Communications Manager (What Works Hub for Global Education)
£46913
University of Oxford, Norham Manor, Oxford
- Onsite working
- Full time
- Temporary
Full Job Description
You will work in the What Works Hub for Global Education which is an international partnership working out how to implement education reforms at scale, with the ultimate goal of increasing literacy, numeracy and other key skills in low- and middle-income countries.
In the team you will communicate the programme's mission and findings to a range of audiences - from policy makers in target countries, to leading global academics and international organisations. This will involve managing the Hub's website and social media channels, creating and disseminating content, overseeing briefings and events and coordinating with implementation partners in country.
This post is fixed term until 31 August 2027 and offered on a full time basis (we would welcome applications of a minimum of 0.8 FTE)
You will be a communications professional who wants to make a contribution on important global issues and is passionate about improving education outcomes. You can get your head around research and policy ideas easily and are comfortable working with academic researchers. You are responsive enough to deliver fast on their priorities and win trust, but assured enough to offer ideas about more effective or efficient ways to deliver their objectives. You will be ready to support your team members and the wider activities going on around you; while still ensuring you deliver on your core duties.
You will need outstanding written communication skills, with a concise, compelling style, strong written accuracy, and an ability to closely tailor your writing to the audience, eliminating jargon and acronyms. Experience of working with academic researchers would be desirable.
