This role is central in facilitating effective communication between our research team, community advisors, and the general public.

As the Research Communications Coordinator, and under the general direction of the Executive Director, you will be required to develop and implement robust communication strategies, to create content for multimedia and news, and to coordinate messaging around science, industry and community interests. A key action will be to creatively translate complex scientific concepts into clear, accessible language for various audiences. With your excellent written and verbal communication skills, you will create a range of communication materials, including but not limited to press releases, newsletters, research reports, one-page briefs, and branded communications on behalf of VISTA. Your role will also include producing visually appealing content, such as infographics, mailchimp newsletters, invitations, and videos, to enhance engagement with our work.
Your duties will also involve the proficient use of digital communication tools and platforms, including management of social media campaigns aimed at raising awareness and engagement with our research initiatives. Additionally, you will be responsible for coordinating outreach activities and events, such as seminars, webinars, and conferences, amplifying the impact of our research within and beyond our community.
You will be in direct communication with faculty, staff, community guests, and VISTA affiliates, and tasked with providing accurate and timely responses to queries.
