IMIX is recruiting a Communications Manager

Posted by IMIX on January 21, 2020

IMIX is recruiting a Communications Manager to lead our work on the EU Settlement Scheme. Please see all details below.

The role

Immigration is one of the key debates within UK politics and the media. IMIX is working to ensure that debate includes voices from migrants and those who support them. We work alongside the refugee and migration sector to shift public attitudes on migration and create an open and welcoming Britain for people who make the UK their home.

The role has a specific focus on the EU Settlement Scheme, the new immigration status EU citizens will have to apply for if they want to stay in the UK after Brexit. We want to make sure that no one misses out on settled status and that the wider public hear the experiences and views of those whose immigration status in Britain is changing as a result of Brexit.

The person

We need an experienced communications manager to work across the migration space to find case studies, train spokespeople, craft messages/campaign material and talk to journalists to ensure EU nationals know the change coming, and that their views and experiences of settled status are heard.  We’re looking for someone who really understands the importance of collaboration, is a natural communicator, and who understands how to use a variety of channels to reach a target audience. If you appreciate audience insight, the importance of value-based messaging and why story telling matters when encouraging people to act we’d love to hear from you.

Job Description

To work collaboratively across the migration sector to support the development of campaigns, materials and awareness to ensure that people can secure their right to settled status.
