Description

WE’RE LOOKING FOR A STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS SPECIALIST TO JOIN OUR GLOBAL COMMUNICATIONS TEAM ON A 12 MONTH CONTRACT.

At Movember, we believe in the power of words to shift attitudes, spark action, and drive meaningful change. If you’re a sharp writer, strategic thinker, and passionate storyteller, this is your chance to help shape the public conversation around men’s health.
In this dynamic role, you’ll amplify the work of Movember, the Movember Institute, and our global leadership team by crafting clear, compelling narratives that cut through the noise and translate complex ideas into content that truly connects. If you’re passionate about health and gender equality, and you’re excited by the chance to use storytelling as a force for impact – we’d love to hear from you.

Responsibilities

SOME OF YOUR KEY RESPONSIBILITIES WILL INCLUDE:

  • Shape external communications: Collaborate with subject matter experts and leadership to develop messaging that shifts attitudes, drives awareness, and influences policy on men’s health.
  • Distil complexity: Turn research and technical program data into clear, compelling content for diverse audiences.
  • Lead content creation: Write and edit high-quality communications across formats - from press releases and speeches to op-eds, reports, blogs, and social content.
  • Elevate thought leadership: Develop talking points and materials that amplify the voices of Movember’s executive leaders and spokespeople.
  • Drive stakeholder engagement: Ensure external communications reflect Movember’s mission and brand across media, partnerships, health, and government sectors.
  • Collaborate across teams: Manage the external communications pipeline alongside the broader Marketing and Communications team.
  • Track impact: Support campaign performance tracking, evaluation, and reporting to inform future strategies.

FOR THIS ROLE, YOU’LL NEED:

  • Relevant qualifications in communications, journalism, public health, or a related field.
  • Experience in external communications, including speechwriting, op-eds, messaging documents, and stakeholder content.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate complex or technical topics into clear, engaging content.
  • Strong planning, coordination, and time management skills.
  • Experience navigating stakeholder reviews and feedback across a matrixed organisation.
  • A proactive, collaborative mindset and commitment to Movember’s mission.
  • Familiarity with gender equality and/or public health issues is nice to have, but not essential
    To support your application please upload a sample of your best writing (max 2 pages — preferably a press release, op-ed, or messaging document) in the “Additional Files” box below
