Since 1990, Public Law Project has held power to account through key legal challenges. PLP’s recent work, delivered in close collaboration with its brilliant clients and partners, includes challenging the government’s Rwanda immigration policy, securing justice for the Windrush generation, and scrutinising the use of AI in public decision-making.

Our work is highly respected and deeply valued across the legal and social justice sectors. To continue tackling the most pressing legal injustices of our time, we need you to increase our reach and engagement with our key audiences (including policy makers, the legal community and civil society organisations), amplifying our influence and impact. 

The Role

Reporting to the Communications & Engagement Director, this is an exciting role focused on supporting and building PLP’s external profile and audience engagement. You’ll be responsible for: building relationships with journalists and securing media coverage, day-to-day content creation and the development of our digital channels. You’ll work closely with colleagues across the organisation, as well as partners and clients, to ensure our communications are timely, inclusive, and impactful.

This is an exciting time to join the team. You would be communicating PLP’s work at a time when many of the issues we work on – from immigration to AI – have never been more salient. You would be joining us after we’ve launched our bold new strategy, which envisages a strategic role for external communications. You would be part of an exciting creative process to refresh our visual identity and narrative.

We’re looking for someone who is: 

• A creative storyteller: You will have strong news judgement and storytelling ability and will enjoy translating complex legal and policy issues into compelling content that engages and inspires
• A collaborative colleague: You will enjoy working across teams with colleagues at all levels and with external partners and clients
• Organised and determined: You are an excellent project manager who enjoys developing plans and putting them into action
• Committed to Equity: You resonate with PLP’s commitment to understand and address the effects of discrimination in all our work, both external and internal.

If you’re ready to take up this vital role, we’d love to hear from you! 

As part of our commitment to recruit fairly we use anonymised-selection processes until interview, offer additional interview opportunities to the highest-scoring candidates from under-represented communities, and use ‘tie-breaker’ provisions at all stages of our selection process.

About us

Carers UK is the national charity for unpaid carers. With more than 5.8 million carers in the UK today, we exist to make life better for those who provide unpaid care to family and friends. Through our information and advice services, peer support network, and campaigning for change, we are here for carers when they need us most.

You’ll be joining our Income Generation and Communications team - an ambitious and supportive department where collaboration, innovation and learning are at the heart of what we do. Together, we’re growing sustainable income to ensure unpaid carers across the UK get the support they need and deserve.

About the role

We’re looking for a proactive and organised Nations Trusts and Foundations Officer to help us grow and strengthen our funding from charitable trusts and foundations - specifically those supporting our work in Carers Scotland, Carers Wales, and Carers Northern Ireland.

This is a key role that directly supports policy influence and service delivery across the nations by securing flexible, budget-relieving grants. You’ll be responsible for researching funders, developing compelling applications, and building strong relationships with a range of national and regional trusts. You’ll also work closely with our teams in each nation to stay connected to their priorities and help translate their vital work into fundable and fund-winning cases for support.

It’s an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to deepen their expertise in trust fundraising while contributing to lasting change for unpaid carers.

About you

You’ll have experience of writing successful trust funding applications and will feel confident asking for grants of five figures or more. You enjoy writing clearly and persuasively, and you’re good at building positive relationships with funders over time.

You’re organised and reliable, able to manage a busy workload and keep on top of deadlines. You pay close attention to detail and take pride in producing accurate work, especially when reporting back to funders.
You’re someone who works well with others. You’ll enjoy talking to our teams in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to understand what they need and how funding can help. You’re curious, committed, and care about making a difference to people’s lives.

It’s helpful if you already understand the charity landscape in the nations or the challenges unpaid carers face, but it’s not essential. Most important is that you bring a positive, thoughtful approach and are ready to learn.

At Carers UK we want our application process to be as accessible as possible. If you need any adjustments to apply please email us to discuss.

The closing date for applications is 12pm, Monday 29 September 2025.

• Agree details for first meeting and brief press release to CEO
• Manage the enquiry process for new groups or support volunteer in doing so
• Keep record of enquirers, meeting attendees and memberships of new groups and provide updates at weekly meeting and for Dashboard and HOD reports.

We’re looking for a brilliant Communications & Campaigns Lead to help shape Z2K’s voice, build our brand, and drive real-world change. This is a hands-on role at the heart of a small, fearless charity that consistently punches above its weight.

From securing major media coverage to mobilising supporters and helping force two government U-turns on disability benefit cuts, our communications and campaigns are delivering real impact. With a re-brand on the horizon and a new strategy, this is a particularly exciting time to come on board.

If you’re passionate about challenging injustice through powerful storytelling and action - and want your work to make a genuine difference - we’d love to hear from you.

Why work with us?

Z2K is a bold anti-poverty charity using frontline evidence and powerful campaigns and communications to drive systemic change. We punch well above our weight - recently helping force two unprecedented government U-turns on disability benefit cuts for example. Our media voice is loud and trusted, with recent appearances on BBC News, Channel 4 News, the Today programme, Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, and regular comments in the Guardian, Mirror, and The Sun.

This is a particularly exciting time to join us. We’re planning to launch a new brand, rolling out a new strategy, and growing our supporter base. We’re fearless, person-centred and unapologetically challenging. But most importantly, we’re delivering real, life-changing wins - this is your chance to be part of it.

About the role

We’re looking for an experienced Communications and Campaigns Lead to deliver high-impact public communications and campaigns that strengthen Z2K’s profile, influence change and support our fundraising goals.

Working closely with the Director of Policy & Engagement and colleagues across the organisation, you’ll lead the planning and delivery of engaging communications and campaign activity across digital, media and supporter channels. You will also mobilise supporters and communities for in-person actions that amplify our campaigns and deepen public engagement.

You’ll play a key role in bringing our new organisational strategy and planned rebrand to life - ensuring our external messaging reflects our values, demonstrates our impact, and helps secure the income and influence needed to deliver our mission.

A core part of the role will involve ensuring our fundraising communications are compelling and strategic, helping us build stronger relationships with supporters and funders. Equally, you’ll work with colleagues and communities to design and deliver campaigns that are shaped and delivered by people with living experience of poverty.

This is a broad and varied role, ideal for someone who thrives on collaboration, wants to be hands-on in delivery, and is passionate about challenging injustice through powerful storytelling and action.

About You

 You’ll be a skilled and creative communications and campaigns professional, with a track record of delivering high-impact, audience-focused content and activity across digital, media and supporter channels. You’re confident managing multiple priorities, spotting opportunities in a fast-moving external environment, and adapting messaging to maximise reach and impact. Experience of in person mobilisation would be an added advantage.

You’ll bring strong project management skills and enjoy working collaboratively across teams to produce clear, compelling communications that support fundraising, influence policy, and build public pressure. Whether it’s crafting supporter actions, writing stories that centre lived experience, or securing media coverage, you’ll be comfortable leading delivery while contributing ideas to wider strategic thinking.

You’ll have a keen understanding of how to build trust, grow engagement, and communicate complex issues in a way that connects with audiences. You’ll also be politically engaged and passionate about using communications and campaigns to challenge injustice and drive change.

In return, you’ll join a small charity that punches above its weight with regular coverage in major media outlets and a strong voice in national conversations on poverty. It’s an exciting time to come on board, with a rebrand ahead and a huge opportunity to grow our brand as we make a real difference for people in poverty.
