Job Title: People Communications Coordinator
Salary: £40,000 – £45,000 + Pod Benefits
Location: London (Hybrid)

The People Experience Team are on the search for a new People Communications Coordinator.

As People Communications Coordinator at Pod, you'll help make Pod a place where people feel informed, involved and connected as we work to make EV charging easy for everyone. You'll create internal communications, bring our brand to life through great content, and organise the events and engagement activity that bring Podders together online and in the office. Working closely with our People Experience and Employer Brand Manager, you'll own day-to-day delivery, bring ideas of your own, and help tell an honest, engaging story about what it's really like to work at Pod.

This is what our very own People Experience & Employer Brand Manager had to say about the role:

"This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who loves creative work and takes real pride in getting the detail right. You’ll help shape how Podders hear about what’s happening, connect with each other and celebrate what makes Pod a great place to work. You’ll have plenty of room to bring your own ideas, and your work will be seen right across the business, from Slack and the intranet to our all-company events."

‎What You'll Do:

  • Create internal communications - You’ll draft, design and publish employee updates, campaign content and people stories across email, Slack and the intranet, adapting the format and tone to the audience
  • Bring our brand to life - You’ll use Canva and our PowerPoint templates to create visual assets and presentations, applying Pod’s brand guidelines and illustration style while bringing fresh ideas
  • Keep everyone informed - You’ll work with teams across the business on company-wide and short-notice operational communications, checking the facts, coordinating approvals and issuing clear, timely updates
  • Communicate change - You’ll help plan communications for business changes, new systems and required employee actions, such as policy acknowledgements and mandatory training, so our people know what’s changing and what they need to do
  • Look after our intranet - You’ll keep pages, news and resources accurate and easy to find, and build relationships with teams so they contribute stories and take ownership of their spaces
  • Run great events - You’ll coordinate all-staff meetings, virtual events, lunch and learns and panel discussions, and own agreed logistics for our annual residential all-company event and other in-person activities
  • Champion engagement and recognition - You’ll help shape quarterly engagement campaigns and coordinate our peer-to-peer recognition programme and quarterly awards, from nominations and voting through to winner communications
  • Support inclusion and wellbeing - You’ll organise activity for occasions such as International Women’s Day, Pride Month and Black History Month, and help make our wellbeing and benefits support easy to understand and find
  • Tell our employer brand story - You’ll gather employee stories and examples of life at Pod and turn them into content for careers and social channels, working with Talent and Marketing
  • Keep things moving - You’ll maintain the communications and engagement calendar, trackers and admin behind each activity, support engagement survey communications, and use feedback and data to suggest improvements.‎

What You'll Bring:

  • Hands-on experience - You’ve worked in internal communications, employee engagement, people experience or a related role, and can share examples of work you’ve delivered through to completion
  • Strong writing and editing skills - You can turn a complicated brief into a clear message, write in a warm, genuine and natural voice, and check the detail before anything goes out
  • A creative eye - You’re confident using Canva and applying brand guidelines, with a good eye for layout and consistency. You can explain your creative choices and respond constructively to feedback
  • Event coordination experience - You’ve organised events or employee sessions, including invitations, speakers, logistics and follow-up, and you’re comfortable helping a live session run smoothly
  • Organisation and follow-through - You can manage several deadlines, keep accurate records and give routine admin the attention it needs
  • Confidence with people - You’re comfortable approaching colleagues, leaders and external contributors, asking questions and following up to get things moving
  • Digital know-how - You’ve published digital content and understand how to engage colleagues working remotely and in the office. You’re comfortable learning tools such as Slack, SharePoint and Teams
  • Good judgement - You handle sensitive information carefully, use inclusive and accessible language, and know when to take something forward yourself and when to ask for advice or approval.
Bonus Skills

We’d be particularly interested if you bring experience in one or more of the following:
  • Working in a People or HR team, or communicating benefits, wellbeing, inclusion or employee support programmes
  • Maintaining an intranet or coordinating engagement surveys
  • Creating employer brand content and employee stories
  • Basic video editing, graphic design and presentation creation
  • Using participation data or feedback to improve communications and events.
An interest in people, wellbeing and inclusion matters more to us than a formal HR qualification. This role includes an office presence and attendance at events as required.

What's In It For You?

This is a hands-on role where your creativity and attention to detail will be seen right across the business, from Slack and the intranet to our annual all-company event. You'll have room to bring your own ideas, grow your skills across communications, events and employer brand, and help shape the culture of a company leading the UK's switch to electric.
