Description
The salary range will be approximately 34.500 to 60,000 GBP plus a competitive benefits package and non-contributory pension.
Background
At the FCA, we're creating a fair and more resilient financial system. We're establishing more transparent relationships between financial services and their customers, building trust in financial markets and protecting vulnerable consumers.
The Communications Division builds internal and external confidence in, and understanding of, the work of the FCA. The Division enables the use of communications as a regulatory tool, telling people what we do, how we do it, and why we do it, to prompt behavioural change and promote mutual understanding with the communities in which we work.
The Division consists of three areas:
- Corporate Communications.
- Business & Consumer Communications.
- Strategic Communications.
The FCA is implementing its first SharePoint based Intranet in September 2018. This will take the organisation to a much more interactive and social platform. We are looking for someone to help deliver that project.
Working in a busy communications division, you will be at the heart of delivering a new Intranet, working in partnership with the technical delivery team.
We are now recruiting for a talented SharePoint Intranet lead working in our internal communications team. This team is responsible for all internal communications across the organisation, managing priority campaigns and channels such as the Intranet and leadership cascades.
What does this job involve?
The key responsibilities of the post holder will be:
- Work closely with the internal communications team and the IT team delivering the project to ensure the aims and objectives of the customer and audience are met to timescale.
- Use your SharePoint knowledge to exploit out of the box capabilities to best effect ensuring that a modern efficient user orientated Intranet is implemented.
- Draw on information from a proof of concept project, audience research and internal communications team needs to inform requirements.
- You will lead on developing team processes and guidelines around content employing your knowledge of digital best practice.
- Coordinate activity to ensure that deadlines are met, reporting into the project manager and internal communications manager.
What will I get from the role?
Working in the internal communications team, you will benefit from a role in a busy communications division at the centre of the Financial Conduct Authority. You will work with a friendly team who are keen to improve their service to the organisation and modernise the Intranet portal. You will be able to use your expertise and knowledge to influence how this new platform is implemented and adopted.
