About CRIN
This is who we are and what we are fighting for
CRIN is a creative human rights organisation focused on children’s rights. We press for rights - not charity - and campaign for a genuine shift in how governments and societies view and treat children. Our goal is a world where the human rights of children and young people are recognised, respected, and enforced, and where every rights violation has a remedy.
We work on many issues, from the survival of the planet to sexual violence, to civil and political rights, to the right to bodily integrity, privacy, expression, and information, to how children’s rights are affected by new technology.
We advocate for international institutions like the United Nations, as well as governments and professionals, to adopt strong children’s rights policies. We undertake legal research and analysis and propose better policies where these are lacking. We recognise the importance of activism at all levels and support the campaigning of organisations led by people with lived experience. Through critical thinking, artwork, and our vision for the future, we encourage people to think differently about the world we live in.
About the role
This is the campaign you will be working on
One of the key issues we work on is accountability for sexual violence against children in institutions in Latin America, which aims to challenge impunity and improve access to justice for victims and survivors. Combating sexual violence against children globally has been a core part of CRIN’s work for more than a decade, and from this experience we see common challenges across the most systemic and entrenched forms of institutional abuse and exploitation: secrecy, cover-ups, abuse of power, stigma, shame, and impunity.
To successfully challenge this status quo, we have looked at the experiences of countries like Ireland and Australia, which were some of the first countries where survivors mobilised to demand and secure legal reforms to improve access to justice and establish national inquiries into child sexual abuse which prompted other policy reforms. In an effort to support and strengthen similar survivor-led activism elsewhere in the world, since 2019 CRIN has worked alongside grassroots organisations in Latin America led by adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Our focus has been to support their national campaigning that challenges impunity for abuse committed in the region’s Catholic Church, but we have since expanded the scope of our work to cover institutional settings more broadly.
CRIN’s added value in the campaign includes providing much-needed financial support and capacity building, research support, international and legal advocacy and helping to expand partnerships. By working with survivor-led networks, we aim to encourage their development across the region so that governments can no longer ignore their demands for truth, justice, reforms, and reparations.
This is who we are looking for…
We are looking for someone to coordinate the end-to-end delivery of the campaign. The focus of the role is on project and budget management, strategy planning and implementation, and partnership building. But given the generalist nature of campaigning, you may at times conduct advocacy support, media outreach, research and analysis, and event coordination.
You would work alongside the Legal Advocacy and Campaign Coordinator, as well as part of the core project team comprising the Co-Directors and the Legal and Policy Coordinator.
Your responsibilities will include:
● Leading the delivery of CRIN’s campaign supporting grassroots organisations in Latin America to end impunity for child sexual abuse in institutional settings.
● Building and maintaining trust-based partnerships with grassroots survivor-led networks in Latin America, ensuring engagement is anti-colonial, trauma-informed and participatory.
● Building partnerships with key allies, such as civil society groups, journalists, academics, legal experts, consultants and funders.
● Managing the campaign budget and related administrative tasks, including partnership contracts and sub-granting.
● Providing advocacy, research, and administrative support to partners, as needed.
● Organising capacity-building events to support partners’ organisational development.
● Providing occasional research and writing support to colleagues in the production of advocacy materials, including submissions to human rights bodies and research reports.
● Managing project communications, including updating the campaign webpage, leading on media outreach, coordinating the production of research reports and translating all project materials.
● Working with CRIN’s communications staff to create content for the website, social media, and newsletter.
● Managing the campaign’s Monitoring and Evaluation, recording, and reporting actions, deliverables, and learnings, including coordinating annual progress reports to our funder.
● Participating in regular project meetings to discuss developments, address any issues and plan the next stages of the work.
● Participating in organisation-wide activities such as regular team meetings and collective decision-making.
We are looking for someone with the following attributes:
● Professional experience or interest in issues related to access to justice for survivors of childhood sexual violence.
● Professional experience or interest in working with grassroots organisations and/or survivor-led organisations.
● Native-level fluency in written and spoken Spanish and English.
● Experience in project and budget management.
● Ability to cultivate partnerships with diverse stakeholders, including grassroots organisations, activists with lived experience, civil society organisations, international NGOs, journalists, and lawmakers.
● Knowledge of or interest in participatory approaches to partnerships and decision-making, as well as an understanding of how oppression can manifest in the issues we work on (and how we work as an international NGO) and a keen interest in how we can implement an anti-oppression approach.
● Motivated, with strong organisational skills and ability to manage one’s own work (including while remote-working).
● Ability to think strategically and critically.
● Ability to thrive in a small but diverse international team, with a strong commitment to anti-discrimination, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
The following would also be an advantage:
● Previous experience of working at an NGO and/or in human rights campaigning.
● Comparative knowledge of Latin America’s cultural, legislative and policy context/s.
● Experience in media work.
● Knowledge of national and international human rights mechanisms.
We know that we may sometimes be overcome with feelings of self-doubt when reading job descriptions. Even if you feel you may not hold all the qualifications and experience listed here, we strongly encourage you to apply if you are excited by our vision and the contribution you could make to the role.
What it is like working with us
We are a small team of around 18 people. We take pride in our CRIN Code and try to approach our work and relationships with open minds, humility, and respect. This helps us foster greater creativity, breadth of experience, and personal growth among our staff, and it’s essential to our success as an organisation.
Our staff and consultants work remotely and are located mainly in Europe at the moment, but we are committed to continuing to build a team that reflects the world’s diversity of skills, experiences, cultures, and perspectives. While we have lines of accountability, we also aim to have a relatively flat structure whereby everyone receives support from and is accountable to each other in a number of ways.

Application process
CRIN is committed to building a diverse team, and we encourage applications from underrepresented groups and consider candidates who are suitably qualified and eligible regardless of sex, gender identity, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, education or professional experience.
How to apply
We are not big fans of formulaic responses. We want to know who you are, how you think, what your principles are and why you want to work with us.
Please send a CV (no more than 2 pages) and complete both of the following statements in no more than 250 words each:
● “Improving access to justice is important for child sexual abuse survivors because…”
● “The key to building trust-based partnerships with grassroots survivor-led organisations is…”

“There is nobody else like them in Scotland. They have got credibility, integrity and reach as well. There are lots of advocacy providers, and that is really important, but actually being able to legally represent young people in Scotland, there is nobody else that does that, not as purely as they do it, other people do it attached to other law firms but that complete commitment to the upholding of children’s rights is a really unique thing”. (Stakeholder).
About Clan Childlaw
Clan wants a Scotland where all children and young people’s rights are respected, protected, and fulfilled. For that to happen, Scotland has to be a place where all children and young people can stand up for their rights. That means children and young people need:
- Lawyers that are experts in working with children
- People around them who can enable them to use their rights and amplify their voices
- To be respected as rights-holders, who are entitled to hold duty-bearers to account if their rights are not fulfilled.
Clan is an award-winning, independent children’s charity that actively supports children and young people to take ownership of their rights. We are the only charity in Scotland that provides free, independent legal representation exclusively for children and young people, which is child-centred by design. Because our lawyers work directly with children and young people whose lives are affected by legal decisions, we bring that unique practice-based knowledge to every aspect of our work. This includes our specialist training, our helpline supporting others who help children to use their voices and their rights, and our work to influence children’s rights respecting changes to practice, policy and law.
What We Do
- We stand with others who help children use their rights –
Through our membership and training for legal professionals and in legal education we are making being a “children’s lawyer” an accredited legal skill set in Scotland. Our practical training and helpline and support for advocacy in Children’s Hearings provides adults that support children and young people information and guidance that they can use to empower young people to stand up for their rights.
- We stand out through the excellence of our work –
We want our work to have as much impact as possible. We listen to what children and young people tell us about what they need from lawyers and others who support them to use their rights. We use what we learn to develop and design the services they need and talk about why young people’s rights matter, and why children and young people need lawyers.
- We stand for change –
We are lawyers for children and young people representing children and young people in court, at Children’s Hearings, and in important meetings working to give them equal opportunity to heard and use their rights. We take cases that make change for individual children and young people and help shape better rights respecting policy and practice. We use our knowledge of the law, and experience as practicing lawyers for children and young people, to ask decision makers and lawmakers to change the law and the way the law is used to make sure that children and young people's rights are respected, protected and fulfilled.
