Fusion Futures LIBRTI ('lithium breeding tritium') Communications and Engagement Lead

Background:

Fusion energy promises to be a safe, low carbon and sustainable part of the world's future energy supply. The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) is the UK's national fusion research organisation, headquartered at Culham Campus in Oxfordshire with other sites in South Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire and Cumbria.

UKAEA has a multi-million Fusion Futures programme, which is the UK's alternative programme to associating to Euratom R&D. This programme allows the UK to speed up fusion energy development through major investment in new R&D facilities, industrial capability and skills.

A key aspect of Fusion Futures is LIBRTI ('lithium breeding tritium'), a sub-programme that aims to lay the groundwork for fusion powerplant-scale tritium breeding. Its goal is to demonstrate that tritium (one of the key fusion fuels) can be bred from lithium, with the process being quantitatively predicted and accurately replicated.

Fusion Futures also seeks to promote world-leading innovation while boosting general industry capacity through international collaboration and the development of future commercial fusion powerplants.

We are looking for an experienced communications specialist to devise, develop and deliver the PR and stakeholder engagement plan for Fusion Futures' LIBRTI.

The role will also encompass external and internal communications for the Materials Division of UKAEA. The Materials division provides a range of key capabilities and expertise which focus on the development of materials for fusion and other related sectors. It also operates our world-leading Materials Research Facility, located at Culham.

The work will involve communications across UKAEA's range of channels, including marketing, digital and print media, social media, events, and internal communications.

The successful candidate will work with the Fusion Futures programme and the UKAEA Communications teams. The role will report to the Programme team and the UKAEA's Communications department.

Responsibilities:

• Devise, develop and deliver the LIBRTI communication plan.
• Be the go-to technical communications specialist for all materials innovation and development news.
• Liaise with both internal and external stakeholders on LIBRTI programme progress, plans and opportunities.
• Work with UKAEA's events team to design and deliver events, such as webinars, supply chain events, and on-site in person conferences.
• Tailor the LIBRTI programme's communications and messaging for use by internal and external stakeholders.
• Define, develop and manage any supporting materials for the LIBRTI programme and Materials division, such as presentations, press releases, web copy, newsletters, info packs, briefings, marketing materials, and more.
• Reporting to the LIBRTI programme board on feedback to shape onward communications direction.
• Build relationships with senior personnel across UKAEA.

Qualifications and experience:

The successful candidate will be educated to degree level or equivalent, with proven experience in engagement campaigns and communications planning and delivery.

The role requires the candidate to possess excellent leadership skills, writing and interpersonal skills. You will be able to develop content for various internal and external channels such as websites, digital and social media, amongst others, taking technical information and adapting it for our target audiences.

A knowledge of stakeholders in the fusion and nuclear landscape would be considered advantageous but not essential.

You should be able to work to tight deadlines and independently. The Communications, Business Development and International department has a hybrid working policy in place.

Rullion celebrates and supports diversity and is committed to ensuring equal opportunities for both employees and applicants.

Salary: £28,000 per year (six-month probationary period)
Contract: Full time, Permanent, 37.5 hours per week

Global Water Intelligence (GWI), the leading publisher and events organiser serving the international water industry, is looking to hire inquisitive and resourceful Research Graduate Trainees to join our team.

As a Research Graduate Trainee, you will get the opportunity to try different activities during the initial six-month training period to allow you to develop a full picture of our business. Our objective is to develop successful applicants into roles that best match their skills and provide the chance to carve their own niche within our teams. Relevant training will be provided.

Responsibilities:

· Producing high-quality written content: Fewer people have time to read these days, so if you are going to write content, you have to write well. You will need to identify key information through research and analysis, organise your thoughts and express them concisely. Don’t be deterred if English is not your first language. We can edit for English.
· Interviewing people, building relationships and networks: Our business is built on speaking to the right people and asking the right questions. We need people who can proactively network with individuals to gather ideas and information.
· Collecting and interpreting data: We are the main source of data for the international water industry. With that responsibility comes important skills: persistence in sourcing and gathering new data, squeezing spreadsheets until they tell a story and presenting it effectively through data visualisation.
· Communicating ideas: People increasingly don’t consume information as text: they take it in visually. Feeding this kind of consumer is a challenge. It requires staff who can synthesise complex issues into simple graphics and who are confident presenting and explaining our content in webinars.
· Managing projects: Most of what we do is a team effort, but getting great people to work well together is a skill in itself. We need people who are organised, empathetic communicators to manage projects and bring everything together.
· Working across teams towards wider business growth: Your work will always be part of a bigger picture – in taking ownership of your projects you will collaborate with other teams from across the business (sales, marketing, and design) to ensure everything we do contributes towards the company’s vision and goals.

Person requirements:

Global Water Intelligence (GWI), the leading publisher and events organiser serving the international water industry, is looking to hire a hardworking and enthusiastic Graduate Data Analyst to join our team.

At Global Water Intelligence we collect a huge amount of data and are the main source of data for the international water industry. Our data and analysis are used by businesses, governments and investors to inform strategic decisions on the water sector. In some cases, we can collect near-comprehensive market data, while for others we need to rely on a combination of modelling, indicators, and contacts. In both cases, data needs to be collected, interpreted, and presented by in-house analysts who know enough about their subject area to validate and contextualise our numbers.

As a Graduate Data Analyst at GWI you will get to grips with new subject areas, explore unique datasets, and work out which data points we need in order to find the answer. We are looking for someone with a creative and inquisitive mind, with a good head for numbers and an adaptable approach to work.

Responsibilities:

• Build, manage and maintain datasets: As a data analyst you will help the wider data team to continue to provide invaluable forecast information and datasets to our clients. This includes collecting and organising external datasets, updating sources, carefully analysing information and accurately highlighting anomalies.
• Analysing and visualising data: Working with large datasets comes with challenges, this is why effective data analysis and visualisation is essential to draw out the interesting stories hiding behind the data.
• Clearly communicate information: Our customers rely on our numbers to help validate their business decisions. To earn that trust we need to communicate our methods and assumptions clearly and concisely. The same challenge applies internally. In a fast-paced research environment, complex topics and challenges need to be explained with the upmost clarity to ensure the whole team is on the same page.
• Managing projects: Most of what we do is a team effort, but getting great people to work well together is a skill in itself. We need people who are organised empathetic communicators to bring it all together.
• Working across teams towards wider business development growth: Your work will always be part of a bigger picture, and in taking ownership of your own projects you will collaborate with other teams from across the business to ensure everything we do contributes towards the company’s overall vision and goals.

Person requirements:
We do not expect any previous Data Analyst experience or knowledge of the water sector but, we are looking for candidates with strong academic credentials. If you think you are good at two or three of the following skills, we would like to hear from you.

• Knowledge of good data management practices, with the ability to collect, organize, and structure large datasets.
• Experience using Excel (including PivotTables or Power Query is desirable).
• Ability to analyse large datasets and draw out key trends/stories using effective data visualisation tools.
• Experience creating forecasts or data centric models is desirable.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to communicate complex data systems to the wider team.
• Project management skills, including scoping projects, delegating tasks and collaborating effectively with different teams.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment, including taking initiative, showing ownership of tasks, and managing your own time.

Additional benefits:
• International travel, opportunity to regularly attend international water conferences
• Company pension plan
• Holiday allowance of 25 days per year (pro rata)
• Opportunity to attend relevant training courses and conferences to develop within the role
