About the Role

Laura Moodie is the Scottish Green MSP for South Scotland. Her work is rooted in the communities of the region - amplifying local voices, running proactive campaigns, and making the connection between what happens in parliament and what it means in people’s lives.

The Communications and Operations Manager plays a central role in making that work visible and impactful. Working closely with Laura, the postholder will lead the office's communications - developing and growing Laura's public presence, overseeing local media relationships, and ensuring the team's output tells a coherent and compelling story about the difference her work is making.
