6 months, fixed-term.

The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) champions better buildings, communities and the environment through architecture and its members. With a mission to promote a wider public appetite and interest in architecture through its website, exhibitions, talks and four million-strong collections, the RIBA has led the profession since its foundation in 1834, and continues to lead as architects face the challenges of the 21st century.

Working within the External Affairs department, you will be responsible for ensuring that the views and work of the RIBA and our members are represented in the key debates that affect the built environment, from Brexit, to devolution, sustainability and the housing crisis.

We’re looking for a strong, credible individual with excellent communication skills, an eye for the details and a passion for politics. You will have experience of working in a political environment, in parliament, government, or through in-house or consultancy roles, and an understanding of how to influence the policy-making process.
