One of the main aspects of your role will be responding to incoming queries from the media and participating in the round-the-clock duty rota. This will involve proactively monitoring for breaking news and coverage that might require correction or clarification, providing swift and effective responses to requests for comment and keeping the department abreast of developments.
To be successful in this role, you will be confident in turning complex information into clear content that resonates with diverse audiences. You’ll be responsible for developing innovative communication plans across multiple platforms, beyond traditional print and broadcast media, working creatively with colleagues on digital and social media channels to reach different audiences. An essential part of this role is collaboration, and you will work closely with ministers, communication professionals and other stakeholders to create clear communication strategies and finalise messaging.
Responsibilities will be:
- Reactive media and press management – managing breaking stories, drafting and providing timely lines to take and accurate information to journalists, and keeping the department updated.
- Proactive media handling – drafting proactive press releases and communications handling plans that tells the government’s story in a clear and succinct way. You will work with policy colleagues and Special Advisers to agree key messages and plans to maximise ministerial time, including on visits.
- News management – the ability to quickly spot both potential problems but also opportunities to insert a government voice positively.
- Digital communications - helping government create, shape, share and exchange information through online and virtual networks.
With the support of an experienced network of peers and a strong focus on professional development, you will develop skills in line with these areas.
