Greenpeace is a story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. It’s a story of people who believe in hope in action, because a billion acts of courage can change the world.

Greenpeace International is looking for a Co-Head of Story and Comms to collaborate and partner with our current Co-head. Together, you will craft and deliver inspiring, authentic stories of radical hope that will help grow the global environmental and social justice movement, both in scale and power. Forging a more peaceful, equitable, sustainable and just future in the furnace of the polycrisis.

As part of the Greenpeace International Programme Department, the two Co-Heads of Story and Comms will lead a diverse ‘team of teams’ encompassing three global comms hubs, a media library, digital support and channels team, an internal and influencer communications team, and a story advisors and communications strategist team.

Do you have the skills and passion to channel the hope of millions of people world wide into positive change? Do you know the difference between being data driven and data informed? Do you appreciate the power of a diverse approach to story gathering? Do you have experience of creating global communication's strategies and plans, and can you lead during disruptive times?

- Build and maintain strong working relationships with key allies and strategic partners to align the strategy and improve the impact of the global movement, especially in the Global South.
- Oversee the effective management of Greenpeace International’s channels, communications tools and communities of practices to support an impactful Global Programme.
- Lead, manage and develop a multidisciplinary team of teams and support managers with their line and task management.
- Provide reactive communications support for the Greenpeace International Executive Team and Greenpeace International Crisis Management Team.
- Ensure the effective budgeting, management and expenditure of internal resources, including staff and operational budgets.
