Do you need a reliable, native English internal communication specialist as a consultant (for short-term or long-term support)? If yes, you’ve come to the right place.
My name is Elizabeth Joss-Bethlehem and I’ve been supporting companies in Europe with their internal communication tasks for more than a decade now.
I’m passionate about getting the right message across to employees and I know how complex and challenging this can be for communication teams. I can quickly and easily help you refine or edit your internal messages or even write them from scratch according to your brief.
What does an Internal Communication Specialist do?
A native English internal communication specialist is someone who supports internal communication within a company i.e. all communication that is sent to employees specifically. Each and every company requires a different style and tone in terms of internal communication for content such as general emails, HR announcements, interviews, and more. What is more, is that some companies require UK English whereas others utilize US English (I can help with both these styles). As a result, working as a native English internal communication specialist is complex yet also exciting!
On a daily basis, I’m engaged in the writing of:
- Inspirational internal stories for intranets;
- Thought Leadership stories on behalf of senior executives;
- Employee interviews for intranets;
- Internal emails to employees;
- HR announcements i.e. new joiner, promotion, departure messages;
- Speech writing for senior leaders, MC scripts for internal events; internal communication scripts for videos, etc.
- New procedure announcements;
- Internal newsletters (editing, writing, and designing thereof);
- Internal reports, guides, all sorts of templates, etc. on a range of topics;
- Annual reports and sustainability reports;
- And much more!
Added to the above, I also regularly train and coach Communication teams on internal communication (as well as a range of other topics).
What topics do I write about?
As a native English internal communication specialist, I write about almost anything affecting employees. My most popular topics at the moment are:

- LGBTQ+ stories;
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity (DEI) Messages;
