The Publish What You Pay Secretariat is seeking a strong and dynamic communications and campaigns professional with a passion for economic justice, international development and fighting inequality to fill a newly created position. The Strategic Communications & Campaigns Manager will help shape and implement a communications and advocacy strategy aligned with PWYP's global strategy - Vision 2025 which lays out the roadmap towards a world where everyone benefits from their natural resources. 

THE ORGANISATION 

Publish What You Pay is the world's largest network of civil society organisations working to promote transparency, citizen participation and accountability in the oil, gas and mining sectors. We work with communities in more than 40 countries to ensure that the revenues generated by natural resource exploitation benefit all citizens, rather than a small elite. 

PWYP was established more than fifteen years ago and we have come a long way. From a handful of organisations in 2002, the network has grown to include more than 700 member organisations across the world. We are a founding member of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, the first global standard for good natural resource governance. Our advocacy has led to milestones in accountability, such as legislation that requires major extractive companies like BP and Total to publish what they pay to governments for their natural resources. Combined, these successes have led to billions of dollars of extractive revenues to be publicly disclosed, a level of transparency that seemed unachievable just a few years ago. 

Our global strategy - Vision 2025 - a people centred agenda for the extractive sector, builds on our success in securing unprecedented levels of transparency from the extractive industry, while placing more emphasis on making sure that transparency leads to broader changes that improve the lives of citizens in resource-rich countries. It prioritises greater citizen participation in the governance of oil, gas and mineral extraction so that people can exercise their right to take part in decisions that affect them and can hold the powerful to account. It also aims to connect to international efforts to curb poverty and promote sustainable development, redress inequality and prevent disastrous climate change. 

PWYP's annual budget of GBP £3 million and growing and is supported by a mix of private foundations and governmental donors and it is in a healthy financial position. To preserve its independence, PWYP does not accept funding from oil, gas or mining companies. 

We are a small, fun and dynamic team spread across seven countries and we work with some of the most courageous activists in the world. We offer an amazing working environment with a focus on personal development and the flexibility to work from home as needed. 

For more information, please visit our website. PWYP members and national coalitions are all autonomous and advance their own campaigns. Where opportunities arise, PWYP engages in joint campaigns with members and coalitions, usually for multi-country, regional projects. 

THE POSITION 

The Strategic Communications & Campaigns Manager will be a strong conceptual and strategic thinker who will work closely with colleagues at PWYP and across our member network to conceive and execute powerful advocacy campaigns driven by strategic communications. They will need to build relationships with, and be in regular contact with, staff in countries including Senegal, Cameroon, Lebanon, Uganda and Turkey.
