Role OverviewNest Insight’s communications team deploys all owned and earned channels, alongside direct engagement with stakeholders and influencers, for maximum impact. We ensure resilience across the team through a flexible approach, in which team members are able to flex between activities to deliver a strategic and integrated communications programme, support one another, provide cover at times of annual leave or other absence, and develop skills across multiple communications disciplines. We offer training and development which supports this breadth.We have recently secured a major grant from a Foundation which will support an 18-month project to find new and better financial tools to support and build financial resilience for people on low and moderate incomes. In the UK, more than 7 million low-income households went without essentials in the first half of 2023, and 4.5 million were in arrears. Over 2 million households were borrowing money to pay their bills. The scale of high-cost lending in the UK was already significant before the start of the Covid pandemic, with 3 million consumers using high-cost credit on a regular basis. And more than 3 million people may have borrowed from an illegal moneylender in the last three years. You will work on activating our research evidence and recommendations, through both private and public strategic engagement activity.

  • Reinforce the learnings from the financial resilience programme and other Nest Insight work to policy-makers, the financial services industry, employers and regulators
  • Develop our relationships with our key stakeholder audiences, to ensure Nest Insight’s research and insights are being made full use of by policy-makers, financial product designers and employers
  • Create a link between our policy agenda and other live policy debates, such as the development of a national financial inclusion strategy, and the debate over the future of pensions auto enrolment in the Pensions Review
  • Participate in, contribute to and influence external events, forums, media and policy consultations
You will be an outstanding influencer with a track record in designing and delivering engagement programmes which create impact, and experience in designing and organising advocacy and engagement activities including roundtables, workshops, campaigns, reports and briefings for a range of different audiences.
