The Growth Company’s Business Growth Hub team have an exciting new opportunity for a Stakeholder Communications Manager. The role will deliver effective PR and communications to raise the profile and positioning of the Growth Company and GM Business Growth Hub as a leading deliverer of business support, and highlight our role in supporting Greater Manchester’s economic growth ambitions.

The Business Growth Hub (BGH) supports businesses across Greater Manchester with expert advice on funding, innovation, people, sales and sustainability. We provide tailored support to meet the needs of each business at every stage of its growth journey.

Please note that candidates successfully shortlisted for interview will be invited to attend a face-to-face interview on 17 August 2026.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop and deliver a stakeholder communications plan in collaboration with the Communications Business Partner to support strategic objectives.
Deliver targeted, impactful communications across multiple platforms to engage a wide range of audiences, with a focus on Greater Manchester stakeholders.
Work closely with internal teams to coordinate messaging and ensure alignment across the Group’s services and campaigns.
Proactively identify and communicate key messages and success stories that highlight the organisation’s impact and value to external stakeholders.
Manage media relations, including press engagement and crisis communications, to support the stakeholder communications strategy.
Lead digital communications including social media, newsletters, and website content to enhance visibility and engagement.
Evaluate the effectiveness of stakeholder communications and report on outcomes to inform future strategy.
Support high-profile stakeholder events and contribute to wider event planning and delivery across the organisation.

About You:

Motivating and inspiring with a confident, professional presence and the ability to build strong relationships at all levels.
Highly organised and adaptable, with a proactive mindset and the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
Comfortable working independently or as part of a team, with a collaborative approach to problem-solving and innovation.
Skilled at both creating and bringing fresh ideas while challenging the status quo to improve communications impact.
Willing to work flexibly, including occasional evenings or weekends, to support key events and communications activity.

Skills Required:

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with strong copywriting and storytelling abilities.
Proven experience in stakeholder communications, media relations, and campaign delivery across digital and traditional platforms.
Ability to translate complex topics into clear, engaging messages tailored to diverse audiences.
Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to influence and engage stakeholders across public and private sectors.
Proficiency in digital tools including social media platforms, email marketing systems, and content management systems.
Experience in evaluating communications performance and using insights to refine strategy.
Knowledge of economic development, policy, and the political landscape in Greater Manchester is highly desirable.
Graduate calibre or equivalent experience in journalism, communications, or a related field.

We are currently unable to provide sponsorship for work permits or visas. Therefore, we can only consider candidates who already have the legal right to work in the UK.

Artificial intelligence can assist you during the application process, but every example and statement you include must be honest, accurate, and based on your own real experiences. If plagiarism is detected, meaning you present someone else’s ideas or experiences, or AI‑generated content, as your own, your application may be withdrawn, and internal applicants could face disciplinary action.

At GC, safeguarding the welfare of all individuals including vulnerable adults and young people is a top priority, and we expect all staff to uphold this standard. All appointments follow Safer Recruitment Procedures, including a DBS check carried out by Due Diligence Limited (DDC Ltd), at no cost to the successful candidate.

Please note: It is a legal offence to apply for a role involving regulated activity if you are on the Barred List.

We are committed to increasing workforce diversity and offer a guaranteed interview to applicants who meet the essential criteria and either have a disability or are from a diverse ethnic community.

If this applies to you, you can request consideration under this scheme during the application process. Your request will be shared only with the Hiring Manager and Internal Recruitment Team.

We also aim to make our recruitment process inclusive and accessible. If you need reasonable adjustments or have any general enquiries at any stage or the recruitment process, please contact [email protected] or call us on 0161 237 4447.

Examples include:

Meeting the hiring manager or touring the venue in advance.
Extra time for tasks.
Interview questions shared beforehand.
Accessibility software or equipment for assessments.

We’re proud to support the Ban the Box campaign, which helps people with convictions access job opportunities. As part of this, we’ve removed questions about convictions from the initial application stage.

GC is committed to fostering a culture of flexibility and agile working. Many roles will increasingly support full agile arrangements. If you require more permanent flexibility, we encourage you to discuss this during your interview so your request can be considered early in the process.

All GC colleagues will work in line with the Health and Safety at work act and the GC Health and Safety Policy.
