Senior Faculty Marketing and Communications Officer

The role

We’re looking for a collaborative and well-organised Senior Faculty Marketing and Communications Officer to help deliver impactful, joined-up communications that support a Faculty’s priorities and enhance its reputation.

Working within a number of Schools, you’ll play a key role in coordinating requests, aligning marketing activity with institutional strategy, and acting as a vital link between our Schools and the Division of Strategic Communications and Marketing.

Whether it’s helping to shape internal messaging, promoting world-class research, or supporting the development of creative campaigns, your work will ensure the right messages reach the right audiences in the right way.

This is a varied and hands-on role. One day you might be drafting an engaging staff newsletter, the next co-ordinating with divisional colleagues to plan and brief in a bespoke recruitment campaign.

You’ll need to be comfortable juggling multiple priorities, building strong relationships, and using your initiative to move things forward.

Please note that this is a fixed term contract concluding October 2026. 

What will you be doing?

• Coordinate internal communications to ensure timely, relevant, and aligned messaging with institutional priorities.
• Manage and triage marketing and communications requests, ensuring effective prioritisation and resource allocation.
• Develop clear, actionable briefs and collaborate with shared services to align faculty needs with available capabilities.
• Contribute to media engagement by identifying opportunities, tracking trends, and supporting content development.
• Collaborate with creative, digital, and internal teams to deliver effective, on-brand campaigns and materials.
• Support campaign delivery and evaluation, provide administrative assistance, and maintain strong cross-team relationships.

You should apply if

What you’ll bring: 

• Strong experience in marketing and communications, with a track record of delivering effective content and campaigns in complex environments.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tailor messages for different audiences and channels.
• Highly organised and proactive, with the ability to manage competing priorities, coordinate activity, and keep projects on track.
• Confident briefing in work, developing clear plans, and collaborating with creative, digital, and internal comms teams.
• Comfortable working with digital tools and platforms, including content management systems and email marketing software.
• Holds a relevant qualification or brings equivalent professional experience, with a collaborative mindset and a keen eye for detail.
