Description

As an essential public service, we must communicate effectively with all the communities we serve.

You will be equally comfortable developing strategy and supporting live operational issues whilst leading and inspiring a small but highly motivated team. You will already have an innate sense of how to reach our many audiences with the right message, at the right time, using the right channel.

If you thrive in an environment which is fast paced and makes a difference to the public we serve, we would like to hear from you!
