Media and External Engagement Manager

This is a pivotal role at the heart of our External Affairs function – ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of politics, policy and the media.

You will lead high stakes stakeholder engagement and public affairs activity, ensuring our expertise reaches decision makers and shapes debates in Westminster and Whitehall. You will work closely with senior colleagues and subject experts to identify opportunities to influence political processes, promote our work to key audiences and build and strengthen relationships with political and sector stakeholders.

Alongside this, you will bring deep experience in media relations – developing compelling narratives, spotting story opportunities, and ensuring our analysis lands with national journalists across print, broadcast and online platforms, as well as and responding rapidly to emerging policy developments through the media.
