stakeholders in the NHS and broader health and social care system.

This role requires some national travel.

This role will be based in the RDNCC office in Queen Street, Leeds or in Bishopsgate, London. We work in a hybrid way with an expectation that all RDNCC staff spend at least 40% of their time in the office. We are also open to discussing other flexible working arrangements.
