Educational inequality between the most and least advantaged students is the highest it has ever been. Students from less advantaged backgrounds are 18 months behind their more advantaged peers when it comes to GCSEs and progress to competitive universities at a rate of 2 in 100 compared to 28 in 10.
Our Policy Lead will build The Brilliant Club as a trusted voice within the education sector, so that we can shape decisions being made so that they reduce rather than embed this inequality.
This is a critical moment to be joining the charity as we deliver the final year of our current Join the Club strategy and begin planning our next strategy, launching in September 2026. This role will work closely with the Executive Leadership Team, Director of Marketing and Communications and our Research and Impact Team to identify our policy priorities and bring the charity’s networks, data and stories together to drive them forward.
The Policy Lead will identify opportunities to engage in policy discussions, build relationships with sector stakeholders and education networks, secure conference speaking opportunities and write policy briefings.
The Policy Lead will be part of the External Affairs team and will be line managed by the Director of Marketing and Communications.
We support less advantaged students to access the most competitive universities and succeed when they get there.
