We are Britain’s national equality regulator and a United Nations accredited ‘A status’ national human rights institution.

We uphold people’s rights without fear or favour. We use the full force of our legal powers to defend people from unfair or unequal treatment and to challenge breaches of the law. We advise on developing laws and provide guidance, training and support to enable compliance.

We bring people together to create change. We work with employers, governments and a wide range of organisations, to promote understanding of equality and human rights and we support them to make improvements in practice.

Our new strategy for 2022-25 gives us a strong platform to show that we will use our powers to protect and promote equality and human rights, and that we have identified the main challenges in society where we can make a difference in our role as a regulator.

Performing a key leadership role in the Communications Directorate, the Senior Principal Engagement and Insight will be responsible for leading our stakeholder engagement, strategic communication, and correspondence teams.

Working closely with the other members of the Communications Senior Leadership Team, you will develop and implement a new strategic approach to engaging with our stakeholders both across Great Britain and internationally. You will provide expert advice on gathering insights on stakeholder views and develop new engagement channels to enhance collaboration and understanding across a diverse audience. You will ensure our communications activities are insight-led and you will develop and implement evaluation strategies to support a culture of continuous improvement.

You will help to upskill colleagues across the directorate (and beyond) and set a transformative culture, ensuring our approach to engagement and insight is constantly improving and creating the space for your teams to deliver their best work.

You will work in a way that displays a high degree of flexibility, accountability and initiative and is in keeping with our values of fairness, dignity and respect.

This is a high profile role within the Commission. You will need to have the confidence of senior managers across the Commission whilst inspiring your teams and supporting them to thrive.

The role requires extensive experience of working with diverse audiences on complex and contested issues. You will need a high level of personal resilience and the ability to build strong credibility at pace.

A breadth and depth of knowledge of audience research methodologies will be essential as we strengthen our ability to gather meaningful and practical insights in a systematic way.

Experience of working with international stakeholders will also be an advantage, although not essential.
