Communications Officer - permanent, part-time

SCP 24-28 - £19,136 - £21,160 pro-rata (FTE £35,412 - £39,152) + contributory pension scheme

20 hours per week – with some evening meetings and weekend work.

Warfield Parish Council is seeking an ambitious, enthusiastic and high calibre professional to deliver communications on behalf of the council.

The Communications Officer will manage the day-to-day delivery of Warfield Parish Council’s internal and external communications, so residents, partners, councillors and staff receive clear, timely and accessible information.

The postholder will work closely with Councillors and the Parish Clerk to ensure that an annual communications strategy is agreed with a detailed delivery plan underpinning it. The plan would encompass the range of communications channels. The role holder would be responsible for ensuring that the plan is implemented, drawing in Councillors and other officers as needed.

The postholder will maintain the council’s digital and printed communication channels, support community engagement, promote council services, facilities and events, and contribute to communications planning aligned with the Council’s strategy.

The new Community Hub development is underway. This is a flagship project and long-term priority for the Parish Council. The postholder will ensure that residents are kept well-informed on the development of the project as construction continues. In preparation for the opening (due summer 2027) as part of ongoing use of the facility, a full marketing plan will need to be developed and implemented.

This role offers the opportunity to work 20 hours per week as part of a small, friendly team based in offices in Warfield.

Benefits include a generous contributory pension scheme.

If you would like more information, please contact the Parish Clerk at 01344 457777.

Applications close midday 21 July 2026, with interviews scheduled for w/c 27 July 2026.
