Science Communication Lead

Are you passionate about science and excited about start-ups? We are looking for someone with a fascination in science, to innovate, translate and manage the marketing and communications at Science Creates. Understanding our community, what motivates our members and how to support them is a key focus for our business as we grow and support our ecosystem of young deep tech companies. For that reason, rather than years of marketing experience, we are looking for someone with a scientific background and a deep interest in start-ups, who is driven to help make a positive change in the world, with the experience required to understand what we do.

At Science Creates, we are dedicated to driving innovation in the scientific community and maximising the chances of success for our member companies on their journey from scientific research to commercial success. We are seeking a talented individual who can bridge the gap between science and marketing, leveraging their passion for both to effectively communicate what we do and champion both Science Creates’ and our member companies' successes.

We need your help to share the narrative of Science Creates, communicating this effectively across multiple channels, to multiple stakeholder audiences.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing team, one that is having a huge impact on the success of potentially world-changing science start-ups, working to improve healthcare, create a cleaner environment and improve quality of life for all.

As Science Communication Lead you will manage the marketing efforts across the company. Some of the responsibilities are listed below:

As a team we are open, welcoming and inclusive. We offer a supportive, friendly and progressive working environment as well as a host of benefits including flexible working, 25 days holiday per year plus bank holidays, team days, professional development, casual dress, weekly events at our community bar and on-site parking.

Science Creates is a Bristol-based deep tech ecosystem that empowers scientists and engineers to accelerate their ideas and build businesses from scientific discoveries. It is an exciting high growth environment consisting of 2 multi-tenanted research facilities that support companies working on cutting-edge R&D to tackle global challenges, an in-house VC fund, an outreach charity and an extensive network of partner organisations, entrepreneurs, and innovators.
