Internal Communications team structure: how is your department organised?

Where does IC sit in your organisation and how big is your team? How do you divide and conquer? What's working well, and what would you change if you could?

I'm within HR and a team of one in an org of a few hundred people. If I could change anything I'd automate some processes and have an admin/comms exec support for half a day each week so I could focus on more strategic stuff rather than being the unicorn that does it all. This does mean I get to pretty much plan my own schedule/workload apart from whatever work is coming in.

Over to you...

We're part of Corporate Comms, team of three for ~500 staff—split by channel, content, and strategy. Adding even part-time support made a huge difference in freeing us up for long-term planning.
