About us

Foxglove is a litigation and campaigning nonprofit that exists to make the use of technology fair. When governments and major tech companies use technology to abuse their power, we investigate, litigate and campaign to make it right. 

Big Tech companies have become so large – gobbling up a huge slice of the global marketplace and an unprecedented treasure hoard of user data – that they’re now more powerful than many states. The harmful effects of this concentration of power are everywhere – threats to our democracy, to our privacy, decimated workers’ rights and platforms rife with disinformation and hate. Governments are ploughing ahead with the use of algorithms and mass data systems to cut costs and increase efficiency often resulting in digital tools that entrench unfairness and leave the most vulnerable in society in crisis. All these problems are only getting worse with generative AI.

Foxglove works to bring the rule of law to the tech and AI giants who have upended our public square, workplaces, and social lives. We fight to reduce these anti-democratic behemoths’ size and power and we challenge them for abusing their workers. We also work to ensure public bodies use data and algorithms openly, fairly, and legally. 

We have a strong track record. We’ve launched landmark cases seeking structural changes to big tech’s harmful business models, supported 180+ Facebook content moderators fired for trying to form a union to sue Facebook and their outsourcing company, Sama – winning world-first judgements. We helped launch Africa’s first content moderators' union and are urging UK and EU regulators to halt Big Tech’s maneuvers to hoover up generative AI as it has the rest of our online world. We have forced disclosure of secret contracts between tech giants and the NHS, stopped a racist Home Office visa streaming algorithm, helped make grading fair for UK A level students, forced the government to pause the NHS Data Grab and challenged the Department of Work and Pension’s use of an algorithm unfairly flagging disabled people for benefit fraud investigations.

We are a small but growing team of lawyers, communications experts, and campaigners. Our work is global, and we work in partnership with lawyers, civil society, unions, and impacted people. 

About you

You are an experienced lawyer with a strong interest in using the law to hold governments and companies to account. You understand change doesn’t only take place within the walls of the court and that movements only succeed when they’re inclusive, making as many people as possible see they have a stake in these issues. You are a self-starter with the initiative to find opportunities, but the team-spiritedness to contribute to a shared goal and celebrate others’ work. If that’s you, and the Foxglove mission excites you, we would love to hear from you.

The role

The post holder will be responsible for managing Foxglove’s legal team and legal work. You will drive forward a range of cases, including the development of case theories, investigating and collecting evidence, drafting correspondence, evidence and submissions. You will also be responsible for coordinating and managing external legal teams. UK and international travel is required. 

Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Case Development and Management

• Listen to affected communities, unearth issues caused by tech injustice, and come up with innovative legal solutions.
• Build and maintain relationships with impacted community members, unions, other lawyers, experts, co-counsel, intervenors, civil society organisations and the public.
• Draft and comment on technical and legal documents and correspondence.
• Effectively work with the co-Executive Director to implement Foxglove’s legal strategy
• Manage and supervise the legal team.

• Contribute to social media posts, blogs and op-eds. 
• Speak to the press about Foxglove’s cases as required.

Person Specification

Essential 

• A strong interest in using the law to hold government and companies to account. 
• Qualified lawyer in any jurisdiction with at least senior legal experience. 
• Ability to learn new areas of law quickly and develop new areas of work.
• Demonstrable knowledge in conduct of cases from initial advice through to trial.
• Relevant experience in analysing complex factual and legal situations and helping to advise clients in accordance with their aims.
• Experience in dealing sensitively with clients and experts.

In recent years, there has been ever increasing interest in lifestyle and MS, and the body of research is systematically increasing. Overcoming MS therefore has a need for someone to regularly review the most recent research, update our Program recommendations, and ensure we communicate the latest updates with our community – working alongside our Medical Advisor. In the medium to longer term, we would like to identity research gaps and have a role in influencing, or even commissioning, lifestyle research to add to the current research base.

Key Responsibilities:

• To oversee the Overcoming MS Program recommendations, ensuring our advice always adheres to the latest and most robust evidence.
• To review each of the seven Overcoming MS pillars, review the evidence available, making any changes as needed. Work with the team to communicate any changes within the community, including leading the development of new tools and guides as needed (eg How to talk to your GP about testing vitamin D levels).
• To identify gaps in the existing Program based on new research (eg sleep, intermittent fasting etc), reviewing the evidence base and making recommendations on adaptations and support tools (subject to IP owner approval).
• To foster solid relationships with key stakeholders (including Facilitators and expert advisors) to ensure buy in and understanding in any updates or changes to research evidence and the Program.
• To create a research strategy, to maximise Overcoming MS’s credibility and reputation within MS lifestyle research.
• To support the communication of new studies published in reputable journals, enabling Overcoming MS to quickly understand the relevance to our community and the Program, formulating an action plan and supporting a public response where relevant.
• To support Overcoming MS’s public profile, giving credibility and expertise in the research behind the Program, including presenting at conferences, submitting articles and posters for publication, etc.
• To support the collation of impact evidence to demonstrate the value of Overcoming MS to individuals and as part of funding applications.
• To create a network of external research advisors, possibly creating a Research Advisory Group, to ensure oversight of upcoming research as well as diversity of opinion on research outcomes and their impact.
• To identify potential partners to collaborate with on research projects that corroborate the existing Program, fill research gaps, or build additional independent evidence around healthy lifestyle and MS.
• To manage the research section of the website.
• Longer term, to create a position for Overcoming MS in identifying research gaps, influencing new research, the role of the Overcoming MS community in research projects, and (subject to funding) commissioning research.

By ensuring the SEND workforce are fully equipped to meet the needs of learners with SEND, we create sustainable, positive change in the lives of children and young adults. Alongside our specialised SEND CPD training we offer for free, we also run a trading arm that generates vital income and directly supports our charitable endeavours. Our trading activities encompass sales of online CPD, accredited courses, consultancy, and statutory projects.

As we continue to grow and expand our reach, we are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Head of Sales and Marketing to lead and oversee the integrated marketing and sales strategies for both our charity initiatives and trading arm. This role is essential to advancing our revenue generation, building strong relationships with supporters, and amplifying our mission-driven goals. You will be pivotal in ensuring that our marketing campaigns and sales efforts work cohesively to enhance our reputation, grow our customer base, and increase revenue, all while maintaining alignment with our charitable values.

Position Overview:

The Head of Sales and Marketing will provide strategic leadership for all marketing and sales efforts across both the charity’s operations and its trading arm. You will be responsible for managing and executing a comprehensive strategy to boost visibility, increase revenue, and foster long-term engagement with both sponsors and customers. The role requires a blend of strategic thinking, sales expertise, and marketing creativity, with the ability to lead cross-functional teams, manage budgets, and integrate commercial goals with the charity’s mission.

As part of the senior leadership team, you will work closely with the Executive Leadership Team, Fundraising, Development, Education, and operations teams to shape the nasen’s public-facing presence. You will be instrumental in maximising our dual revenue streams: fundraising for our charitable programs via events, and sales from our trading activities.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Strategic Leadership & Integration

• Develop and implement an integrated sales and marketing strategy for both the charity’s mission-driven goals and its commercial activities. Ensure the strategy drives the growth of both revenue from trading and funds raised for the charity’s projects.
• Collaborate with senior leadership to set clear, actionable goals for both the charity’s impact and its trading arm’s performance, aligning these objectives with broader organisational priorities.
• Analyse market conditions and trends, including competitor analysis, to identify opportunities and optimise marketing efforts, ensuring we remain agile and responsive to market demands.
• Lead the development of annual marketing plans, considering key events, fundraising activity, the academic calendar, and product launches for the trading arm.
• Ensure that marketing campaigns reflect both the charitable mission and the commercial interests of the trading arm, maintaining a balance between profitability and mission-driven messaging.
• Design and execute a route to market strategy that integrates all the charity's revenue-generating and charitable activities, ensuring products/services reach the right target audiences through optimal channels.
• Evaluate sales channels and assess whether there are further opportunities for direct-to-consumer sales, commercial partnerships, e-commerce, or affiliate marketing models that could expand market reach for both charity donations and commercial sales.

2. Marketing and Brand Development

• Lead the overall brand strategy, ensuring consistency and alignment across the charity’s marketing, digital, and communications efforts, both for the charitable initiatives and the trading arm.
• Oversee the creation of compelling marketing collateral, including digital content, print materials, advertising, and promotional campaigns that resonate with both sponsors and customers.
• Guide the development of integrated marketing campaigns that incorporate both charity-related content and the trading arm’s product offerings, reinforcing the message of social good while promoting commercial activities.
• Supervise digital marketing efforts, including website optimisation (SEO), social media strategies, and email marketing, to increase traffic, raise awareness, and drive conversions for both donations and product sales.
• Enhance public relations efforts, cultivating strong relationships with media outlets to ensure positive press coverage of both the charity’s work and the trading activities.

3. Revenue Generation & Sales Strategy

• Develop and drive sales strategies for the charity’s trading arm, including pricing, promotions, customer segmentation, and cross-selling opportunities.
• Collaborate with the education team to create and market new product lines or services, ensuring they align with the charity’s values while meeting the needs and preferences of customers.
• Oversee the development and execution of sales funnels and customer acquisition strategies to increase conversion rates, sales volume, and customer retention.
• Implement loyalty and retention programs that encourage repeat purchases from customers of the trading arm and foster long-term engagement.
• Monitor sales performance, ensuring alignment with set targets, and provide timely adjustments to campaigns, product offerings, and pricing strategies to maximise revenue.
• Work with fundraising teams to ensure synergies between donation drives and trading promotions, leveraging the strength of both income sources.

4. Sponsor and Customer Engagement

• Develop effective strategies for sponsor stewardship, ensuring ongoing engagement with supporters through personalised communication, recognition programs, and impactful storytelling that ties the trading arm’s products to the charity’s mission.
• Utilise customer relationship management (CRM) systems to create tailored communication plans and deepen engagement with both sponsors and customers, encouraging more frequent and larger sponsorship or purchases.
• Foster a community of loyal supporters and customers, turning first-time buyers into repeat purchasers, and sponsors into long-term, committed advocates.
• Design campaigns that target both customers and sponsors, converting customers into sponsors by emphasising the positive social impact of their purchases, and vice versa.

5. Team Leadership and Development

• Lead a dynamic team of sales, marketing, and digital professionals, providing guidance, mentorship, and opportunities for professional development to ensure they reach their full potential.
• Foster a collaborative, high-performance culture within the marketing and sales teams, with a focus on creativity, accountability, and shared success.

• Identify and cultivate strategic partnerships with corporate sponsors, influencers, retail partners, and community organisations to extend reach and enhance fundraising opportunities.
• Develop marketing strategies for key seasonal and high-traffic events (e.g. Black Friday or January Sales), ensuring the charity and trading arm are both prominently featured.

7. Data Analytics and Performance Reporting

• Establish key performance indicators (KPIs) for both the marketing and sales efforts across the charity and trading arm, with a strong focus on return on investment (ROI) for campaigns and product sales.
• Regularly analyse marketing data, tracking performance across channels, evaluating campaign results, and identifying areas for improvement.
• Provide detailed monthly, quarterly, and annual reports to senior leadership, highlighting successes, challenges, and opportunities for future growth.
• Conduct customer and sponsor behaviour analysis, utilising insights to adjust marketing and sales strategies and improve targeting.
