Communications Executive: Knowledge Exchange

The opportunity

Are you passionate about communications, content creation and about the creative arts? If so, join our team at University of the Arts London (UAL) as a Communications Executive.

We are looking for an exceptional communication professional to join our dynamic central team, working closely with our colleges and key university services as well as external contacts.

The role will be based in the central Communications team at High Holborn, with frequent travel between the six colleges, all of which are part of our globally renowned university.

Your focus will be to coordinate and deliver integrated communications about UAL’s Knowledge Exchange activities across key channels; identifying story opportunities and promoting university-wide initiatives.

Your role will also involve creating dynamic, rich content that tells compelling and engaging stories about UAL’s Knowledge Exchange work – promoting the value that UAL’s expertise and talent creates when applied to real world challenges.

You’ll be digitally savvy and have exceptional writing skills as well as excellent content creation skills. You will have demonstrable experience of using film and design technology software.
