In this episode of Behind the Bob, Carrie-Ann Wade is in conversation with Ranjeet Kaile about life as a communications director and some of the highlights and challenges of his career to date. Ranjeet is the Executive Director of Communications and Engagement for South East London Integrated Care Partnership and for South London and The Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust.
From his desire to work for the police service, through to the various opportunities he has grasped throughout his career in public sector communications, it is clear that Ranjeet is focused on creating positive impacts for the communities he works in. We talk about the various and diverse work you can get involved in as a public sector comms pro, and some of Ranjeet's highlights such as the South London Listens programme.
We cover the challenges and opportunities that COVID-19 and managing comms through a pandemic has presented to our profession, alongside working out which team or teams you are part of when you take that step up into a leadership role.
And we also get to hear Ranjeet's thoughts on his hugely successful work supporting the communications trainee programme in the NHS, something many of our guests in the first series of the podcast name checked him for.
