The Oxford Internet Institute (OII) is a multidisciplinary research and teaching department of the University of Oxford, dedicated to the social science of the Internet.

Digital connections are now embedded in almost every aspect of our daily lives, and research on individual and collective behaviour online is crucial to understanding our social, economic, and political world.

We’re looking for a Media and Communications Manager to join us in a job share capacity (at 0.4FTE or 0.6FTE) as we continue to increase the OII’s public profile and broaden and deepen its external relationships with government, business, civil society and academia.

  • Managing a small budget for activities related to communications and public relations
  • Ensuring that departmental communications follow the University guidelines on branding
  • Planning and overseeing marketing campaigns including the production of promotional materials for departmental campaigns and events
