- Accelerate building decarbonisation, support Paris goals & resilient buildings
- Strategic communications leader for new global hub shifting climate narratives
- Europe/UK-based, remote; built environment/climate expertise ideal
The Organisation
The Global Strategic Communications Council (GSCC), hosted by Meliore Foundation and funded by philanthropy, is a network of communications professionals in the fields of climate, energy, and nature. A collaborative network in over 20 countries, across 6 continents, GSCC covers themes including climate science and impacts, food and nature, finance and economics, energy, transport, industry, and multilateral climate processes.
With a focus on media debate and public discourse at the global level, and in major economies across Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, and the Americas, GSCC supports partners in a variety of sectors and geographies via unbranded strategic communications strategies to support the goals encapsulated by the Paris Agreement.
Decarbonising the built environment is among the most urgent and under-communicated climate imperatives but is often framed as costly, bureaucratic, or politically challenging. To address this, GSCC is establishing a dedicated Built Environment Strategic Communications Hub, within the broader GSCC network. The hub will bring together strategic communications expertise and campaign delivery to support the transition to near-zero and resilient buildings.
Benefits & Culture
- Build and manage a new team of international climate communications professionals across Europe and Asia.
- Huge growth potential. Collaborates with the global climate network and ecosystem partners.
- Competitive remuneration, generous holidays.
- Full time 24-month fixed-term contract with possible renewal subject to performance and funding.
- Global, remote, ideally in Europe, work/visa sponsorships and relocations are not provided.
The Role
Reporting to GSCC’s global Network Director, this role provides vision, leadership and direction to a new global initiative dedicated to accelerating the decarbonisation of buildings. While the initial focus is Europe and India, the role is explicitly designed to scale into a truly global function, requiring a leader with a strong international outlook and experience. The Hub's initial strategy will focus on key countries including United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, France, Spain, and India, working in close collaboration with partners to create public demand, political will, and market momentum for action.
Your purpose is to establish the Hub as the leading strategic communications resource on the built environment, translating technical building decarbonisation agendas into compelling stories that resonate with the public, policymakers, and markets. You will:
- Shape and implement the overall vision and strategy of the Hub.
- Build, manage, and develop a high-performing, cross-cultural team of up to 7 communications professionals in the initial phase, fostering strong collaboration across countries, disciplines, and political contexts.
- Identify policy issues to shift via strategic interventions for maximum impact.
- Oversee effective national campaigns, ensuring they are achievable and evidence-based.
- Manage the budget, financial reporting, and stakeholder relationships.
Skills Required
You have significant expertise in impactful, strategic communications/campaigns, which includes team leadership experience. Ideally you have demonstrated expertise in climate change, the built environment/housing, or energy transition, in collaboration with civil society organisations, policymakers, business associations, and media.
The role requires a proven ability to build trust, alignment, and performance across culturally diverse teams and partners, operating across multiple political, institutional, and media contexts.
The strategic communications campaigns you have designed and delivered have influenced public or political debate at national or international level and you have strong geopolitical knowledge and networks in at least one of GSCC’s key UK/Europe locations. You also bring:
- Leadership of campaigns, media, and digital teams across European geographies, with experience collaborating across global markets.
- Strong geopolitical nous and political strategy expertise to influence change.
- Budget management (€1M min), compliance, and reporting experience.
- Ability to operate successfully — and lead others effectively — in complex, dynamic, political, and cross-cultural contexts.
- Excellent English communication skills: a European language is a plus.
