Communications & Marketing Manager – £50,000–£70,000 DOE – 12m FTC – London/ Hybrid

Would you like to shape the story of a brand-new, government-backed tech platform?

This is a senior, communications-led role focused on defining the narrative of a new B2B marketplace, building core materials from scratch, and engaging key stakeholders during a critical pilot phase.

You’ll join a small, high-energy team working in a start-up-style environment, where communications is the priority discipline and your work will directly influence how the platform is understood, trusted, and adopted. This role would likely suit someone who has worked within a smaller, start-up environment and touched across comms, marketing and PR within their role.

Key responsibilities

• Shape and deliver the core narrative and messaging for a new technology platform.
• Clearly define what the product is, how it works, and the value it delivers to different audiences.
• Build essential communications materials from the ground up, including written content and slide-based assets.
• Develop buyer-facing messaging to support engagement and sign-up during the pilot phase.
• Lead external-facing communications and internal documentation to ensure clarity, alignment, and confidence.
• Manage communications with public bodies, partner organisations, and funding stakeholders.
• Support communications preparedness in a sensitive, publicly funded environment.
• Ensure all messaging remains aligned with delivery timelines, governance, and agreed scope.
• Use engagement and feedback to refine messaging and inform next steps.

Key requirements

• Significant experience (7+ years) in communications.
• A strong track record of building clear, credible narratives for new or early-stage propositions.
• Calm, confident, and credible in public-facing and senior stakeholder settings.
• Excellent written communication skills with strong attention to detail.
• Advanced PowerPoint and slide-based storytelling capability.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity within a fast-moving, start-up-style context.
• Professional, composed, and reliable, with gravitas rather than a consumer-brand tone.
• Experience in B2B, technology platforms, marketplaces, or policy-adjacent environments is highly desirable.
