Most policy research gets read by other policy people and basically nobody else. The Takshashila Institution wants an Assistant Communications Manager who’s bothered by that and wants to fix it.
You’ll handle the day-to-day of how Takshashila actually reaches people: writing reel scripts, managing the podcast pipeline, keeping social media running, and making sure research doesn’t just sit in a report nobody outside the policy world ever opens. Some days that means a quick clip explaining a new AI regulation, other days it’s coordinating events for a major conference. You won’t be starting from scratch (we’ve got systems and a team to work with), but you’ll need to bring your own instincts for what makes people stop and pay attention.
If you’ve ever watched a genuinely important story get buried because nobody explained it well, and thought “I could do better than that,” this role is for you.
