Head of Internal Communications

National Oceanography Centre, Southampton

Permanent

Full time (37 hours per week)

£67,063 - £73,773

Who are we?

We are the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) - the UK’s leading institution for integrated coastal and deep ocean research. Through our ground-breaking research, collaboration, and game-changing innovation we work to gain a deeper understanding of our ocean, helping every living thing on our planet flourish.

We are made up of a dynamic and vibrant community focused on solving challenging long-term marine science problems, underpinning international and UK public policy, business and societal outcomes.

The ocean has the potential to provide the solutions to so many of the social, economic and environmental challenges we face worldwide. To truly harness the value of the ocean, we put ocean research, science and discovery at the heart of our culture.

Join us in shaping the future of oceanographic research and contribute your unique perspective to our organisation.

About the role

The Head of Internal Communications will play a vital role in enabling and developing an engaged culture built on excellent communication practices, tools and channels.

The successful candidate will lead our internal communication group, supporting delivery of the NOC strategy by developing and embedding a clear, consistent and meaningful strategic narrative for all internal audiences.

This position will also involve supporting our senior leadership team’s internal communication, as well as championing the NOC value of working in partnership by supporting collaborative working across all functions.

About you

We are looking for someone with a proven track record of managing an internal communications function, and a passion for marine/ocean science, engineering, and technology.

Applicants will need to be able to demonstrate experience of creating strategies to engage a geographically dispersed and "deskless" workforce, along with the ability to translate complex subject matter into effective internal communications.

We are looking for someone with experience of leading, mentoring and developing a team, who can also coach senior leadership to become visible, vocal owners of the NOC strategy.

Why NOC?

We offer a generous set of benefits, including:

30 days contractual annual leave, plus 3.5 extra closure days and bank holidays

a 10% employer contribution pension scheme (with a 15% NI saving on employee contributions made above 5%, if in the salary sacrifice scheme)

Death in Service (3 times annual salary) provided by Aviva from day one of employment, plus access to a range of other Aviva wellbeing services

financial support for relocation

a salary sacrifice scheme for electric / hybrid vehicles (qualifying period applies)

access to our Employee Assistance Programme, offering free and confidential support on mental, physical, emotional, health and financial issues

access to a flexible benefits portal offering online discounts, cashback and eGift cards

a Cycle2Work scheme allowing employees to acquire bikes and accessories

a great working environment with a number of social events, including summer and Christmas celebrations

we are proud to be a Living Wage Employer

Location

This position will be based in Southampton. The centre is well connected by public transport and has ample cycle parking in addition to free onsite car-parking with over 40 EV charging points.

We have a hybrid working approach where for most positions staff can work from home up to 2 days per week. If you are interested in this position, but require a more flexible working arrangement, please contact the recruitment team using the contact details below.

If you are unable to apply online, please contact the NOC recruitment team at [email protected] / 07955 851648.

As part of your application you will be asked the following:

‘In no more than 300 words please give an example of when you have coached and supported a senior leadership team on their approach to internal communication.’

Before submitting your application please ensure you have reviewed the attached job description and person specification.

We are committed to fostering diversity and inclusion in our workplace. We actively encourage qualified candidates from all backgrounds to apply for this position, as we strive to create a supportive and equitable environment where all voices are valued and heard.
