We usually respond within two weeks
iNHouse is an award winning political communications agency, providing clients like Google, Diageo, YouTube, Arup and UCLb with high-impact strategic advice and creative campaigning. Located within a five minute walk of Westminster, our offices in Smith Square play host to key political events year round, with Cabinet and Shadow Cabinet members regularly joining events in our Home Room, and our unrivalled iNHouse Lounge providing the backdrop for conference conversations throughout the season.
Led by Kate Perrior (former Director of Communications at No 10) and Hanna Johnson (former Private Secretary to two Prime Ministers), and with former Labour MP Luciana Berger rounding out our Senior Counsel, we are a driven and ambitious team and are now looking to build our senior leadership team as we head into the next stage of our growth.

This role is pivotal in driving our agency, acting as both a robust leader internally and a key senior advisor for our clients. Our Directors not only navigate through challenging policy landscapes and lead integrated campaigning strategies but also actively mentor and guide our team, ensuring that we are constantly maintaining our high standards and exceeding client expectations across the board. As an ambassador for iNHouse, our Directors will be an integral part of shaping, embedding, and evolving our unique position and culture, ensuring success across all areas of our business.
