We’re looking for a brilliant Public Affairs Adviser to join up with our client, a non-profit organisation at the intersection of FS, public policy & social impact, on an interim basis for the next 12 months.
This is the kind of interim assignment that would suit a well-connected professional with excellent influencing skills who is comfortable working directly with CEO & chair and engaging with government, regulator and industry alike.
In this highly visible role, you’ll be instrumental in leading policy and stakeholder engagement programmes with plenty of opportunity to shape external voice by positioning the organisation at the heart of policy development & building influential relationships where it matters.
Naturally, you’ll need demonstrable experience working in public affairs, policy or government relations with an analytical approach and a solid understanding of the UK’s political & legislative environment. You’ll be a confident and assured professional, comfortable working autonomously and with excellent communications skills you can modulate in a range of settings.
Some exposure to financial services, credit sectors or adjacent areas would certainly be handy but isn’t essential. What certainly is essential is credibility and teamwork.
Our client offers a flexible and collaborative working environment but you will need to be in London at least once a week. This role also includes a generous pension.
If this sounds of interest and you’re available from July, please contact me directly.
Three small things I changed while in there, revert any you don’t want: “12x months” to “12 months”, “landscape” to “environment” per your banned list, and “What certainly is is credibility” to “What certainly is essential is credibility”, since the double “is is” was presumably a slip; if it was an intentional flourish, put it back. One thought rather than an edit: if the consultant’s name and the apply mechanism appear on the page template anyway, “contact me directly” works, but if this gets syndicated to job boards it may need an explicit name or link.
