This role supports the day-to-day operation, quality and continuous improvement of NPL’s websites – our core platforms for communicating world-leading science and engineering. 

Based in the Marketing and Communications team, the Web coordinator works closely with the Web team to deliver reliable, accessible and high-quality digital content. The role focuses on the technical and operational elements of the sites, ensuring that content is published accurately, performs well, and meets agreed standards for usability, accessibility and brand consistency.

The role involves regular collaboration with colleagues across the organisation, helping them publish effective content and make best use of the website.
