We’re on the hunt for a Programme Manager to join us at this exciting stage of Settle’s development. Over the next few years, we hope to grow the number of young people we are working with and develop new services to support young people with a range of support needs.
The Programme Manager will report to our COO. You’ll be managing a team of Settle Coaches working on the frontline, delivering one-to-one sessions with care-experienced young people across London. You’ll use your skills to ensure that the Settle Programme is the best it can be, coach our frontline teams and ensure high quality delivery is maintained for the young people we work with.
You will work with our COO and wider Programme Management team to deliver and develop our safeguarding practice and ensure that the frontline perspective and young people’s experiences are embedded across the organisation. You’ll manage existing referral partnerships and help develop new partnerships as and when needed, as well as share best practice with the partners you manage. You will also have the opportunity to be involved in strategic projects across the organisation.
Our vision is a 21st century Britain where no young person is homeless and all young people get a fair chance at doing well.
Inclusion London is a leading disability equality organisation run by and for Deaf and Disabled people. We have built a national reputation for effective policy and campaign work and for providing innovative business and organisational support to local Deaf and Disabled people’s organisations (DDPOs) in London. Our mission is nothing less than full equality and inclusion for Deaf and Disabled people, with our communities leading the change we need to see.
About the roles
We have two exciting junior level positions for people who want to build a career in policy and campaigns. You will play a vital role in promoting Deaf and Disabled people’s rights to local and national decision-makers and raising awareness of the structural inequalities facing the Deaf and Disabled community in London and the UK.
You will be eager to support DDPOs to secure policy change at local and national government levels. You will do this by analysing national and local policy developments that affect Deaf and Disabled people’s lives, gathering evidence, drafting policy papers and briefings, and coordinating DDPOs to work together to design and implement influencing strategies.
One of the two new roles will focus on our campaigns for an adequate standard of living for all Deaf and Disabled Londoners, and one will work on our campaign to secure affordable accessible housing in the capital.
You will receive regular support from colleagues to develop your knowledge and skills across a range of policy areas.
About you
- Are you passionate about social justice and promoting Deaf and Disabled people’s rights?
- Do you have experience of working in policy or producing social policy research and analysis, whether through work, activism, or academia? Do you have good campaigning and influencing skills that you want to develop and use to bring about tangible social change?
Then this job might be for you! You can be a recent graduate, someone who is looking for a career change, or someone who wants to build on their existing policy skills. This job will give you the chance to work across a range of policy and campaigning disciplines, including media, activism, lobbying, research, and peer support, to make a real difference to the lives of thousands of Deaf and Disabled people in London and the rest of England.
IL is committed to equality, diversity and human rights. As a DDPO, we welcome applications from all Deaf and Disabled people, especially those from Black and racially minoritised communities and the LGBTQI+ community.
What we offer
We know our organisation flourishes because of our committed staff. We value initiative and will encourage and support you to develop your talents and skills, including accessing relevant training. You will learn a lot on the job and will be supported by senior colleagues to develop your skills. We provide a flexible working environment to enable our employees to enhance their personal and professional development.
We support flexible/homeworking with a mix of home and office at our fully accessible office in Vauxhall.
