Does your proven experience of supporting the delivery of an internal communications strategy include managing and planning intranet content, ideally within a national charity environment? Then join Shelter as an Internal Communications Executive and you could soon be playing a vital role at the heart of our Internal Communications and Engagement team.

About Shelter
A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

At Shelter we are united by our purpose to defend the right to a safe home. Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. We believe that to win that fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement for change. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, fair, equitable and transparent.

We have committed to combat racism both within and outside Shelter and welcome you on our journey to becoming a truly anti-racist organisation.

About the team

Our Internal Communications and Engagement team sits within a newly formed Directorate - Equity, Inclusion and Culture (EIC). EIC is here to help Shelter be an organisation that actively embraces diversity - in people, ideas and actions. We’re creating an inclusive environment where we are safe to be ourselves and where everyone can achieve their full potential.  At the heart of our strategic aims is embedding anti-racism and lived experience, and this is how our fight for home lives and breathes. Integral to our ongoing success, and with a wide mix of activities and teams dispersed across the UK, EIC leads internal communications for multiple locations in England and Scotland, including our chain of shops.

About the role 

The overall aim here is to support the delivery of high-quality internal communications and engagement for staff and volunteers across Shelter. Your responsibilities will include managing an organisational wide forward plan and project managing a range of internal communication activities and initiatives, including staff conferences and briefings and ‘champion’ networks. We’ll also rely on you to develop a good understanding of Shelter’s purpose, activities and external challenges in order to shape communications strategies, plans and content, identify communications opportunities and come up with ideas and activities to maximise them. Delivering communications across the full channel mix, with a particular focus on the intranet, social collaboration and video, will be key, as will devising and delivering face-to-face and remote training on good internal comms practice, channel use - especially the intranet.

About you

To succeed, you’ll need an excellent understanding of internal communications channels and proven experience of using them effectively and curating user generated content to nurture a powerful employee voice. You’ll also need the ability to complete agreed programmes of work with competing priorities and challenging targets and deadlines. Excellent interpersonal and stakeholder management skills are essential too, as is the flexibility to adapt your communications style and ways of working to gain trust from a diverse range of colleagues. Comfortable working both autonomously and in a team, you enjoy collaborating with stakeholders at all levels across an organisation and have practical experience of creating networks. Crucially, you’re a clear, persuasive writer with excellent editing skills who is able to create content in a variety of formats and voices, especially using video, enterprise social media channels and the Microsoft Office365 suite of tools.

Benefits
We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

With gene therapy now available on the NHS as treatment for some forms of sight loss and therapies for other forms now at phase 3 clinical trials, we have never been closer to relegating sight loss to the history books. Now is the time to ramp up investment and build stronger partnerships, not rest on our laurels.

As the leading UK charity dedicated to stopping sight loss through pioneering research, Fight for Sight is at the forefront of making the above aim a reality. With a visually-impaired CEO joining us, who will soon be launching our new 5-year strategy, we are putting the lived experience of those with sight loss at the heart of what we do. Off the back of incredible success across our 2017 – 2022 strategy and a near 100% increase in income, we’ve never been better placed for success.

We currently invest over £8 million into 159 research projects across 44 leading universities and hospitals around the UK, funding some of the brightest minds in science. We are determined to create a world that everyone can see, and we have the resources and networks needed to make it happen.

The Role

You will be taking over an established trusts portfolio of c.£1.5m, made up of around 400 trust mailing respondents, 100 small donors. 50 medium donors, and 4 donors providing large strategic gifts. Whilst the programme doesn’t run itself, it is built on solid foundations and has a framework of extremely strong relationships; the programme is primed for growth and we’re excited to meet the person whose passion will help us achieve this.

The last few years has seen us become the first medical research partner of a number of large foundations, and those relationships continue to develop and flourish. We’re able to clearly explain our work and demonstrate the impact it will have on people’s lives. Our ability to engage with these non-traditional donors is a clear sign of the strength of our message.

We are routinely commended for being able to demonstrate our impact and the through-line from cutting-edge research to real-world application, above and beyond that seen from some of the country’s largest medical research charities. We know what we’re doing and we do it well.

Why you should apply

If the 10% non-contributory pension, inclusive and supportive culture, and exciting plans for the future don’t cinch it for you… Then you should join because this is an incredible role for someone who is looking to take the next step in their career; our trust fundraising programme has fantastic foundations and fundamentals, the investment and organisation is in place to facilitate growth and our appetite for change and new ideas is large. In short, if you want to take everything you’ve learned to date and sculpt a trust fundraising programme that is your version of perfect, with the full support of our board and SLT, then this is the place to do it.
