Public Affairs Adviser
London (Hybrid working – 40% office, 60% remote)
£42,000
The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) is the independent regulator for advertising in the UK and works to ensure that ads across media are legal, decent, honest and truthful. Our work includes acting on and investigating complaints as well as proactively monitoring and taking action against misleading, harmful or offensive ads.
We have an exciting opportunity for a Public Affairs Adviser to join us and be our day-to-day contact for UK and devolved government officials, parliamentarians, legislators and wider public affairs stakeholders.
The role
Reporting to the Media and Public Affairs Manager, you will be responsible for building and maintaining relationships with key political stakeholders, informing them about our role and remit, and promoting the effectiveness of the ASA system.
You will lead our public affairs work in Westminster and the devolved institutions, developing and implementing proactive engagement plans on key policy areas, such as advertising to children, online advertising, gambling, alcohol and vaping ads.
You will provide political intelligence and analysis to senior colleagues, particularly where government policy developments overlap with or potentially impact on our regulation, responding to consultations and parliamentary inquiries as required.
About you
We are looking for a proactive, dynamic and enthusiastic Public Affairs Adviser. You will have an understanding of the architecture and operations of Westminster, Whitehall and the devolved institutions. You will need to be a confident and effective communicator with the ability to engage directly with officials and elected politicians. Experience of writing policy briefings and consultation responses is required, and you will have excellent attention to detail and a focus on quality.
Some experience of working with the media and an appreciation of the relationships between the media, Whitehall and Parliament would be advantageous.
We have a culture that’s open, friendly and collaborative. We welcome applications from all sections of the community, and we’re committed to being a diverse and inclusive organisation, both so we can represent everyone in the UK and so our own colleagues feel at home at work
