Talent Pool: Campaigns
TALENT POOL ADVERT — REGISTER YOUR INTEREST
Campaigns: Officer to Director level
If you can turn a cause into a headline, a headline into pressure, and pressure into a change in policy, we want to hear from you.
Westminster Search is building a talent pool of strong campaigns professionals, at every level from Officer to Director, for our clients across charities, membership bodies and agencies. We are not recruiting for one role — we are getting ahead of the next ten. Join the pool now, and we will match you to a live vacancy the moment it fits, at the level that suits your experience.
Why register with this talent pool
- You are matched to relevant roles before they are advertised publicly.
- One conversation with us saves you dozens of applications to individual employers.
- We know the campaigns market in detail, and we only put you forward for roles that suit your experience and ambitions.
- You hear about opportunities first, from a consultant who has placed campaigns professionals for years.
What campaigns roles cover, at every level
- Planning and delivering campaigns that combine public affairs, communications, digital and grassroots mobilisation to shift opinion and policy.
- Building coalitions with supporters, partner organisations, politicians and the media, and keeping them aligned behind a single ask.
- Turning research and policy positions into messages, actions and moments that cut through.
- Tracking a campaign's progress and adapting tactics as the political or media environment shifts.
- At more senior levels: setting campaigns strategy, leading a team, and advising trustees, Boards or Chief Executives on which fights to pick.
What clients are looking for
- Experience across campaigning, public affairs, communications or digital organising — in-house, agency, party, Parliament or the third sector.
- A genuine understanding of how to build pressure through Westminster, Whitehall, the media and public opinion, and how they reinforce one another.
- Creativity and sharp written English: the ability to make a cause impossible to ignore.
- Resilience, energy and the confidence to run a campaign under real time pressure.
- For senior roles: a track record of leading teams and advising at Board level on campaign strategy and risk.
