Communications Executive at Mount Anvil

The Role

We’re looking for a talented Communication Executive to craft and share the brilliant stories that we’re so proud to tell at Mount Anvil.

This isn’t a traditional PR/corporate comms role – rather, we have a lively LinkedIn presence that celebrates our work with communities, partnerships and people, we run a lot of events (including around our tie-ups with Peloton and Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew) and we work with a lot of teams internally. There’s all manner of interesting stuff going on in our unique residential development and construction business who’s here to Pursue Better, Differently. So, you’ll need a knack for keeping the trains running on time and will get a kick out of hitting deadlines, and will love building honest, real relationships with all kinds of people.

You’ll be a natural when it comes to writing and design and be able to spin lots of plates, enjoying the learning that comes from moving nimbly and tackling a wide range of things day to day.

Ours is a high performance culture. High performance in this role means owning engagement targets on LinkedIn, reaching key stakeholders at big milestones and around events, securing big award wins and keeping your teammates current with the latest facts and figures by maintaining our “Mount Anvil Toolkit” accurately.  We also pride ourselves on hiring learn-it-alls, not know-it-alls. You’ll grow here, because we expect you to be up for giving and getting feedback (from day one) – it’s baked into the culture, and it’s the fastest way to learn.

Construction/development experience is a bonus but not a must, whereas you’ll definitely need InDesign and copywriting prowess, a track record of building collaborative relationships and super high standards for the content you put out into the world.

Mount Anvil

What we do: We’ve worked in partnership for 30 years to create outstanding places in London. We’re growing, with our construction turnover doubling, and with a pipeline of new projects where we’re raring to get started and make a difference.

Why we’re here: We’re here to pursue better, differently.

Better: One of The Sunday Times’ “100 Best Small Companies to Work For” for over a decade, winner of multiple Pride In The Job and WhatHouse awards for our people and the quality of our homes, and proud to have the nation’s best site in our ranks (winning the highest possible marks across the Considerate Constructors Scheme’s five areas – the first site ever to do so in 22 years of the CCS).

Differently:  Our culture is unusual. Different means more transparent with information. More direct with feedback that helps us all grow. More rigorous about setting goals, then giving more freedom to go and achieve them. It’s definitely not for everyone. We don’t hire know-it-alls, we hire “learn-it-alls”.  As our CEO, Killian, says: “We work hard to find people who thrive on context and responsibility, rather than rules and procedures. We then work like owner managers, not a leader and a load of helpers.”

Benefits:

Private medical insurance for you and your family through Vitality (including discounts on spa breaks, cinema tickets and your food shopping, free Starbucks, 50% off Virgin Active Membership and more).

Income Protection Insurance to help you cope financially if you’re unable to work due to illness or injury, Life Assurance equivalent to four times your salary, your annual leave & Bank Holidays, enhanced maternity and paternity leave and workplace nursery salary sacrifice, allowing you to save tax and NI on monthly nursery fees. 

We think the best benefit of being here is the learning culture and the ability to make a real difference – we dislike hierarchy and politics, and “not my job” isn’t in our vernacular. Which means if you really care about raising the bar and really want to feel connected to the end product, as opposed to like a cog in a big machine, this could be the place for you to grow your career.
