You will be helping us and the sector to support those who are forced to seek safety. With over 35 years’ experience, we are trusted by the communities we serve and are seen as the lead organisation in Wales for sanctuary seekers and refugees. We are currently recruiting a Communications Manager to lead on developing and delivering a public affairs strategy that amplifies lived experience, builds political relationships, and secures engagement from key decision-makers across Wales.

Job Title: Communications Manager

Salary: £31,000 to £34,000 per annum pro rata.

Duration: One year fixed term contract with potential for extension, depending on funding. We would consider a secondment for 1 year of work. 

Hours: 35 hours a week.

Location: Hybrid. Remote working days to be agreed. Usually, a minimum of 2 days in the Cardiff Office per week.

Purpose of the post

As Communications Manager, you’ll lead on developing and delivering a public affairs
strategy that amplifies lived experience, builds political relationships, and secures
engagement from key decision-makers across Wales. While immigration isn’t devolved,
the Welsh Government and Senedd play a vital role in shaping the day-to-day
experiences of sanctuary seekers and refugees – from housing and health to education
and integration.

You’ll work closely with the wider Communications, Engagement and Policy team to
ensure these issues are not only visible but taken seriously in political debate. A key part
of the role will also be sharing accurate, real-world information to help build greater
understanding and informed discussion across Wales
