About Results UK

Results’ mission is to work with others to create the public and political will to end poverty, by enabling people to exercise their personal and political power for change.​

Internationally, we work with Results organisations around the world, and in health we also work with partners in India, Kenya, Zambia and elsewhere through the international ACTION Global Health Advocacy Partnership. Results UK believes the building blocks of the end of poverty can be most simply articulated as “health, education, economic opportunities, and citizen voice”. These are the things that all people, wherever they live, need and have a right to.

Within these areas, we prioritise a small number of specific issues where we can have the most influence to achieve much needed development progress. Across all our issues, our aims are to mobilise resources, change policy, and create the public and political will that will bring about change.

Role description

Results has a long and successful history of engaging with UK parliamentarians around international development issues and providing them with the briefings and questions they need to raise these issues in parliament. As the Parliamentary Advocacy Officer for Education, you will lead our parliamentary work on education issues in line with our new strategy and commitment to equity. You will have a good understanding of how the UK Parliament works and how to engage parliamentarians in our issues. 

You will lead relationships with UK parliamentarians around global education, including providing the Secretariat for the APPG Global Education.

Key responsibilities

Parliamentary advocacy

● Working with the Head of Parliamentary Advocacy and others in the organisation to develop and implement a high impact and politically astute advocacy strategy for global education.

● Alongside the specific global education strategy, contribute to the development of Results’ overarching parliamentary advocacy strategy, working closely with the Head of Parliamentary Advocacy and other members of the team.

● Lead on the parliamentary work on global education for Results UK, by building and strengthening relationships with MPs and Peers that result in their championing the end of poverty, specifically the importance of global education, and building support for the key elements of strong national education systems.

The APPG secretariat/coordinator function includes guiding the Group’s work programme and activities, arranging meetings and events, corresponding with the APPG Officers and Members, briefing MPs and Peers to ask questions or speak in parliamentary debates and representing the Group externally, for example with the FCDO, Global Partnership for Education, Education Cannot Wait and others.

● Lead the planning, delivery and evaluation of Parliamentary Delegations to other countries and advocacy tours to the UK, working with the relevant Policy Advocacy Officer and others in the Parliamentary Team.

● Work closely with the Grassroots Advocacy Team to ensure parliamentary and grassroots campaigning activity is coordinated and the greatest impact is achieved between the relationships our grassroots campaigners build with their local MPs, and the work led from the office to support MPs in Parliament.

● Ensure our parliamentary advocacy and relationships always remain non-partisan and cross-party, in line with our charitable aims and objectives.

Partners and coalitions

● Liaise with other global Results organisations, to coordinate our parliamentary advocacy at a global level.

● Work closely with civil society and other partner organisations and allies in the UK to coordinate parliamentary advocacy in the UK.

● Contribute content to Results UK’s website, blog and social media to help achieve our organisational objectives and strengthen our brand presence.

● Publicise the APPG's activities, primarily through its website and twitter account.

● Represent Results at external meetings and events in relation to global education advocacy.

Organisational Development

● Carry out effective monitoring, evaluation and learning of your work, recording activity and outcomes that enables Results UK to measure its success, in addition to measuring the impact of your activities towards these outcomes.

● Be a key part of Results UK’s organisational development by participating in strategic discussions, evaluations, sharing your experience and ideas, and working flexibly to support other staff as required.

● Actively develop and support funding ideas to help appropriately expand Results UK’s portfolio in close collaboration with the Head of Parliamentary Advocacy and the Operations team.

● Build new and strengthen existing relationships with donors, external partners, and our advocacy targets.

● Together with the Senior Policy and Parliamentary Advocacy Officer for Education, be responsible for regular reporting to grant funders.

● Be flexible and undertake other tasks as required.

Why work for Results?

Like you, we're passionate about ending poverty. We’re a small, collaborative organisation that has a big impact. We just do advocacy - we don’t run programmes. The experience you gain with us sets you up for a career in international development. Here are a few of the benefits of joining us, in addition to the salary, pension and annual leave outlines at the top of this document.

Work-life balance

• We offer flexible working so you can manage work around your own needs.
• Hybrid working means you don’t have to be trapped in a long commute every day and don’t have to be London based.
• Staff members have their birthdays off as a bonus day of leave and we close the office between Christmas and new year so you don’t need to take leave.
• We subscribe to the Bupa employee advice line – free confidential access to financial and legal advisors as well as telephone and online counselling sessions.
• In addition we run training on mental health at work and have named mental health first aiders who can be contacted in confidence if you would like help finding support.
• All staff have the opportunity to join working groups outside of their work areas according to their interests. Our staff wellbeing team explores how we can improve our staff wellbeing  - most recently publishing a comprehensive guide - and reviews what we have done to date.

Anti-oppression

• We offer half a day’s anti-oppression learning leave each year
• As well as making reasonable adjustments, we support our staff in making applications to the Access to Work scheme to get additional equipment where needed.
• We offer disability leave for disabled colleagues to manage specific needs they may have without having to give up their holidays.
• We have a staff working group on anti-oppression which helps to develop our work on anti-oppression and identify gaps in our current work.

Partnerships

• Results UK hosts three other organisations working on specific aspects of global health and education, so you benefit from other perspectives and get an in-depth understanding of other work going on in the sector.
• We are part of the ACTION global health partnership which brings together CSOs from around the world to share learning and coordinate advocacy.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

At Results UK, we believe in equality, diversity and inclusion, and that it should be the norm. As well as this being an issue of equality and fairness, we recognise that diverse and inclusive organisations are some of the most productive and impactful.

As an organisation, we are aware of the underrepresentation of certain groups and communities in our sector. These include - but are certainly not limited to - people from Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities, refugees, people with disabilities and people from lower socio-economic backgrounds.

We want to change this and are committed to playing our part as an organisation. As a committed equal opportunities employer, we actively welcome applications from people of a wide range of backgrounds, skills and abilities, recognising the value that these different perspectives bring to our organisation.

About the PVRI
We’re a small charity with a global reach and an important purpose: to reduce the burden of pulmonary vascular disease (PVD) - a serious condition that can lead to heart damage and trigger symptoms like breathlessness, chest pain, fatigue, poor growth, fainting, and light-headedness. PVD can reduce both quality of life and length of life, but it isn’t widely recognised or well-understood.

Our aim is to improve clinical care, education, and PVD research. To do this, we bring together an international network of thousands of clinicians, scientists, academics, and industry partners supported by our small team based in Bermondsey, London. Together, we deliver conferences, e-learning, and an academic journal, raise awareness of PVD, and encourage collaboration in research.

About the role
We are seeking a Marketing Officer to help grow and service the charity's international membership, increase the value of our membership offer, increase our income, and deliver our e-learning programmes. You’ll help ensure our members are informed about the latest developments and learning opportunities, and they’re valued for their contributions to the PVRI. No two days are the same. One day, you might be writing content for our website and social media channels, and the next, you might be welcoming respected speakers and attendees from over 30 countries to our scientific webinar.

We are looking for someone with excellent written and verbal communication skills and attention to detail. You’ll need to create successful marketing plans and grow our membership. You will also bring excellent organizational skills and the ability to coordinate high-quality webinars.

If this sounds like you, we can’t wait to hear from you!

What we can offer
We offer a 35-hour working week and flexible working, a positive learning culture, international travel, and opportunities for you to learn and grow in your role. And for those who prefer hybrid working, we’re based in a vibrant, sociable office space close to London Bridge and Borough Market.
