Using Anonymous Recruitment
This organisation is using Anonymous Recruitment to reduce bias in the first stages of the hiring process. Our system keeps your personal information hidden until the recruiter contacts you.
Are you excited by an opportunity to demonstrate disabled people’s ability to contribute to a fairer society for all?
Inclusion Barnet is Barnet’s Deaf and Disabled People’s Organisation (DDPO). All of the board and 80% of staff declare an impairment, and we’re passionate about using our lived experience of disability to work towards inclusive communities and greater social justice for all. This means that, in addition to our traditional services delivered by and for disabled people, we are a groundbreaking organisation working to demonstrate that as disabled people we can take a leadership role in our local community. In a world where disabled people are too often underestimated or written off, we need your help to tell this story.
We’re looking for a natural communicator who can tell our story in an accessible and compelling way. You’ll be able to think creatively, and grasp the bigger picture, whilst being comfortable keeping across routine but vital tasks such as producing newsletters and updating social media. You’ll take pride in making those outputs the best they can be, whilst also being comfortable briefing local journalists and telling our story. It’s required that you have your own lived experience of disability, which could include mental health issues or a long term condition. We also particularly welcome applications from global majority candidates, who are currently underrepresented at this level in our organisation.
Your role will focus on three of our projects: Healthwatch Barnet, which provides the local resident voice in health and social care; our work with the Barnet Together Alliance supporting the local voluntary sector; and the work of the NCL VCSE Alliance, which we currently chair.
To succeed, you will need solid communications and PR experience, and an ability to write fluent, interesting copy as well as a familiarity with social media and a basic understanding of design principles. In return, you will become part of a friendly and supportive team, working within a focused but flexible culture, where diversity is valued and you can bring your whole self to work.
This is a UK based role, and whilst much of it can be done from home, there is an expectation that you will be in Barnet two days a week. We encourage flexible working to suit your work/life balance preferences where possible. We also operate a Time Off In Lieu (TOIL) system.
To apply, please submit your CV with a brief covering letter clearly stating how you meet the person specification, and how your own lived experience of disability would inform your approach to the role.
The successful candidate must be willing to undergo a DBS check and have the right to work in the UK.
Shortlisted candidates will be invited for interview at our Colindale office on the 25th and 26th of April.
Please explain what attracts you to the role and outline your relevant experience, including how your lived experience of disability would inform your delivery of the role.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
