Digital Communications Officer
Transparency International UK (TI-UK) is looking for a Digital Communications Officer to join our Communications team on a permanent, full-time basis.
This is an opportunity to produce and publish the digital content that carries our anti-corruption research and advocacy to the audiences that matter. You will create content across our website, social media and email channels, produce video and graphics, and deliver the digital side of our campaigns and publication launches.
You will work with colleagues across our UK Programme, Business Integrity, Global Health and Defence & Security teams, turning complex policy work into content that informs and engages.
This is a blended working role, combining remote working with attendance at our London office, meetings and events as required. Some UK travel and occasional evening events may be required.
The Digital Communications Officer will report to the Senior UK Media and Communications Manager.

Content production and multimedia
- Create engaging digital content across our platforms, including website, social media, video, blogs and other multimedia formats.
- Develop and produce video and audio content, covering planning, filming, editing, subtitling and formatting for different platforms, from short vertical clips to longer explainer pieces.

- Produce digital collateral from events organised by colleagues, including video, graphics and written materials.
- Work with our research and advocacy teams to translate complex policy issues into accessible, engaging content.
- Draft and edit blogs, social media content and web content, and contribute to press releases and other communications materials.
Campaign and publication launch delivery
- Deliver the digital element of our publication launches across the pre-launch, launch day and sustained engagement phases, to the plan agreed for each launch.
- Contribute to digital campaign plans with programme and communications colleagues, and coordinate the production and scheduling of content against them.
- Work with colleagues across the organisation on content that showcases our research, advocacy wins and policy impact.
- Develop email communications to supporters, including newsletters, campaign updates and event invitations.
- Maintain and build supporter email lists, ensuring effective segmentation and targeting.
Audience growth, analytics and evaluation
- Monitor and evaluate digital performance through analytics, identifying opportunities for improvement and growth.
- Track and report the digital measures set out in our communications measurement framework, including engagement rate by platform, click-through and referral traffic, and the best-performing content each month.
- Log evidence of digital influence, such as amplification of our content by journalists, parliamentarians and peer organisations.
- Contribute digital evidence and insight to monthly communications snapshots and quarterly programme reviews.
General responsibilities
- Contribute to the maintenance of our website, ensuring content is current, accurate and optimised for search.
- Keep up to date with developments in platforms, formats and digital tools, including AI tools, and share what they mean for our approach.

You will have:

- Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to make technical subjects clear and compelling for different audiences.
- Clear, concise and structured communication, including with senior colleagues.
- Excellent relationship-management and interpersonal skills, and a collaborative approach to working across teams.
- An up-to-date understanding of trends and best practice in digital communications, and an interest in anti-corruption.

It would also be useful if you have experience of paid social media advertising, motion graphics, animation or podcast and audio production, or designing and laying out publications such as reports and briefings to brand guidelines using Adobe InDesign or equivalent.

How to apply:
We know AI can be very helpful for job applications. Producing well written text is essential for this role, therefore we ask that you limit your use of it to refining text rather than production.
We use a recruitment platform called Applied. This promotes fairness, inclusivity and diversity. With anonymised applications and predictive, skill-based assessments, the system aims to address bias and provide a positive and efficient recruitment process. You can find more details on their website beapplied.com.
After you apply, answers go through our sift process: all are anonymised, randomised and then reviewed by a panel of reviewers. Your CV does not form part of the sift process and you should therefore take the time to answer the specific questions fully and, where appropriate, with your relevant evidence.
Closing date to apply: 9 November 2026 (11.59pm)
We encourage you to apply as soon as possible if you are interested in this role. Where we have high numbers of applications we can commence screening and progress with recruitment ahead of the advertised closing date.
We aim to ensure our recruitment process takes into consideration and adjusts for any disability or long-term condition. We are happy to discuss flexible working options for all roles.
