Description

Our small but perfectly formed communications and engagement team is looking for two brilliant communications and engagement officers who share our love of creating great content and can bring health care to life for the half a million people in our local population.


If you're a comms or engagement professional there is no better place than the NHS to flex your creative muscles.

You will have boundless opportunities to develop campaigns that help people live healthier lives, make headlines by creating exciting media opportunities, inform and engage our workforce of 13,000 colleagues in new and innovative ways, and help communities get involved and enthused in shaping the services we provide.


If you can help Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board tell its story, we can help you to enjoy a career where no two days are the same and where you will be supported to be the best you can be.


The post holder will help to deliver an excellent communications and engagement service to a range of stakeholders, including staff, patients, public, media, and partner organisations.


Working as part of a dedicated and skilled team, the Communications and Engagement Officer will use excellent communications skills and creativity to engage, enthuse, persuade and influence audiences.

They will use their experience, together with motivational and negotiating skills, to guide staff, committees and senior managers on appropriate responses to complex issues, protecting and maintaining the reputation of CTMUHB and the NHS at all times.


They will be required to work independently, using their own initiative and judgement to deal with enquiries and requests for support from internal and external audiences.

They will use good judgement to escalate issues to senior colleagues as appropriate, and seek support from peers as required.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; English and/or Welsh speakers are equally welcome to apply.
