Description

Job Summary

We’re seeking a visionary and collaborative Communications Lead to lead the next phase of our communications strategy. This role is about more than messaging — it’s about shaping a compelling and inspiring public voice for creative climate action.

Job Description

Contract: Part time, permanent position, 80% FTE (with possibility to discuss full time for the right candidate)
Hours: Office hours are 9.30am - 5.30pm, Monday to Friday (as this is ideally a 80% FTE role, there is flexibility on how the time is spread across the week)

We're seeking a visionary and collaborative Communications Lead to lead the next phase of our communications strategy. This role is about more than messaging - it's about shaping a compelling and inspiring public voice for creative climate action.

You will be responsible for our brand, storytelling, content strategy, and creative outputs-ensuring that everything we do reflects our values, amplifies our impact, and deepens our reach across the cultural and climate landscape. You'll also play a key role in supporting our impact including welcoming new cultural organisations, creative practitioners, environmental partners, and funders into our network.

This is a digital-first communications role, with a strong focus on content development, storytelling, and designing varied communication campaigns. You'll oversee our editorial voice across blogs, email, social media, and digital content. Alongside our Marketing Lead, you will ensure our insights, tools, and narratives are warm, purpose-focused, clear, accessible, and optimised for reach and engagement. You will be someone who thrives on the combination of ambitious strategic thinking and delivering content and projects on the ground.

You will collaborate with partner organisations to co-create communications, support joint campaigns, and ensure our voice is visible and aligned in the broader climate and culture movement. And while press/media remains part of the role, your primary focus will be digital content, brand positioning, and reaching new audiences.

You will be part of a small Marketing and Communications team and work closely with the rest of JB's 20-person, supportive and mission-driven team.

Job Requirements

  • Substantial experience in a senior communications role, ideally within the cultural, environmental, or non-profit sectors.

  • Exceptional writing, editing, and storytelling skills, with a track record of developing clear, creative, and inclusive content.
  • Strong experience in campaign development, brand implementation, visual storytelling, and communications project management.
  • Knowledge of content strategy, SEO, and audience engagement across digital platforms.
  • Demonstrable ability to embed equity, diversity, and commitment to climate justice into communications practice.
  • Collaborative and confident communicator with experience working across teams and with external partners.
  • Strategic thinker with a commitment to Julie's Bicycle's mission and values.
