Stonehaven is a communications consultancy that works across government relations, public relations, marketing and digital campaigns.

At the heart of Stonehaven is a unique understanding of how the human brain really forms perceptions and makes choices. We use our unique insight to develop the narrative, strategy and key messages that will become the emotional drivers of a successful campaign. In doing so, we have built some of the most successful marketing, communications and public affairs campaigns of recent times.

The selected candidate will be working with and gaining unique insight from leading industry experts, and will have the opportunity to help shape and develop the firm as it grows.
