Job description

Involve is right at the forefront of changing our democracy for the better. Combining innovative, high-quality practice with making a clear case for a democracy fit for the 21st century, we are showing exactly what our democratic future holds.

We are now recruiting for a new team member as we have a number of innovative new projects in house which offer a range of exciting opportunities.

This Project & Communications Officer (NI) role will sit across both our Innovation and Practice and Advocacy and Communications Functions.

There are two major aspects to the role.

Project Officer (50%): You will support the delivery of high quality participatory and deliberative processes, helping to place people at the heart of decisions.

This will include setting up, managing, designing, delivering and reporting on a wide range of processes, from small scale, hyper-local community engagements to large, national, multi-event Citizens’ Assemblies. Our processes can be face to face, hybrid, or online, and often involve bringing together different groups from within the public with stakeholders and experts from across government, business , academia and civil society.

As part of this work, you will also contribute to aspects of the Innovation & Practice team’s work, including business development, project design, project delivery and project evaluation and impact assessment.

Communications Officer (50%): You will support the effective and dynamic communication of our work, and why it matters as we look to build a democracy fit for the 21st century.

This will range from supporting our Digital Communications Manager to create and deliver effective social media campaigns through to helping to devise and deliver online and in person events.

As part of this work, you will also contribute to aspects of the Advocacy & Communications team’s work, such as developing key messages, thinking about how to improve our overarching approach to communications and engaging on how best to develop political and public support for putting people at the heart of decision making.

We are a growing team, with 23 team members based all over the UK, and a larger group of Associate freelancers who help us deliver our work.

We are committed to offering our team complete support for personal growth at work. This includes in house and external training on all aspects of participation, deliberation, systems thinking around democracy and relevant issues such as how we tackle inequities of power and privilege in society; technical skills development such as design, facilitation and presentation skills; along with relevant professional development such as line management and leadership, communications and public speaking.
