289 - External Affairs Copywriter

Who we’re looking for

Are you able to review information, research and insights, to produce clear, accessible and meaningful copy and make recommendations for creative content? Do you have a communications or journalistic background? Then this role may just be for you.

Insights and research play a key role at CITB and are crucial in helping us to shape our support for employers. Like other sectors we use data to inform our commission funds and guide our priorities. We produce compelling content to influence partners to support construction, and ensure construction is prioritised in local and national government spending plans.

We’re looking for ambitious, talented individuals who want to put their passion and energy into helping us support and shape the industry, and our organisation. We appreciate that fresh pair of eyes – someone who can contribute to what’s working well and suggest ways to do things better. We encourage being brave. We’re open-minded, problem-solvers, creative-thinkers, and real team-players. 

Here at CITB, you can build a rewarding future. We want you to enjoy your work and know that you’re making a real difference. We believe in agile working and not creating silos. We believe in our people.
