Marketing and Communications Manager
Climate Policy RadarClimate Policy Radar is on a mission to help people access and understand long climate documents. Nearly 350,000 users from over 100 countries already use our open databases and AI-based research tools to search through 500,000+ pages of climate documents from around the world.
We care deeply about creating trustworthy tools that have a real impact on climate decisions. Our exciting, impactful work is right at the cutting edge of AI, and at the epicentre of global climate action. In 2025, we are bringing in and structuring even more climate documents, improving our search and synthesis functionality, and making it easier for people to make sense of the evidence they need for better, faster climate decisions.
We are a not-for-profit startup, with a team of ~30 technologists and climate policy experts who care a lot about the ‘how’ (our values and culture) as well as the ‘what’. As part of that, we have embraced a flexible, hybrid approach to work, including a 4 day workweek.
We’re looking for a Marketing and Communications Manager to help us tell that story, and raise our profile with decision makers, partners, and users. We are looking for someone who can work from our office in London two days a week.
Roles and responsibilitiesWe’re looking for someone who is excited about the nuts and bolts of doing marketing and communications for a c. 30-person, not-for-profit startup. Reporting to the Chief of Staff and working closely with the Senior Leadership Team, you are responsible for executing our communications strategy.
What does that look like on a day-to-day basis?
When you’re not writing and editing content for the blog, press release and more, you’re updating and maintaining the website and running the Climate Policy Radar social media accounts. You’ll support our Senior Leadership Team with social media and communications for external engagements and events. You will be responsible for writing, directing and publishing what Climate Policy Radar says in public. And you will work with our tech, product and policy experts to share updates and insights from their work.
