Our Future Health will be the UK’s largest ever health research programme, bringing people together to develop new ways to detect, prevent, and treat diseases. Diseases like cancer, dementia, diabetes, and heart disease affect the lives of many people in our communities. Our goal is to create a world-leading resource for health research, to improve our understanding and spot the patterns of how and why common diseases start, so treatments can begin sooner and be more effective.

We are hiring a Director of Corporate Communications to ensure that every communication - from press releases and social media posts, to internal announcements and stakeholder briefings - resonates with authenticity, driving our mission forward.

As a strategic leader in communications, you will craft and deliver our narrative - developing an integrated communications strategy and compelling messaging that encapsulates our mission, values, and achievements - overall enhancing our brand reputation.

Your responsibilities will include:

Strategic Communications Leadership: 

• Develop, implement, and continuously refine an integrated corporate communications strategy that aligns with Our Future Health’s mission and strategic pillars. 

• Define clear measurable objectives and KPIs for communications activities, ensuring every message supports our broader goals.

• Work collaboratively with and support the marketing teams to understand the stories related to our mission and goals that will support their activities and lead the development of this content. 

• Oversee guidelines and frameworks for brand style and messaging that will be used by the marketing teams in the preparation of content and materials that will be used for the direct communication with participants and researchers in relation to the sale / delivery of our products and services. 

• Review the materials prepared by marketing teams, identifying and agreeing changes for content that is not aligned with brand guidelines and/or which could create reputational risk, whilst otherwise giving them the freedom to determine what is best for their “customers”. 

Internal Communications and Stakeholder Engagement: 

• Oversee the development and distribution of internal communications that keep employees informed, motivated, and aligned with our mission. 

• Collaborate closely with other functional leaders to ensure that internal messaging is integrated with external communications, and that staff are able to support and reinforce the external messaging. 

Team and Agency Management: 

• Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing communications team, fostering a collaborative and innovative culture. 

• Manage external agencies and consultants as required to support integrated communications programs. 

Requirements

Professional Experience:

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to simplify complex issues for diverse audiences.
