Job Summary: Coordinating and improving student democracy to ensure all student voices are heard and acted upon

Who we are
 

Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfil potential; we help make it happen. 
 

Founded in 1897, LSE Students' Union is one of the oldest Students' Unions in the UK and is the representative and campaigning body for students at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).  Like other Students' Unions, it also funds and facilitates student activities of campus, including societies, sports clubs through the Athletics Union (AU), the Media Group and Raising and Giving (RAG) charitable fundraising initiatives. 

 

About the job
 

LSESU is looking for someone who is highly organised and passionate about student experience to join our Student Voice Team. You will need to have a good eye for detail, a proactive approach, and be willing to get stuck into all aspects of student democracy. The successful candidate will support the Student Voice Team in the delivery of LSESU’s democratic processes, and lead on key projects such as our annual elections.
 

This role will involve supporting with a variety of tasks, including liaising with key stakeholders, engagement and outreach planning, and database administration. This is the ideal opportunity for someone with an ability to work collaboratively with people, and a passion for delivering high quality opportunities for membership engagement.
 

Who are we looking for?
 

We are looking for a highly motivated team player who is passionate about delivering change within a dynamic and democratic organisation. The successful candidate will have great communication skills and will be able to work with a variety of stakeholders. An interest in democratic procedure and processes, a commitment to equality and diversity, and an ability to handle politically sensitive situations, are all key to the successful delivery of this role.
 

Further to the above, we’re also looking for someone who is proficient in both Microsoft Office, and various social media platforms, and who holds excellent time management skills.
 

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who wants to get stuck in, contribute to an effective team dynamic, and make a difference. Students’ Unions are innovative, dynamic places to work and we’re so excited about what we’ve got in store for LSE students.
 

 Why apply?
 

Because you’re excited by the challenge! The exact opposite of corporate, we’re progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces.
 

Benefits and Perks
 

In return for your passion and experience we offer:
 

• 25 days of holiday per year (pro rata)
• Additional closure periods at Christmas and Easter
• Free LSE Students’ Union gym membership (including advice from dedicated professionals)
• Cycle to Work scheme enabling significant savings on bicycle purchase

• Flexibility for work-life balance
• Interest-free travel loan

How we recruit
 

We want to ensure all systems, policies and processes are free from bias or discrimination and are fair and accessible, therefore we ask that all candidates complete our Application Process in two stages:
 

Part 1: Supporting Statement (cover letter) is all about you telling us about your suitability for the role and will be used to determine if you are shortlisted for an interview.
In your cover letter, please address the following three questions:
 

·       Q1 Paying particular attention to the job description and person specification, please tell us why you believe you are most suitable for this role?

·       Q2. Please tell us about your values, attitudes and behaviours and why these would be important in the role you are applying for.
 

·       Q3. Please tell us about a time where you have had to juggle multiple priorities from different people and how you handled this.

 

Part 2: (Equal Opportunities Monitoring and Contact Form) is personal information – so we can contact you if you are shortlisted for the interview. It also helps us gather and analyse demographic information about our applicants. This part will only be seen by HR and will not have any impact on shortlisting. 
 
Part 3: CV
 

Application forms are formatted to ensure the equality monitoring data is removed before applications are seen by the shortlisting panel. This process allows us to ensure that the shortlisting is done in a fair and consistent manner and all applicants are given the same opportunity to demonstrate their abilities.

ABOUT THE POLITICS PROJECT

We support young people to use their voice by providing them with outstanding democratic education. We work with young people, teachers and politicians to help them to learn, teach and engage in politics. We are a non-partisan organisation working across the UK. 

We also coordinate the Democracy Classroom network, a partnership between over 100 civil society organisations that supports young people to engage in elections. 

The Politics Project delivers Digital Dialogue: Wales, which supports young people to have meaningful conversations with the politicians that represent them, building trust and relationships on both sides. Young people gain the knowledge, skills and confidence to engage in the democratic process through informed interactions with their elected representatives. 

These interactions take place both online and in-person, in classrooms across Wales. 

Since 2021 over 5550 young people, 130 teachers and 130 Welsh politicians (including the leaders of four political parties represented in the Senedd) have taken part in the programme.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Programme Coordinator will plan, arrange and facilitate Dialogue sessions, where learners question and discuss issues relevant to young people with their political representatives. The post holder will also support schools and colleges to deliver Youth Hustings for the 2026 Senedd and 2027 Local elections, giving learners the opportunity to meet, and ask questions to, candidates standing in their area.

The Politics Project wants Digital Dialogue: Wales to fundamentally change the way that young people and politicians interact across Wales. Help us to make sure that young people get their voices heard.

Working with the Head of Programmes and the Digital Dialogue: Wales Programme Lead, the post holder would support the delivery and growth of Digital Dialogue: Wales, allowing more young people, teachers and politicians to take part. This is a fast-paced role in a small but growing team. 

While fluency in Welsh is preferred, it is not a requirement for this role.

The post holder will:

• Work with the Head of Programmes and the Digital Dialogue: Wales Programme Lead to support the delivery of the Digital Dialogue: Wales programme.
• Provide online, and occasional in-school, support for teachers delivering Digital Dialogue, Youth Hustings, teacher and politician training sessions.
• Support the recruitment of teachers and local and national politicians across Wales to take part in the programme.
• Maintain and strengthen relationships with those teachers and politicians.
• Manage and keep up to date the database, collecting and inputting information and producing reports when required. Assist with monitoring and evaluation.
• Provide administrative support for the Digital Dialogue: Wales programme and other programmes and activities delivered by The Politics Project.

The Politics Project is based in London, but the post holder for this role will be based in Wales. They will usually work from home, though we would expect the post holder to come to the London office once a month and attend in person meetings in Wales as required. It is an 18-month contract (including a 6-month probation period), with extension possible subject to funding. The hours of work are 37.5 hrs per week. Occasional travel to elsewhere in the UK and working unsocial hours in evenings and at weekends may be required. 

Benefits:

• 30 days’ holiday plus Bank Holidays and three days of additional holiday between Christmas and New Year.
• Friendly and inclusive environment.
• Professional development opportunities, to upskill and train you.
• The opportunity to make a real difference to young people’s lives, helping them to develop the skills and knowledge they need to give them a voice in their society and shape their communities.

ABOUT YOU

You will have a passion for democratic education. You will be a self-starter, comfortable setting their own pace of work and managing their deadlines with only some supervision. You can form good relationships with a range of people from different backgrounds and perspectives. You can negotiate, persuade, problem solve and be flexible to meet stakeholder needs. You will have excellent communication skills, both written and spoken.

You will be IT literate, comfortable working with video conferencing technology and other forms of digital communication.

Above all, you have outstanding organisational and administrative skills, with the ability to work under pressure and identify priorities. You will effectively deliver against set targets to agreed deadlines.

• Basic project management, planning, administrative and organisational skills experience.
• Previous experience of working with children and young people.
• Knowledge and understanding of the Welsh education system.
• Welsh speaker.
• A clean UK driving licence.

TO APPLY: 

To apply please submit a CV and a covering letter (maximum 500 words long) via Charity Job.

Initial interviews planned for Tuesday 16th and Wednesday 17th September 2025.

Our Team Leaders coordinate and run impactful and enjoyable volunteering events at which donated children's books are checked, organised and boxed for distribution by groups of corporate volunteers.  They are responsible for managing all aspects of the day and also for helping ensure that the volunteers that attend understand the value of their contribution.

Our Team Leaders work as part of a team and are supported by Volunteer Coordinators at each session. Your role as a Team Leader will be to set overall objectives for the day, to brief your team at the outset and to ensure health and safety protocol is adopted. 

Our volunteering events are received very positively by participants and are very well regarded by corporates, most of which choose to book with us on a repeat basis.  The Team Leader is largely responsible for setting the tone of each day, for ensuring their effective management and for checking that all attendees can contribute and participate fully.

On any typical day with us this role might include:

• Briefing the Volunteer Coordinators so that they can support you
• Briefing the wider volunteer pool at the start of the session: introducing the rationale for our work and setting objectives 
• Ensuring plans are achieved and completing necessary reporting.

We run two volunteering days a week at our Birmingham HQ and are looking for a Team Leader that can help run one or both of these days - opening up the unit, managing the session and helping us reach our gifting objectives.

In London we are also looking for someone able to work one to two days per week, possibly more from time to time if they are available.

We have an exciting opportunity to join our sector-leading Community Fundraising team as a Community Fundraising Executive.

We’re an ambitious charity with a bold mission and fantastic culture. As a key member of the Community Fundraising team, you’ll work alongside the Community Fundraising Managers, Executives and Co-ordinators to achieve the exciting growth plans in our new 3-year fundraising strategy.

If you’re looking for a role where you can make a meaningful difference every day, working directly with passionate people who have been impacted by prostate cancer, we’d love to hear from you.

Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.

Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.

Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.

Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion

At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally.

We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we're responsible and accountable for driving positive change.

Birth Companions is a charity that supports women experiencing multiple disadvantage during the perinatal period in the community in London and the southeast, and in prisons across the country.

Our work aims to improve the lives of mothers and babies by:

- improving the mental health and well-being of pregnant women and new mother
- enabling new mothers to give their babies the best possible start in life
- empowering women to fulfil their potential through engagement
- driving improvements in the local and national policy and practice that impacts on mothers and their babies.

By working towards these aims, we hope that all women who face disadvantage and inequality during this crucial point in their lives will have the support they need to give their baby the best possible start, and to fulfil their own potential, whatever their circumstances. 

Birth Companions’ values have shaped the organisation’s approach from the outset and are still as important to us as ever. We are a women’s organisation built on feminist principles, delivering woman-to-woman support. Choice, empowerment and protecting women’s rights have always been central to the way we work. Through the work of our staff and trained volunteers we offer practical and emotional support before, during and after birth. We work in a woman-centred way that is trauma-informed, flexible and non-judgemental, basing our support on what a woman tells us she needs. 

Work across our frontline services shows us what matters to women, and where things can and should be better in the care they receive from others. Based on these insights, we commission academic and peer-led research and direct the attention of local and national policy-makers, commissioners and service providers to what needs to change, and how. Everyone at Birth Companions plays a role in this. Communication and collaboration between our frontline practitioners, policy and engagement staff and the women in our Lived Experience Team means we are able to identify and monitor issues and themes and draw on learning in order to feed them into conversations with senior stakeholders across maternity, criminal justice, social services and immigration. In this way we ensure our policy and influencing work is rooted in the day-to-day experiences of women and what will make most difference to them and their babies. 

The Criminal Justice Services Manager will manage and develop all aspects of Birth Companions’ criminal justice-based services and line-manage the criminal justice services Coordinators, (currently three staff members but this likely to increase as we expand our services).

They will develop and maintain strategic partnerships with other relevant agencies and ensure the successful delivery of services through internal monitoring and evaluation, external evaluation and the charity’s governance structures.

The Criminal Justice Services Manager will be responsible for contributing to the development and implementation of new prison and wider criminal justice system-based services through stakeholder engagement and service design where opportunities are identified.

The Criminal Justice Services Manager will also contribute to the policy, engagement and strategic work of the organisation where appropriate.

Accountability & Learning Officer - Improve humanitarian responses through evidence and  learning

Full-time, Permanent
Salary of circa £36,000 per annum

When humanitarian crises strike, the DEC stands poised to co-ordinate and deliver incredible responses around the world.

Learning and insight are essential to improving how we respond and we’re now looking for an Accountability & Learning Officer to directly contribute to learning and growth for the DEC and our 15 member charities.

We need someone with monitoring and evaluation experience and a strong understanding of humanitarian crises globally to play a vital role in our dedicated charity.

About Us

The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) is a unique membership organisation made up of 15 of the UK’s leading humanitarian charities: Action Against Hunger, ActionAid UK, Age International, British Red Cross, CAFOD, CARE International UK, Christian Aid, Concern Worldwide (UK), International Rescue Committee, Islamic Relief Worldwide, Oxfam GB, Plan International UK, Save the Children UK, Tearfund, and World Vision UK.

When large-scale disasters strike countries that lack the resources to respond, we bring our member charities together to raise funds quickly and efficiently. In times of crisis, our mission is to save, protect, and rebuild lives through effective humanitarian action.

Working as one, we coordinate the UK public’s response to overseas disasters. Through our Rapid Response Network of media and corporate partners, we raise the alarm with the UK public and make donating as easy as possible, with most funds raised within the first two weeks of an appeal.

Since our launch in 1963, we have run 79 appeals and raised an astounding £2.5bn, helping save countless lives and rebuild communities.

At the DEC, accountability and learning are not just processes, they are a commitment to the people affected by disaster and will aid our growth and the development of our members. Your work will help ensure the funds we raise are used effectively and transparently, and that every appeal we launch is an opportunity to do better, together.
