Why join us 

At Sainsbury’s we are all proud retailers. We are committed to making good food joyful, accessible and affordable for everyone, every day.   

By joining the team, you will have the opportunity to deliver colleague campaigns that tell the story of why Sainsbury’s is a great place to do great work, drive greater connectivity to our purpose and champion good food. You will also join a business that is focused on empowering managers to lead their teams to deliver exceptional customer service through inspiring leadership. 

What you'll do 

As one of two Senior Internal Communications Managers delivering People communications at Sainsbury's, you will be working with the People division to shape the colleague people plan communications strategy and define the communications needs of key initiatives. You will develop the comms and engagement strategies to deliver the outcomes we want and manage the implementation of the communications activities. 

You will also play a leading role in equipping leaders to make the key touch points through the year really count and support them to have effective and regular face-to-face conversations with every colleague - our most important channel to reach our teams.  

Campaigns are varied and could include EVP, ways of working, reward, talent, recognition, change programmes, colleague listening and more. 

And within our high performing internal communications team, you will play a leading role in developing our channels to ensure they meet the expectations of our colleagues and contributing to the effective delivery of our purpose led internal communications strategy. 

This role has the perfect mix of autonomy, collaboration and leadership. 

Who you are 

A collaborative senior internal communications manager with deep experience in delivering strategic People Campaigns, within fast-paced, purpose led, matrixed organisations. Your exceptional stakeholder holder engagement skills mean you can get to the nub of subject quickly and recognise what is needed and who you need to work with to get the results needed.  

Your passion for narrative development and story-telling shines through in campaign design that feels energising, coherent and relatable to our colleagues – whether they are in our stores, in a logistics location, or working from a store support centre.  

You also have an integrated view of communications, and naturally work in partnership with other internal communications specialists, as well as external communication colleagues where necessary, to develop messaging that builds and protects our reputation internally and externally.
