Fusion energy promises to be a safe, low carbon and sustainable part of the world's future energy supply. The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) is the national fusion research organisation, headquartered at Culham Campus in Oxfordshire with other sites in South Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire and Cumbria.
After a period of rapid growth in UKAEA's fusion research and development capabilities, UKAEA is embarking on a brand refresh to align with the organisation's restructure. It will also be an opportunity for a new look to accentuate its status as a global leader in fusion energy research and development to key stakeholders and the general public.
The Branding Project Manager will have a proven track record of managing rebrand or brand refresh initiatives through to successful launch. This role is critical in providing day-to-day leadership and oversight of the brand refresh implementation project, which is approaching the end of the completion of its design, development and approval stages. You will develop the brand strategy and guidelines to ensure a cohesive and consistent implementation, deliver a comprehensive implementation plan, working with both internal and external stakeholders, and collaborate across multiple directorates and UKAEA's physical sites to ensure seamless execution.

6. Develop a detailed brand implementation plan and oversee brand rollout across UKAEA's physical sites and communications channels.

8. Deliver the implementation of all areas within the plan to cover all UKAEA branded assets - from online to clothing, signage and other printed material - and of the branding guidelines.
9. Be accountable for ensuring delivery on time and within budget, reporting regularly to the Head of External Communications.
10. Work closely with the Head of Stakeholder Engagement and internal communications team to inform, engage and train the UKAEA workforce, successfully embedding the brand refresh across the organisation.
Requirements
