About the Organisation
The charity is the national What Works Centre for Children and Families. We generate and champion high-quality evidence that aims to improve the outcomes of children experiencing vulnerabilities and their families. To do this, we work directly with government and national stakeholders, and with local leaders to embed evidence in policy and practice, and to drive change. We’re an organisation with ambitious aims and our people are essential to our success.
As a member of the What Works Network, we have a pivotal role as the ‘go-to’ source for evidence about services that makes a difference to children and families. We span the spectrum of support for children and families, from early intervention and targeted help to children’s social care.
The organisation strives to be a great place to work, where everyone is high performing and where together we achieve impact that makes a real difference for children and families.
We’re looking for a proactive, highly motivated and experienced Senior Press Office to join our small but impactful Communications and Public Affairs Team.

This is a pivotal moment in policy and practice for children and families. Reform is underway at national and local level, and a major Bill is passing through Parliament. The priority areas – supporting parenting, strengthening family networks, tackling domestic abuse and relationships for care-experienced children and young people - are media-friendly, topical and frequently high profile. If you want to join a committed and skilled team dedicated to making a difference to children and families, we would like to hear from you.
We value and celebrate diversity and are committed to providing an inclusive environment for all our employees. Our people are at the heart of everything we do. We believe it’s vital that our workforce reflects the diversity of our stakeholders, and the wider society in the UK, and we actively seek candidates from diverse backgrounds and communities.
