We're looking for a dynamic campaigner to join our team working to ban nuclear weapons and bring about a more peaceful world.

In July 2017, 122 UN member states agreed the 'Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons', which now has over two-thirds the signatories needed to enter into international law. As one of a handful of states possessing nuclear weapons the UK has vocally opposed the ban - but resistance is growing. Many UK MPs have pledged their support, alongside a number of local authorities who have become Nuclear Ban Communities. Via a combination of street campaigning, political lobbying and public information campaigns it is our job to spread the word about the dangers of nuclear weapons and the opportunity a global ban represents.
