Comber

Head of the Leader's Broadcasting has a grand ring as a title, but applicants for this new role working for Ed Miliband can expect a salary of just £44,244.40 plus a fixed allowance of £971.

And the tasks are pretty specific.

• Overseeing the broadcast output and visual images of the Leader of the Opposition.
• Advising Leader of the Opposition on broadcast performance and helping him prepare for clips/interviews/visits.
• Overseeing the broadcast grid ensuring all conferences, visits and events by the Leader of the Official Opposition receive effective broadcast coverage.
• Developing and sustaining relationships with senior broadcasters.
• Setting up broadcast interviews and photo opportunities for the national media
• Developing fresh ideas for making the best of Leader of Opposition's brand strengths and communicating his message in broadcast medium.
• To carry out any other reasonable tasks as directed by the Executive Director of Communications.

The post holder will be expected to contribute to projects outside the scope of this description when required to do so by the Executive Director of Communications and the Leader’s Chief of Staff.

Should, perchance, anyone working for BBC News in London be interested, the salary lies at the top of journalist entry grade band 7, and about the middle of the next "Senior Broadcast Journalist" level, Band 8/9.
