Could you be PLP’s new Senior Research Fellow and support our work improving access to justice for all?

  At Public Law Project (PLP), we work to champion fundamental rights and hold power to account. Our legal challenges have played a pivotal role in successful cases. In just the last year this includes:   

• The fight against the Rwanda deportation policy  
• The Government’s attempts to renege on Windrush commitments   
• Attempts to radically cut disability benefits to 100,000 people without lawful consultation   
• Intervention in the challenge against draconian and unconstitutional anti protest laws 

Our work is highly respected, impactful, and deeply valued across the legal and social justice sectors.

The Role

This Senior Research Fellow post offers the opportunity to join our team of researchers working to achieve PLP’s strategic objectives. This role will focus on ensuring that justice is accessible to all.

As a Senior Research Fellow, you will help us shape and deliver our research agenda.

Your work will be central to our efforts to design and advance a fair and inclusive administrative law justice system and advocate for a better resourced and more effective system.

You will be a team player, who embodies PLP’s values and supports collegiate and inclusive working culture. Working closely with colleagues in casework, public affairs, communications, events and fundraising, you will bring a deep commitment to using research as a lever for change. You will use your expertise to represent PLP externally, collaborate effectively with external partners including people with lived experience and help advance our strategic priorities.

This is envisaged as a full-time role but we will consider part time arrangements for the right person.
