• Design and oversee multi-channel campaigns across digital, broadcast, print, and event platforms.
• Provide advisory support on reputation management and crisis communication.
• Coordinate high-level stakeholder engagement and media relations.
• Oversee multimedia production workflows, ensuring quality control and brand alignment.
• Institutionalise knowledge management systems to capture, structure, and disseminate learning.

Required Profile

• Advanced degree in Communications, Public Policy, International Relations, Media Studies, or a related discipline.
• 8–10 years of demonstrable experience in strategic communications, preferably within government, multilateral, international development, or high-level corporate settings.
• Proven experience advising senior leadership and navigating politically sensitive environments.
• Exceptional writing, analytical, and editorial capability, with a portfolio of executive-level outputs.
• Strong understanding of development communication, public affairs, donor visibility requirements, and institutional branding.
• Demonstrable experience managing complex campaigns and coordinating multidisciplinary teams.

Personal attributes:

• High intellectual rigour and conceptual clarity.

• Ability to perform under pressure in high-stakes environments.
• Detail-oriented with uncompromising standards of excellence.
