• Champion engagement, inspire colleagues, and make change feel achievable.
• Bring creativity, curiosity, and passion to everything you do.

What we’re looking for:

• Proven internal comms leadership experience in a complex, multi-site organisation.
• Skilled storyteller across written, digital, and visual channels.
• Confident in change and transformation communications.
• A people person—curious, creative, and ready to inspire.
• Global or multi-regional experience? Even better.

Why join ?

• Be part of a global industry leader tackling some of the world’s biggest challenges.
• Visibility from the shop floor to the boardroom.
• Hybrid working: 2 days in the Manchester office (flexible).
