Head of Digital Marketing

We’re looking for a Head of Digital Marketing with exceptional skills in digital marketing techniques to help us promote our research and extend our audience in the UK and abroad.
The new role of Head of Marketing will play a key role in the growth of the Institute for Government, one of the UK’s best known and most influential think tanks. Reporting to the Director of Communications and Marketing, the Head of Marketing will work closely with colleagues at all levels of seniority in the research and communications teams.
The key challenge will be to attract more people to the Institute’s work, and to devise ways of communicating directly with them. The Head of Digital Marketing will work closely with the research team at all levels to shape our social media strategy and the way we promote our work through public events and website. It will involve determining the different interests of our audience, managing the database of our contacts, and working with website developers and customer relationship management (CRM) management systems.

Production Editor

Our Production Editor, a new role, will have a central responsibility in our lively and fast-moving publishing operation. We publish more than 30 reports a year and these are the anchor of our reputation and influence. The Production Editor will be responsible for copy editing reports (and some comment pieces), ensuring that they confirm to house style, designing them to our standard format on InDesign. He/she will work with the research teams and the Director of Research to make sure that deadlines are consistently met. Most of our work is published online only, but where we choose to produce hard copies, the Production Editor will work with outside designers and printers to do that.
