    High-level description of Position

    Vitamin Angels is seeking a Communications Manager for an anticipated global program (Program). The Communications Manager will help facilitate communications materials designed to uplift Vitamin Angels' entire suite of programmatic work, especially as it relates to a donor-funded Program, which is a grant-funded collaboration between several implementing organizations. The Communications Manager will sit within Vitamin Angels' Marketing division and work cross-divisionally—between the Marketing and Programs divisions—to create and coordinate communications materials designed to support the grant-funded program along with Vitamin Angels' overall global health portfolio.

    The Communications Manager will use their technical background in public health and expertise in project management, knowledge management, writing and copy editing, and creative content development to facilitate the development and launch of effective, technically accurate, and programmatic communication materials.

    The Communications Manager reports to the Associate Marketing Director of Programs and works with various creative staff/contractors (i.e. graphic design, videographer, photo asset manager, etc.) and Program team members (i.e. knowledge manager, monitoring & evaluation manager, and others) to 'bring to life' creative initiatives including program reports/briefs, long-form articles, regional storytelling, newsletters, blog posts, webpages, social content, and various other items designed to enhance and communicate our technical work.

    The ideal candidate will have a background in health communications, public health, nutrition, and/or international development, with demonstrated skills in writing for public health audiences, project management, liaising across a diverse set of internal and external stakeholders, and donor/partner relations. They will apply their expertise in all aspects of communication for public health while working to ensure the technical accuracy of our work and promote, exemplify, and further the mission and values of Vitamin Angels.

    Contingency statement
