Crynodeb

We’re looking for someone who can travel to different places in Kent and Medway to help share our stories. You’ll join a busy, friendly communications team, working with our 3,800 staff and many others outside the Trust—like newspapers, other NHS teams, and local community groups.

Your job will be to help people feel connected, make sure our work is well known, and protect our good reputation. You’ll show that mental health is just as important as physical health, use our new logo and style so everything looks right, and support big projects that matter to us.

You’ll create written and digital content, including short videos for our social media channels, to help staff, patients, and partners see and hear what we’re doing. If you enjoy meeting people, telling stories, and using creative ideas to share news, this role could be for you.
• To help produce and implement effective and creative communication campaigns, content and activity – using digital and traditional channels and platforms - that meet their KPIs and engage target audiences (internal and external) in support of KMPT’s strategic priorities.
• To proactively build relationships across the Trust, with our patients and partners to find stories and case studies that help generate internal and external content.
• To produce engaging content for internal and external audiences that is suitable for use across the full range of our channels – this will include written work, multimedia content such as short-form (social media style) videos, graphics and gifs, wider social media content, and supporting colleagues to create print and digital collateral.
• To write content for and regularly update the trust’s website, intranet and regular internal and external newsletters.
• To support media relations activities and manage sensitive issues effectively, as needed, including writing and issuing quotes, statements and news releases, supporting personnel undertaking media interviews and liaising with journalists/answering their queries.
• To help organise and publicise events as appropriate, for example staff engagement and listening events, public boards, and our Long Service Awards.

Come and work with us in the Garden of England where we combine exceptional professional development opportunities with a tremendous quality of life.
