6-Month Interim Assignment | Full-Time

We’re looking for an experienced Project Communications Specialist to support a major business change and transformation programme on an initial 6-month interim basis.

This is a hands‑on role for a senior communications professional who can hit the ground running, quickly assess priorities and deliver effective communications and engagement across multiple projects.

Key responsibilities

  • Conduct rapid communications audits and identify priority/high-risk programmes.
  • Work closely with project and programme managers and key stakeholders.
  • Create clear, engaging internal communications and content.
  • Advise teams on stakeholder engagement and change communications.
  • Support employee understanding, engagement and adoption of change.
  • Introduce effective communications planning and identify quick‑win opportunities.

About you

  • You’ll have significant experience in change communications, transformation and internal engagement, with excellent copywriting and stakeholder management skills.
  • You’ll be confident working autonomously, advising senior stakeholders and quickly getting to grips with complex operational or technical subject matter.
  • Experience within public sector, local government, NHS, education, membership organisations or large-scale transformation environments would be advantageous.
