Staff Briefing is Imperial’s all-staff newsletter and is sent out fortnightly on a Friday. It is managed by the Internal Communications team, part of the Communications Division.

It conveys a summary of need-to-know information to our staff community, ensuring that they remain updated on the latest news across Imperial.

Contributing content

If you would like to contribute content, please email Internal Communications and a member of the team will respond to you. We aim for a maximum of 120 words for articles wherever possible.

Please send through any articles by 13.00 on the Tuesday prior to publication.

Writing guidance

  • There is a 120-word limit for Staff Briefing articles. If needed, the Poppulo microsite function is a good alternative to share in-depth information.  
  • Write clearly and concisely – avoid jargon and try to convey your key message in simple terms for a general audience.
  • Have a clear call to action for readers.
  • Include relevant links and information on how staff can find out more.
