ESS is expanding its remit to include scrutiny of the Scottish Government’s progress towards new biodiversity and nature restoration targets, and local authorities’ reporting on climate change duties. To support these new responsibilities and wider organisational growth, ESS will recruit a number of new roles over the next year, including a dedicated team to lead this work and the necessary corporate services support.
The Communications Officer will support the delivery of ESS’ Communication and Engagement Plan, helping to raise awareness of the organisation’s work and strengthen its reputation as an independent and trusted environmental oversight body. Working closely with the Senior Communications Officer, the post holder will lead on creating engaging and accessible external communications across digital channels, including the website, social media and media relations. They will develop content, monitor media and stakeholder activity, coordinate engagement programmes, manage communication databases, evaluate performance and build effective relationships with stakeholders, ensuring ESS communicates clearly, consistently and effectively with its key audiences.
