UNI Global Union is the voice of over 20 million service sector workers around the world. Working with our affiliated unions, UNI represents workers in over 150 countries in industries such as the cleaning & security, commerce, finance; telecommunications and IT.
Our mission is to build power for working people in our sectors through growing strong unions. Our “UNI Breaking Through” strategy is our plan to organise the global service sector workforce and ensure respect and dignity in the global workplace.
We now have an exciting opportunity for a Communications Manager/Campaign Communicator (CM/CC) to join our communications team based in our office in Nyon, Switzerland. The ideal candidate will have at least 5 years’ experience in a similar role for a national union and speak and write fluent English as well as (preferably) either Spanish or French.
The CM/CC will focus on strategic communications and high impact media relations to help UNI promote its message and win campaigns.
The CM/CC will write website articles, campaign materials, updates to social media and press releases as well outreach to journalists and bloggers. The successful candidate will also work with our web programmer, videographers and graphic designers to produce compelling and persuasive multimedia campaign materials.
The CM/CC reports to the Director of Communications and will work closely with UNI SCORE (Strategic Campaigns Organising Research and Education) and other UNI departments on particular campaigns.
UNI Communications is a small and dynamic team so flexibility is essential. Along with campaign communications duties, the CM/CC will be asked to contribute to basic communications team tasks and carry out administrative duties essential to the smooth running of the department.
