The centre of your role as the Directorate’s Communications and Engagement Lead will be customer management and communications. The Information Directorate is at the centre of transforming the British Army into the modern, digital and data centric force the nation needs, and NATO wants. We have a wide range of stakeholders including ministers, defence, government and industry we need to inform. We have a major role in international events such as the Defence and Security Equipment International exhibition, where we must demonstrate the transformation that is underway. You will be responsible for this engagement and communication.
You will need to be self-motivated and inspiring to ensure others fully understand the Directorate’s requirements and outputs. You will be encouraged to display a commitment to continuous improvement, leading change, and improving performance.
This is an established position within the six-person Strategy pillar, reporting directly to the Chief of Staff and then to Director Information, the Army’s Chief Information Officer. As the significance of the Directorate’s role within the Army has increased, so too has the importance of our communications and engagement.
The communications and engagement manager’s key responsibilities include:
Support the Senior Executive Officer (SEO) in building the branding and reputation of the directorate by communicating internally and externally the purpose and work conducted within the Directorate
Play a key role in the delivery of all engagement activity across the directorate, supporting both technical and generalist customers
Proactively maintain working relationships with key stakeholders across Army, Defence and Industry to understand actions required of the Directorate, addressing issues as the arise with a view to providing coherent, timely and accurate outputs
Cohere with the outputs with Army Communications and Engagement for narrative purposes as well as Army Secretary for policy
Lead with the delivery of internal, Directorate communications such as townhalls
Proactively seek out and exploit Directorate good news stories and communicate them to the Army, Defence and wider
Support the SEO in delivering Directorate input into Defence and Industry events such as DSEI, Industry days and Civil Service recruiting events
Support the SEO in delivering products such as presentations, leaflets, videos, articles and blogs
Support the wider Strat pillar in delivering Directorate wide outputs and change programmes
This opportunity will place you at the centre of digital transformation, requiring you to work across directorates and closely with Defence level organisations and industry
(Remote working within this role is something that can be discussed at interview stages or with your future line manager if you are found successful.)
