In these unprecedented times, Citizens Advice is at the frontline of helping people face the challenges presented by the coronavirus pandemic. Between 9 March and 9 April, we helped 220,000 people with one-to-one advice over the phone, by email and webchat and our website saw 9 million views.

Our teams are working hard to provide the best advice for people in difficult situations. We’re responding rapidly to people’s changing needs, and helping those who need us most.

The Lab is a small multidisciplinary team, within the Customer Journey team. We do rapid experimentation in areas we know less about to find new ways to meet the needs of our users.  

We do this in the leanest possible way. For example, in our Speech to Text experiment we tested a prototype without using the technology at all. 

We’re here to help Citizens Advice transform its processes, ways of working, and technology to better meet our users’ needs. This means our experiments are as often behavioural as they are technological. The Lab takes an inventive, responsible and generous approach to its work, building on the expertise and ideas of colleagues across the network. It works openly, with a core team of innovation experts and in collaboration with colleagues from other disciplines. 

As one of two product owners in the Lab your role will be to ensure the effective development and delivery of ideation, experimentation and prototyping of ideas for the Citizens Advice of the future. The role is responsible for leading the incubation phase of these propositions, as well as building engagement and ownership across the organisation for successful scaling. 

You will be doing this through co-designing an Incubator Network – a group of local Citizens Advice offices who we work with to test and pilot ideas – and by working with a diverse group of collaborators. Systemic change is an important part of what we do, and collaboration skills are key.

Candidates will have:

• Experience of delivering user-centered digital products and services, working with multidisciplinary product teams.
• Ability to plan and facilitate workshops with senior stakeholders to prioritise user needs and product plans, working within resource constraints. 
• Excellent ability to form product backlogs, responding to stakeholder influence while prioritising user-centred features.
• The skills to develop and communicate a product vision and strategy.

Come and join us!

The Organisation

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls.

We believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it’s girls who are most affected.

Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children.

We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood. And we enable children to prepare for – and respond to – crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.

We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over 80 years, and are now active in more than 70 countries.

The Opportunity
 

We are seeking an Innovation Manager to work in the Innovation Team in our Global Hub. This role requires an experienced innovation practitioner with a unique blend of creative and technical skills to help us maximise the impact of our innovation capability across the organisation.

You will be responsible for creating an enabling environment for innovation across the organisation. This will involve the design and implementation of a knowledge management system so previous experience in this area would be beneficial. Furthermore, you will create and implement a communications plan for innovation that will build internal understanding and uptake of innovation principles, methods and tools, as well as creating external awareness of the Innovation team’s capability and opportunities for impactful partnerships.

You will also be leading innovation projects, which includes planning and resource management, coaching of teams across multiple locations, facilitation of live and virtual workshops, managing multiple internal and external stakeholders, and ensuring quality assurance, legal compliance and project scaleup.

We’re seeking a Policy and Campaigns Manager to support our ambition to influence government policy and decision-makers to recognise and support coaching in prisons as an effective rehabilitation intervention. 

You will develop our policy positions and voice, ensuring that we are listening to those with lived experience. You will initiate and lead our campaigns, helping to position Spark Inside as the number one coaching organisation in the criminal justice system. You will be our lead expert in prison policy and rehabilitation, and ensure there is a strong policy and research basis for all our campaigns. You will work across the organisation to ensure policy developments feed into our work, and to ensure that what we do is presented in an engaging way to policy-makers and relevant stakeholders.

This is an interim role initially for 6 months, with the potential to extend, as we navigate the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the delivery of our programmes in prison. We believe that more than ever, we need to be advocating for our work, so that those in prison are not forgotten.

• We promote and support the involvement of patients and service users in the design, provision and scrutiny of local health and care services.
• We listen to Southwark residents about their needs, and their experiences of health and social care services.
• We voice the views and concerns of local people in order to make health and social care services better.

In recent years we have worked on a huge range of topics including GP access, young people's sexual health, the NHS Long Term Plan, A&E use, nursing homes, mental health crisis, carers, and the experiences of the LGBTQ+ community.

The postholder will be responsible for delivering Healthwatch Southwark’s outreach work, building awareness and trust among diverse residents of the borough in order to develop a solid base for gathering intelligence. They will engage people in projects to investigate a wide range of different areas of health and social care, and work closely with the Research & Intelligence Officer to deliver these projects. In order to maximise our reach, they will lead on the recruitment, development and retention of volunteers.

They will also lead on the provision of signposting and information on local health and care services to local people, with the support of the team.

We've recently reviewed our strategy and want to bring our outreach, signposting and intelligence functions closer together, really build our reach and connect more with seldom heard communities - so this is a great time to join us. At a moment of huge global and local change, fresh ideas are very welcome!

Healthwatch Southwark is part of a friendly and supportive team at Community Southwark, well-embedded in the local community through our work with a huge range of organisations. The organisation offers flexible working arrangements, generous annual leave (30 days per year plus bank holidays) and other benefits such as employer 5% pension contribution and tax free bike scheme.

Contract: Until March 2022 with potential for extension, 35 hours per week

A fantastic opportunity has risen for an experienced project manager to join a small charitable foundation to take a lead role in the delivery of its aims and execute operational plans.
