At the IET you’ll have more than just a job. Our work is exciting and challenging, connecting the people who solve the problems that matter. It means working with us has real meaning and impact, and you’ll grow – professionally and personally – in ways you never thought possible.
We’re also making significant investments in our people, including providing a modern, vibrant workplace and embracing hybrid working.
What you'll be doing
As Public Affairs Manager, you’ll play a central role in strengthening the IET’s influence across government, Parliament and key policy-shaping bodies.

This is a highly collaborative role that combines strategic thinking with hands-on delivery. You’ll represent the IET in key policy forums, act as a central point of contact for government engagement, and help build public affairs capability across the organisation, enabling colleagues to engage confidently and effectively in the policy landscape.

You’ll bring established relationships across government, Parliament or related policy bodies, along with the credibility and judgement needed to operate confidently at senior levels.
You’ll be an excellent communicator, able to turn complex political and technical developments into clear, actionable insights for a wide range of audiences (from senior leaders and volunteers, to policymakers and partners). Strong organisational skills, political awareness, and the ability to balance strategic priorities with fast-moving political developments will be key to your success.
If you’re proactive, collaborative and motivated by making a real-world impact through public affairs, we think you’ll thrive in this role.

Onthe cross, He died in the place of sinners,bearing God's punishment for their sin,redeeming them by His blood. He rosefrom the dead and in His resurrectionbody ascended into heaven where He isexalted as Lord of all. He intercedes forHis people in the presence of the Father.4 SalvationSalvation is entirely a work of God's grace and cannot be earned ordeserved. It has been accomplished by the Lord Jesus Christ and isoffered to all in the gospel. God, in His love, forgives sinners whom Hecalls, granting them repentance and faith. All who believe in Christ arejustified by faith alone, adopted into the family of God and receiveeternal life.The Holy SpiritThe Holy Spirit has been sent from heaven to glorify Christ and to applyHis work of salvation. He convicts sinners, imparts spiritual life andgives a true understanding of the Scriptures. He indwells all believers,brings assurance of salvation and produces increasing likeness toChrist. He builds up the Church and empowers its members for worship,service and mission.The ChurchThe universal Church is the body of which Christ is the head and towhich all who are saved belong. It is made visible in local churches,which are congregations of believers who are committed to each otherfor the worship of God, the preaching of the Word, the administering ofBaptism and the Lord's Supper, for pastoral care and discipline, and forevangelism. The unity of the body of Christ is expressed within andbetween churches by mutual love, care and encouragement. Truefellowship between churches exists only where they are faithful to thegospel.Baptism and the Lord's SupperBaptism and the Lord's Supper have been given to the churches byChrist as visible signs of the gospel. Baptism is a symbol of union withChrist and entry into His Church but does not impart spiritual life. TheLord's Supper is a commemoration of Christ's sacrifice offered once, forall, and involves no change in the bread and wine. All its blessings arereceived by faith.The FutureThe Lord Jesus Christ will return in glory. He will raise the dead andjudge the world in righteousness. The wicked will be sent to eternalpunishment and the righteous will be welcomed into a life of eternal joyin fellowship with God.
