Manager, Global External Corporate Communications

Ever read a headline and thought you could have told that story better? Now's your chance.

If you love being close to the news agenda and turning complicated business stories into something people want to read, this is a chance to do it on a global stage. The role covers media relations, executive communications, social media and corporate responsibility, all aimed at helping people understand and trust IHG.

This role will be based in our global HQ in Windsor.

Your day-to-day

Working closely with the Senior Manager, Global External Corporate Communications, you’ll:

• Expect to pull together communications plans and projects across our regions and teams, write clear briefings for senior leaders, and keep an eye on the news and emerging issues so the right people know what’s happening. Alongside that, you’ll work with our communications agencies and keep the global external communications calendar on track.

What we need from you

A background in an in-house communications team, an agency or a mix of both means you already know how a busy communications function runs.

We’re also looking for:

• A creative approach to content matters too, as does a genuine interest in the news and how communications is changing. We adapt our content for different audiences and channels, and we use different tools such as Canva, so experience with creative tools like these will serve you well.
