    Communications Manager - Oxford, United Kingdom - University of Oxford

    Default job background
    Full time, Fixed-Term/Contract
    Description

    Contract type: Fixed-term (externally funded to 31 October 2025 with the possibility of extension)

    This is an exciting opportunity to lead the communications for two high-profile and closely-linked initiatives at the cutting edge of climate change research. Based at the University of Oxford, the post sits across Oxford Net Zero and the Oxford-led CO2RE Hub, ensuring effective communication of high impact research and engagement to key target audiences. You will be part of the core administrative team for each initiative. For the Hub this includes the Hub Director, Project Manager and Administrator at Oxford, and a Stakeholder and Flexible Fund Manager at Imperial College London. For Oxford Net Zero this includes the Directors, Programme Manager, Administrator and the Head of Policy and Partnerships.

    You will work closely with the communications teams in the School of Geography and Environment (SoGE), Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment (SSEE) and the central University. You will also co-ordinate where needed with the teams in other Oxford departments contributing to Oxford Net Zero, and in other universities contributing to the Hub, particularly with colleagues at Imperial College London.

    You will lead the public relations activities and the production of communication outputs, media and publications; explore new ways of promoting the initiatives; develop and manage the website and social media channels; and develop links across relevant networks and partner Universities. You will form effective relationships with the experts in both initiatives, pro-actively identifying high-impact research and helping them design appropriate dissemination strategies.

    The successful candidate will be educated to degree level, or have equivalent professional experience. You will have extensive skills and experience in public relations, media management and outreach. You will have excellent writing skills and attention to detail; proven ability to produce clear, concise copy for online and offline publications; and the ability to summarise and review complex scientific material clearly and succinctly for a range of audiences. Extensive skills and experience communicating through print, digital and social media are essential.

    Applications are particularly welcome and encouraged from women, black, and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in posts in SoGE. SoGE is committed to equality and values diversity.

    The role is fixed term until 31 October 2025 with the possibility of extension.
