To do this, we conduct rigorous, cutting-edge research, working collaboratively with industry and academic partners to understand the needs and behaviours of the new generation of savers created by the UK's pensions auto enrolment system. We also consider how self-employed workers and others at risk of missing out on pension saving can be brought in.

Communications is at the heart of what we do. We deploy a wide variety of owned and earned techniques to make sure that our work results in meaningful change for people on low, moderate and volatile incomes. Our communications team is developing quickly to drive a higher profile and greater impact for our research and insights. As a member of a small, creative and hungry team, you'll work collaboratively to turn our work into exceptional content and publications which meet the needs of our audiences. You'll oversee our website, brand and all corporate communications. You'll deploy the voices of our research teams and partners, producing social content (including video) which highlights the expertise, innovation and diversity of Nest Insight.
Flexible working patterns are actively supported in our team. We are open to anything between 0.8 and full time for this role, including structuring the role in a way that would be feasible alongside other work commitments and/or caring responsibilities.
Nest contracts specify the usual place of work as Central London. We support hybrid working. We expect team members to be in our office (Canary Wharf) on our team day – currently Tuesday – and as needed on other days. Beyond that you can choose whether to work in the office or at home.
We welcome all internal applicants to apply for our roles, regardless of your current working pattern or hours. We will aim to accommodate your request and match your current working arrangements.
Don't worry if you think you don't have all the key skills, it might be worth taking the few minutes to apply as we're good at spotting potential and offer a generous training budget.
