Website & Communications Manager (0.6 FTE)

iniva is seeking an experienced, thoughtful and collaborative Website & Communications Manager to join our team at a pivotal moment for the organisation. The role sits at the heart of Living Legacies: Collaboration, Community and Radicality, a four-year National Lottery Heritage Fund project that activates iniva’s archive and connects it with communities through exhibitions, events, podcasts, oral histories and digital resources.

Working at iniva is dynamic, creative and purpose driven. As a small organisation, we value people who can work confidently on their own initiative while collaborating closely with colleagues, freelancers and partners. This part-time role (3 days per week) is offered as a fixed-term contract over four years, with responsibilities evolving across the project lifecycle — from strategy and planning in the early stages to website redevelopment, major public programmes and legacy outputs in later phases.

The Website & Communications Manager will work closely with the Project Manager and wider team to support clear communication, shared understanding and joined-up audience engagement. The role plays a key part in shaping how audiences encounter Living Legacies and iniva more broadly, ensuring communications are inclusive, accessible and grounded in the organisation’s values.

We’re looking for someone who cares about creating more equitable cultural spaces and enjoys sharing stories that connect artists, archives, and communities.

Salary: £22,800 per annum (based on a 3-day-per-week schedule; £38,000 full-time equivalent).

Employment Type: Fixed Term Contract; September 2026 – March 2030

Hours: 3 days (21 hours) per week

Reporting to: Living Legacies: Project Manager

Direct Reports: Communications Coordinator (0.4 FTE), Freelance PR Consultant, Website Developer, Podcast Producer

Location: iniva, 16 John Islip Street, London, SW1P 4JU with some travel across London boroughs

Deadline: Applications will be accepted until the post is filled.

Role Purpose

The Website & Communications Manager will lead iniva’s communications for a four-year fixed-term project (3 days per week), with responsibilities evolving across the project — from setting up systems and plans in Year 1 to delivering public activity, website redevelopment and legacy outputs in later phases.

Ideal Candidate

This role would suit a practical and organised communications professional with strong writing and digital skills. You will be a confident and clear communicator, able to produce engaging, accessible content for a range of audiences across web, email and social media.

You will have experience working with websites, including contributing to or supporting a WordPress (or similar CMS) website redevelopment, and be comfortable collaborating with website developers to deliver user-friendly, accessible digital experiences.

You will bring the ability to plan and coordinate work across multiple projects, managing timelines, contributors and priorities effectively. Experience supporting or overseeing freelancers such as PR consultants, graphic designers, photographers, videographers etc or external partners is helpful, alongside a collaborative approach and good organisational skills.

We are particularly interested in candidates who bring transferable skills from other sectors, along with curiosity, initiative and a willingness to learn. You should be motivated by working in a small, purpose-driven team and be committed to inclusive, accessible communication.

This role supports a multi-year heritage project focused on the histories and practices of Black and Global Majority artists. We particularly welcome applicants with lived experience and/or a strong interest in these areas, and a commitment to inclusive, anti-racist and accessible communication practices.

Applicants do not need agency–level PR experience; experience of coordinating or overseeing press activity within a wider communications role is sufficient. We are not expecting candidates to demonstrate equal depth across all areas; instead, we are looking for a strong overall match against the essential criteria and those who feel excited by the role are encouraged to apply.

Candidates from underrepresented communities are particularly encouraged to apply for this role. We welcome applications from everyone who meets the person specification of the role.
