Making a difference through social research
As a not-for-profit, the Institute for Employment Studies (IES) has been cultivating independent, evidence-based research that matters for fifty years.

From helping major employers to stop the gender pay gap in its tracks, to exploring mindfulness and mental health for government bodies, employers and charities, such as Mind. As the Institute’s in-house communicator, you’ll be working closely with the leadership team, researchers, partners and clients to make sure these important messages reach key audiences.

About you
We are looking for an all-round, dynamic communicator with a real interest in employment policy, and understanding of issues in the world of work. You’ll have experience in digital marketing, publications, press and media, and graphics and visual communication. This is a diverse role, and applicants could come from a variety of backgrounds.
