Job description

Communications Officer (Estates and Facilities)

This role will be based on the university campus, with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.

Are you an excellent collaborator, comfortable supporting engagement with diverse teams? Can you create campaigns to support the communication of strategic projects critical to the student experience? Are you organised, planned and can measure the effectiveness of your communications?

Working in the Facilities Directorate (FD) as part of the Marketing, Sales and Communications team, you will ensure that the FD’s Estates and Facilities team can deliver their critical work by facilitating the flow of information between Faculties, Estates colleagues, external contractors, and University stakeholders. Your work will be vital in ensuring the University community understands key estate projects and supports minimizing campus disruptions through effective engagement. With an ongoing capital investment programme to deliver student-focused campus improvements and the sector-leading Campus Reimagined project recently launched, this is an exciting time to join the team in a busy role.

You will work closely with project managers and contractors to create communications and content for various audience channels and manage the successful social media accounts that promote campus improvement initiatives.

Aligning with the FD’s Business Plan and the University’s Strategy, the role includes proactively supporting communication needs for essential services such as Security and Cleaning, as well as reactive work related to campus disruptions.

You should have at least three years’ experience in a relevant role, with proven ability to plan, deliver, and evaluate effective communications and campaigns. Experience in explaining complex or technical information to a lay audience and strong relationship management skills are essential.
