About the role
We are looking for a Press Office Assistant to help us make, break and react to some of the biggest science stories in the national news. This is an office-based role in a fast-moving, open-plan team based in the Wellcome Collection building.
The Press Office Assistant will take responsibility for the logistics of this busy press office. They will help the press officers to efficiently run multiple press briefings a week, monitor the media for controversial stories about science, and help to evaluate the impact of the SMC’s work. This is not a Press Officer role, but everything you do will be aimed at supporting the SMC team at the SMC to ensure the news media get access to accurate, evidenced-based science when science is in the headlines.
What we are looking for
The right candidate for this job will be someone who wants a career in science communication and is prepared to start by offering their exceptional organisational skills to support those on the front line, including the Chief Executive. We’re looking for a hard-working, outgoing individual who will thrive in a fast-paced environment where the ability to demonstrate initiative and keep a clear head will be essential. On top of that, you should be genuinely excited by the SMC’s work, across both science and the media and where they intersect, and curious about the stories we engage with. We want an enthusiastic individual with good judgement who is excited to learn the ropes and develop their skills in a small but high-impact office.
What we can offer you
- 25 days annual leave + bank holidays + Christmas closure, increasing after 5 years’ service
- Annual performance and pay reviews
- Generous pension, healthcare, and family-friendly provisions
- Free gym and discounted lunch options
Selection process
- Application (CV and cover letter)
- Interview consisting of a 40min task and 40min panel interview. Interviews will take place in person at our London office. Date TBC but likely w/c 10th August.
