Job description

Overview

Are you a dynamic storyteller with a flair for integrated communications? Do you want to shape narratives that matter—locally, regionally and globally? Join the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID), Singapore’s trusted leader in infectious disease management. At NCID and Tan Tock Seng Hospital, we don’t just respond to health threats—we lead the conversation around them. We’re looking for a Communications Executive who’s ready to make an impact in an organisation that’s at the heart of Singapore’s public health ecosystem. This is a chance to craft communications that educate, influence, and protect the population. The appointment will be exposed to the full spectrum of the communications scope: manage media relations, marketing communications, issues and outbreak communications, website, and events management/advisory.

What You’ll Do

• Media Strategy & Thought Leadership: Build strong relationships with journalists, craft compelling stories, and position NCID as a thought leader in infectious diseases.
• Crisis & Outbreak Communications: Managing sensitive issues, outbreaks, and crises with clarity and credibility.
• Digital & Social Media Innovation: Lead social media strategy with engaging, original content that drives awareness and engagement.
• Integrated Campaigns & Branding: Develop impactful marketing materials that strengthen NCID’s reputation and reinforce public trust.
• Advisory & Partnerships: Work closely with key stakeholders including national agencies and public healthcare institutions to ensure unified and consistent messaging.

What We’re Looking For

• A degree in Public Relations, Communications, Journalism or related disciplines.
• 2–3 years’ experience in either an in-house comms role or a PR consultancy.
• A creative mind, strong writing skills, and the ability to distill complex topics into accessible, meaningful content.
• A calm, solutions-oriented communicator with a keen eye for detail.
• Good understanding of social media platforms (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, etc.) and what content performs best on each.
• Hands-on experience with social media management tools (e.g. Hootsuite, Sprout Social, Meta Business Suite).
• Proficient in basic content creation and editing tools (e.g. Canva, Adobe Creative Suite, CapCut).
• Knowledge of social media best practices, trends, and algorithms.
