hela Sverige UNHCR Representation for the Nordic and Baltic Countries is hiring an Associate Communications Officer for the office in Stockholm, Sweden. Deadline for application is 8 May.
The full job listing is found on UNHCR's Career Portal (JobID 35304).
Applications must be submitted through UNHCR's Career Portal.
Nature of the Position:
The Communications unit in UNHCR's Representation for the Nordic and Baltic Countries (RNB) is managing UNHCR's external communication in the region. This includes media engagements, reactive and proactive, production of advocacy-related content such as press releases and news statements as well as more human-interest content in the form of stories, videos and other digital approaches.
The unit is also managing the office's social media and 9 webpages, is involved in organizing events and public UNHCR participation, and lastly, the unit is increasingly working closely with the External Relations unit and other UNHCR entities on donor visibility content, highlighting the impact of funding coming from the strong donor governments in the region. The Communications unit works closely with the rest of the office in generally ensuring UNHCR's voice, branding and presence in the region, while also liaising and networking with a wide range of partners and stakeholders on messaging, external communication and events.
The role of the Associate Communications Officer, Swedish NOB, will be to strengthen UNHCR RNB's presence in Swedish media, by assuming the role of official spokesperson, building media networks, working proactively with media/journalists. The person will be highly involved in content production, stretching from press releases to human-interest videos as well as developing new approaches and content platforms for Sweden and the entire region.
The person will also be contributing to the increasing work of providing visibility for UNHCR funding and communicating the impact of the support to the larger population, not only in Sweden but in other big donor countries in the region. Lastly, the person will play a central role in liaising with and strengthening the network with relevant Swedish counterparts, when it comes to public information and external communication.
The post requires a solid communication or journalistic background, with experience in drafting content for different target groups and purposes - and often under time constraint - as well as being comfortable giving interviews, including on radio/tv, and speaking publicly.
Living and Working Conditions:
The post is based at UNHCR's multi-country office in Stockholm, Sweden, the Representation for the Nordic and Baltic Countries.
The post requires some flexibility with regard to working hours, as media requests can come outside of official working hours, and as deadlines are
tight and workload in general considerable.
Language requirements:
English and Swedish. As the position is a NOB in Sweden, a fluency in Swedish, spoken and written, is required. Knowledge of other Nordic languages is an advantage.
