MIDDLESEX UNIVERSITY
Barnet, London
We exist to transform our students' lives and strengthen local communities at our campuses in north London, Dubai and Mauritius. With nearly £1 billion annual economic impact in the UK and 98% of our London students from underrepresented backgrounds, we prove that our excellent, multi-disciplinary education can drive genuine social change. From training the healthcare workforce keeping London healthy to supporting creative industries shaping global culture, our work serves our communities and creates opportunities for all. It's about the achievements of our students, alumni and staff and the successful partnerships that make our community into a more inspiring place to live, study and work. We're looking for an exceptional storyteller to help us share this impact with the world. As PR & Corporate Communications Officer, you'll be central to how we communicate our mission, strengthen our reputation, and build trust with the audiences that matter most. Working alongside our Senior PR & Communications Manager, you'll craft compelling narratives across traditional and digital platforms-from thought leadership for our Vice-Chancellor to media features showcasing student success and ground-breaking research. You'll identify stories that will make us stand out, turning complex achievements into accessible content that resonates with journalists, policymakers, business leaders, and communities. This role offers genuine variety and influence. One day you might be creating digital content that positions Middlesex as the go-to voice on issues affecting our communities, the next you could be developing a crisis response and advising senior leaders on their communications. You'll deputise for the Senior PR & Communications Manager, and work closely with teams across our Student Recruitment, Marketing and Communications area as well as members of the executive team. Who we're looking for - You're a skilled writer with strong news instincts and proven experience in PR, journalism, or corporate communications. You understand what makes a story compelling and how to adapt it for different platforms and audiences. You're confident advising senior leaders, able to manage competing priorities, and genuinely excited about using communications to drive positive change. Most importantly, you believe in what we do and want to help us demonstrate how we're making a difference at Middlesex. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Middlesex is committed to fostering an inclusive working environment. Middlesex is committed to fostering an inclusive working environment.
