PIRC works to support our movements—for equality, anti-oppression, and climate justice—to tell better stories for a just world: 

  • We connect diverse groups, in participatory spaces, to share knowledge, develop strategies and strengthen movements;
  • We carry out strategic research to support this work;
  • And we create and openly share resources and tools for developing better strategy and communications. 

For us, this work is not just about communication: our practices must reflect and strengthen the stories we tell, and the values that underpin them. Our approach is strongly rooted in the social sciences, and is led by principles of:

  • liberation
  • connection
  • participation
  • creativity

We advocate an approach that can be used by grassroots groups with limited financial resources, who often find themselves excluded by mainstream strategic communications work.

The Role:

Strategic Leadership

  • With the Head of Programmes, co-lead, as part of a collaborative process with the full staff team, the development and review of the operational strategy and budget
  • Plan and facilitate Core Team Meetings
  • Provide oversight and input into funding applications and reports

  • Play an active role in the organisational restructure and its evaluation and review, including development of this role.

Team Leadership & People (HR) Management:

  • Oversee HR & legal practices (e.g. policy guidance)
  • Coordinate the development of PIRC’s organisational policies and staff handbook
  • Coordinate recruitment, induction, exit processes and job descriptions
  • Oversee staff development: appraisals, mentoring, anti-oppression 121s, skills audits, and all-team training needs 
  • Oversee individual staff training and personal development needs
  • Provide support to Core team members (such as Fundraising Lead and Finance Lead) 
  • Oversee confidential and/or official People processes (such as grievance, performance  & disciplinary procedures; long-term illness processes and workplace adjustments), utilising the support of the People subgroup and People Support Co-op (PIRC’s external HR support)
  • Oversee anti-oppression planning and development 
  • Provide oversight over TOIL and Annual Leave

Institutional Administration & legal

  • Liaise with PIRC Board ‘People SubGroup’
  • Liaise with Financial Lead / Company Secretary

Associates and consultancy work

  • Coordinate the set up and contracting of new consultancy/external work
  • Onboard and set up contracts for associates and CDT (PIRC’s delivery advisory group) members
