  • Work closely with the Project Director, Creative Director, and production teams to ensure all outputs align with strategic objectives and creative intent
  • Support regular and clear client reporting
  • Embed safeguarding, ethical, and security considerations throughout creative development and implementation
  • Support the development of Theories of Change and measurable campaign KPIs, linking creative strategy to behavioural or attitudinal outcomes
  • Collaborate with MEL and research teams to monitor campaign performance, applying learning to refine creative strategies over time
  • Provide strategic and creative leadership in client and donor engagements, confidently presenting concepts, insights, and recommendations
  • Support ongoing business development efforts
  • Stay informed on best practice in strategic communications and behaviour change and bring innovation to our work
  • Represent Zinc at high-level meetings with clients and project partners

Requirements:

  • 5+ years’ experience in creative strategy, communications planning, or campaign design
  • Blended background from advertising or creative agencies with experience of international development, social impact, government comms or public affairs
  • Demonstrated experience developing multi-channel, insight-driven campaigns in complex or sensitive environments
  • Strong understanding of influence operations, and audience behaviour in fragile or contested information spaces
  • Excellent writing and conceptual skills, with experience producing creative briefs, messaging frameworks, and strategic propositions
  • Demonstrated interest in international affairs and public policy, particularly in Eastern and Central Europe
  • A passion of technology, and a willingness to be AI-first in the way you work and the output you deliver
  • A strong systems thinker who can find credible and innovative ways to address seemingly intractable problem sets
  • Familiarity with design thinking and product and service design approaches
  • Strong collaboration skills, with experience working closely with insights, creative, digital, and production teams
  • Confidence operating in client-facing settings, including presenting strategic recommendations and creative concepts to senior stakeholders
  • Familiarity with behaviour change models (e.g. COM-B, EAST, MINDSPACE, nudge theory, Fogg Behaviour Model)
  • A clear understanding of ethical storytelling, safeguarding, and risk-sensitive communications, particularly in politically or culturally sensitive contexts
  • Must have or be able to get UK security clearance

Nice to have:

  • Academic background or formal training in behavioural science, psychology, behavioural economics, or related field
  • Experience working in international development, social impact, government communications, or public affairs
