At Moat, we're on an exciting journey. We've launched a new corporate strategy, introduced our Moat Offer, refreshed our website and are preparing to launch a new repairs service. As we continue to evolve, our Communications team are expanding, and we have a number of exciting new roles.

As our Internal Communications Officer, you'll play a key role in delivering high-quality communications that support colleague engagement across the organisation.
You'll create compelling content, support communication campaigns and events, and help maintain our intranet as a trusted source of information. Working closely with teams across the business, you'll ensure important messages are communicated clearly, consistently and effectively.
