We actively encourage people with a visible difference to apply. We are also always open to conversations about flexible working. 

People with visible differences are vulnerable to isolation, loneliness, social anxiety and low self-esteem. They face staring, harassment, bullying and even hate crime. They experience lowered expectations in school, problems getting work and stereotyping in the media. This can have a devastating, and lasting, impact on their wellbeing – we know one in three people with a visible difference feels depressed, sad or anxious because of how they look. 

Changing Faces provides unique practical, social and emotional support for children, young people and adults affected by visible difference, we challenge discrimination, and we campaign for a world that respects difference.

Our Wellbeing services build confidence and resilience – giving people the tools to manage their feelings, cope in different social settings, handle other people’s reactions or deal with transitions such as starting school, university or work. We are going through an important period of change and development in the Wellbeing Services – both launching our national children and young people’s model and embarking on a revisioning and redefinition of our 1-1 and clinical model across the service. 

Changing Faces wants a future where everyone with a visible difference on their face or body has the confidence, support and opportunity to lead the lives they want. 

Salary range / benefits: £37,938.34 – £42,688.68 (Changing Faces’ policy is to offer posts at the first point on this scale / negotiable); 25 days basic holiday; 6% pension contribution 

Application method: Please download the attached Job Description and provide a full CV and a comprehensive supporting statement, with clear demonstration of how you meet each point of the person specification and job requirements. Please do let us know where you saw the role advertised too.

Closing date: 10am Monday 8th March 2021 

Interviews: Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th March 2021

About Family for Every Child

Family for Every Child is dedicated to a vision of a world where every child can grow up in a permanent, safe and caring family, supported by temporary, quality alternative care where needed.

Fundamentally, we are driven by three strategic goals:

1. Enabling children to grow up in permanent, safe and caring families, and

2. Ensuring a range of high-quality alternative care choices

3. Taking steps to prevent children from having to live outside of any adult care, without the care of families or other carers, and in the interim protecting these boys and girls

We are an Alliance of national member organisations (local civil society organisations) which has grown from a handful of members 4 years ago to a network of now over 43 members in 38 countries around the world. 

Family for Every Child was developed to demonstrate a different way of doing international collaboration. It is premised on the importance of diverse and contextually informed knowledge from all parts of the globe being given equal value internationally. Although our members all grow independently, they are connected by a shared “root” system, tended to by a small team of Family for Every Child staff (the Secretariat). This makes each member more effective, and the network as a whole more resilient, because together, we’re more than the sum of our parts. We believe in collective leadership and working horizontally bringing together our member organisations, our Secretariat and our Boards. We are committed to becoming a model of ways of working that starts to decolonise the sector. We are determined to improve as an Alliance on this journey.

Ours is a “future focused” model that will facilitate growth, change and impact in a sustainable way.

The majority of our governing body of trustees that forms the international Family for Every Child Board are members themselves. The Board has legal responsibility for the general management of Family for Every Child, including ensuring effective use of resources and overseeing risk and performance. 

Since our collective work is led by diverse organisations in every region of the world, we have a relatively small Secretariat team supporting the members that contributes to this collective change, with Alliance members taking the lead. 

We connect online, and have no physical offices. This light and agile team is located in different parts of the world and exists to accompany and support members to develop their own capacities and grow the Alliance. 

Family for Every Child now wants to extend that impact beyond our core members by launching a Community of Practice to support the wider care sector in their COVID-19 response and recovery, and beyond. 

Role summary

We are currently recruiting an Interim Member Engagement Manager to lead the Member Engagement Team for a maternity cover period of 5 months. The team has collective responsibility for contributing to the delivery of Family for Every Child’s (Family’s) Membership Development Plan by growing the Alliance, supporting all aspects of the member journey from scoping of new members, orientation when members join the Alliance, supporting their transition to full membership and their five year review; strengthening and facilitating member’s engagement and learning; overseeing the approach to members’ due diligence and safeguarding; and overseeing planning for the knowledge management portfolio and development of our Community Platform - Changemakers for Children.

Management responsibility includes budget oversight for the whole team, reporting and forecasting, contracting and managing consultants and interpreters and line management of 5 direct reports.

This role works closely with the Director of Alliance Programme to support preparation of reports for the Board and attendance at quarterly Board Membership Committee meetings.

We are a global Secretariat and we are currently wanting to more broadly reflect geographic and cultural diversity.  We therefore welcome applications from candidates in  South Africa, Kenya, India and the UK.   Excellent command of English (oral and written) is a must, but  proficiency in Spanish, Portuguese, French or Arabic would be advantageous.

Key skills for this role including the need to be flexible and adaptable, a highly skilled communicator with strong relationship building, negotiation and diplomacy skills. The post holder must evidence a respectful, empathetic and supportive approach to work with national civil society organisations, who seeks to identify and build on strengths, and acknowledges the challenges such agencies face in their day to day work.  This role works across different actors, cultural contexts, technical areas and bridges silos within the organisation and the wider Alliance. 

This role is home based and the post holder will ideally have experience of working from home as part of a remote, international team. 

Please visit our website for the full job description. 

Salary 

Range: £49,000 - £54,000 UK equivalent salary. This will be pro-rated for part time hours. 

In addition, we offer generous benefits and family-friendly policies.

Salary will be determined based on experience and the location of post holder with a cost of living adjustment agreed, using market rate salary data and converted into local currency.

Working hours

Part time - 3.5 days per week (0.7 FTE = 24.5 hours per week)

Working pattern to be agreed on appointment.

Contract type

Fixed term (minimum 5 months) - to start by 26 April - end September 2021

Maternity cover

Location

The position is home based, within the country of residence of the candidate, ideally South Africa, Kenya, India or UK

The post holder will be employed by Family For Every Child and must therefore ensure that they have the legal right to work within the county they are based.  Family For Every Child does not support applications for working visas and there is no relocation support.  We require proof of entitlement - visa and/or passport - and we will need a signed declaration for tax and social security purposes in order to ensure we comply with local legislation.  Should the tax and or employment legislation within the country you are based prohibit Family For Every Child from employing you directly then we will explore the option of an Employer of Record/Professional Employment Organisation arrangement. If the cost or mechanism of ensuring legitimate employment within your country of residence proves prohibitive, Family for Every Child reserves the right to withdraw your application from the selection process.

About Us

We are the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), an independent grant-making charity that is committed to ensuring that children from all backgrounds can fulfil their potential and make the most of their talents.

We offer grants to a variety of organisations, such as schools, local authorities and charities, to trial new projects aiming to help 3 – 18 year olds succeed, whether that’s improving their educational performance, giving them valuable life skills or preparing them for the world of work or further study.

High quality research and evaluation is at the heart of our work. We look for projects with evidence that they have the potential to raise attainment. We then commission an evaluation, largely using randomised controlled trials, to build on and extend the existing evidence.

We are now offering secondment opportunities for a new team of Content Specialists to join us on a part-time basis from mid/late August for one year fixed-term and to cover the following domains of expertise: maths, literacy, science, learning behaviours, SEN, and the early years.

About the Role

We know this is a difficult time for schools and teachers. It has been a tough year of partial closures, grappling with providing remote provision and face-to-face teaching, and there are likely more challenges ahead. If you are interested in supporting schools across England as they rise to this challenge, using evidence to inform their teaching and support for pupils – especially the most disadvantaged- these roles could be for you…

About You

As a Content Specialist, you’ll be a crucial link between the actual experience teaching in schools and the research evidence.

You’ll play a vital role across the EEF in making sure our work is relevant, accessible, and ultimately useful to teachers.

As experts with a deep understanding of practice, with some experience of supporting other teachers, along with using high-quality evidence to inform your work, you’ll have the opportunity to influence both practice and national policy.

We will support you to succeed in this exciting and ambitious role. You can be based anywhere in England, and we’d expect most of these roles to be on a secondment, part- time basis (current content specialists teach and lead in their schools). 

For more information on the roles, and what we are looking for, along with examples of what the current team have achieved so far (before they head back to their schools), please see the full job description.
