It's a foundational role, perfect if you're keen to learn and want to make a tangible difference in how our marketing teams stay connected and informed.

2A day in the life

Not a job advert. A real day, built from what this role actually holds.

You start your day by drafting a clear and concise internal email about an upcoming team meeting change using the established template.
10:30
You upload an approved article to the company intranet, ensuring the formatting and images align perfectly with the brand guidelines.

During lunch, you assist in setting up a presentation for a lunch-and-learn session, making sure everything runs smoothly.
15:45
You pull a report on email open rates and click-throughs, analysing the data to see how well your latest communication performed.

3What you'd actually use

Publishing approved articles, updating existing pages, navigating content libraries.

Poppulo / MailchimpBasic

Using existing email templates, managing distribution lists, pulling basic open/click reports.

Slack / MS TeamsBasic

Posting announcements in designated channels, using basic formatting, creating simple polls.

4What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing inWhere you are nowThe step above
Content Approval (Drafts)Draft content for review; no independent approval.Draft and self-review routine content; manager approval for sensitive topics.Approve routine content; advise on sensitive topics; final sign-off from leadership.
Distribution List ManagementUpdate existing lists based on clear instructions; manager review before sending.Create new segmented lists within established guidelines; manager review for new audience groups.Define audience segmentation strategy; approve new list creation; manage data privacy compliance.
Channel Selection (e.g., email vs. intranet)Use designated channels as instructed by manager.Propose optimal channels for routine messages based on audience and content.Define channel strategy for specific campaigns; advise on channel effectiveness for various message types.
Problem Solving (Comms Issues)Escalate all issues (e.g., broken links, incorrect information) to manager immediately.Resolve routine issues within established protocols; escalate novel problems.Diagnose and resolve complex comms issues; develop new protocols for recurring problems.

5How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

On-Time Delivery of Drafts & Publications
Getting your initial drafts or published content out by the agreed deadline.
Target · 95% on-time

If you're asked to draft a team update by Tuesday 10 AM, we expect it in by then. Missing a deadline for an all-staff email can cause real headaches.

Accuracy of Distribution Lists & Links
Ensuring emails go to the right people and all links in published content actually work.
Target · 100% accuracy

Sending an email about a new brand guideline to the wrong 50 people, or having a broken link to the actual guideline, means wasted effort and frustration.

Basic Email Open Rates (for routine comms)
Tracking how many people actually open the routine emails you help send.
Target · Consistently >50% (for non-critical updates)

If your weekly team update email consistently gets less than 40% open rates, we'll need to figure out why and try a different approach.

Intranet Content Update Accuracy
Making sure the content you publish or update on our internal platforms (like SharePoint) is correct and free of errors.
Target · 99% error-free

Updating a project page with the wrong date for a key milestone could lead to confusion and missed deadlines for the whole team.

Clarity & Tone of Drafted Messages
How well your written content is understood and if it matches the intended tone.
  • Your manager's feedback on your drafts, fewer rounds of edits needed, positive comments from team members about message clarity (e.g., 'That update was really easy to understand').
Proactive Learning & Initiative
Your willingness to ask questions, seek out information, and take on new tasks without being explicitly told.
  • Asking 'why' something is done a certain way, suggesting a small improvement to a process, taking notes during meetings and acting on them, actively seeking feedback on your work.
Adherence to Brand & Comms Guidelines
Consistently following our internal style guides, brand voice, and communication protocols.
  • Your published content always uses the correct fonts, colours, and tone. You're not making basic mistakes with our brand identity or comms best practices.
Responsiveness & Reliability
How quickly you respond to requests and how consistently you deliver on your commitments.
  • Responding to emails within a few hours, consistently meeting deadlines, being known as someone who can be counted on for support.

6Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Learning New Skills & Growing

You'll actively seek out opportunities to learn our comms platforms, ask for feedback on your writing, and watch how senior team members handle tricky situations. You'll enjoy the feeling of mastering a new tool or technique.

You're thrilled when you successfully build your first email campaign in Poppulo, or when you learn how to properly segment an audience list.

Contributing to a Team's Success

You'll feel a real sense of satisfaction when you see your drafted message go out and know it's helped clarify something for the team. You enjoy being a supportive member of a busy department.

Seeing positive comments about a team update you helped craft, or knowing your accurate distribution list meant everyone got the right information on time.

Seeing Your Work Published & Impactful

There's a buzz when an article you've helped write or an email you've drafted gets published. You like seeing your efforts make a tangible difference, even if it's a small one.

The excitement of seeing your words on the company intranet or in an all-staff email, knowing that hundreds of colleagues will read it.

What frustrates people
  • Being told to 'just send an email' without enough context or clear instructions.
  • Spending time drafting something only for it to be heavily edited or completely re-written by a senior colleague.
  • Dealing with unclear or messy processes when trying to get information or approvals.
  • Having to chase people for content or sign-offs, which can feel a bit like herding cats sometimes.
What this role does not give you
  • High-level strategic decision-making or budget ownership (not yet, anyway).
  • Complete autonomy over communication strategy or channel selection.
  • A quiet, predictable environment where tasks are always the same.
  • Immediate, direct interaction with external customers or clients.

7Who you work with

Your efforts ensure that our Marketing teams receive timely, accurate, and relevant information. This helps reduce confusion, builds a sense of shared purpose, and ultimately supports the smooth running of marketing campaigns and projects. You're helping to foster a more informed and connected department, which, let's be honest, makes everyone's job a bit easier.

Inside the business
  • Internal Communications Team (your immediate colleagues)
  • Marketing Leadership (for message approval)
  • Various Marketing Sub-teams (Creative, Performance, Brand)
  • HR Team (for basic coordination on people-related announcements)

8What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Strong command of written British English, including excellent grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
  • Basic digital literacy – comfortable using standard office software (e.g., Microsoft Office or Google Workspace) and learning new tools quickly.
  • A genuine eagerness to learn, ask questions, and take on new challenges.
  • A reliable and organised approach to work, even when juggling multiple small tasks.

9What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Content Creation (Basic Video & Audio Editing)

Our internal audiences are increasingly consuming information through video and audio. Being able to do basic edits for short internal updates, testimonials, or podcast snippets will become a highly valued skill. It's about diversifying our comms formats.

Basic Editing Software · Storyboarding (Simple) · Audio Quality · Visual Storytelling

  • This week: Watch a few YouTube tutorials on basic video or audio editing for beginners.
  • This month: Try to create a 30-second internal video using a free app on your phone, or edit a short audio clip.
  • Month 2: Offer to help a colleague with a simple video or audio edit for an internal project.
  • Month 3: Explore how to add captions or subtitles to your video content for accessibility.

Quick win: Record a short 'how-to' video for a common internal process using your phone, then try to trim it down and add some text using a free app. It's a fun way to start.

Feedback Analysis & Reporting (Intermediate)

Moving beyond just pulling raw data, you'll need to start making sense of it. This means being able to identify trends, draw simple conclusions, and present them clearly to your manager. It's about turning numbers into actionable insights.

Basic Data Visualisation · Trend Identification · Summary Reporting · Actionable Insights

  • This week: When you pull a report, try to identify one interesting trend or anomaly and note it down.
  • This month: Learn to create a simple bar chart or line graph in Excel to visualise your comms data.
  • Month 2: Draft a short summary report for your manager on the performance of a recent internal communication, including one key takeaway.
  • Month 3: Discuss with your manager how the data you're seeing could inform a future communication strategy.

Quick win: Instead of just sending raw numbers, try to summarise the 'top 3 takeaways' from your weekly comms report. It forces you to think about the meaning behind the data.

10Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Enrolling in online courses focused on professional writing, grammar, or digital communication skills (e.g., through LinkedIn Learning, Coursera).
  • Attending internal workshops or webinars on our specific comms platforms (SharePoint, Poppulo) or marketing campaigns.
  • Reading industry blogs or publications about internal communications and employee engagement to stay up-to-date.
  • Seeking out feedback on your writing from colleagues and actively working to improve your craft.

11How the AI economy is changing work like this

Before we ask anything of you, here's what we can already say about AI and work of this kind:

A broad read on this kind of work, not an analysis of this job on its own. Roles that share a pattern get the same answer here.

Fading: AI does more of this

AI is taking over the routine drafting of basic emails and announcements.

Rising: worth more because of AI

Your ability to refine AI-generated drafts into engaging and contextually accurate messages becomes more valuable.

The new skill this role is being asked for: Prompt Engineering for Comms

AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude are getting incredibly good at drafting content. Learning how to 'talk' to them effectively – giving them the right prompts – will make you much faster at generating first drafts, summarising documents, and even brainstorming ideas. It's already happening, not just a future thing.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Associate Internal Comms Specialist is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

No two people run this the same way

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real: internal communications can involve a fair bit of repetitive work. But here's the thing – AI isn't just for the tech teams anymore. Even at an entry level, you can use smart tools to make your day-to-day tasks quicker, letting you focus on the more interesting stuff.

Imagine cutting down the time you spend on first drafts or summarising long documents. That's exactly what AI can do for you. We're not talking about replacing your job, but giving you a superpower to get through the grunt work faster. It's about being more efficient, learning cutting-edge techniques, and honestly, making your job a lot less tedious.

First Draft Automation

Use AI to generate initial drafts of routine announcements, team updates, or event reminders. Just give it a few bullet points, and it'll spit out a decent starting point, saving you the blank page stare. You'll then refine it to make it sound truly human and on-brand.

Tone & Voice Checking

Not sure if your draft sounds too formal or not quite 'us'? Pop it into an AI tool and ask it to check the tone against our brand guidelines. It can even suggest simple rewrites to make a message sound more empathetic, upbeat, or direct, depending on what's needed.

Content Idea Brainstorming

Stuck for a creative way to announce a new policy or celebrate a team win? Ask AI for five fresh ideas. It's like having a brainstorming buddy on demand, helping you break through creative blocks for simple internal campaigns or article topics.

Basic Document Summarisation

Got a long meeting transcript or a detailed project brief you need to understand quickly? Feed it to an AI tool and ask for a concise summary of the key points. This helps you get up to speed faster, so you can focus on what really matters for your comms.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows an Associate Internal Comms Specialist, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 10 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming an Associate Internal Comms Specialist: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.

Independent research finds well-designed intelligent tutoring performs nearly as well as one-to-one human tutoring: VanLehn (2011), Educational Psychologist.

Other roles at Level 2

Same depth of qualification, different job. Useful if the work appeals but this particular role does not.

Other roles in Marketing

Stay in the field you know and move sideways rather than up.

If you leave this industry

The skills you'll gain in internal communications are highly transferable. You could move into broader Corporate Communications, Employee Engagement, HR Communications, or even specialise in Marketing Content Creation for external audiences. The ability to craft compelling narratives and manage information flow is valuable everywhere.
