About Kidney Care UK

3.5 million people in the UK have chronic kidney disease (CKD), a diagnosis that can turn your world upside down.

For 50 years, Kidney Care UK has been at the forefront of supporting people with kidney disease. From our early days when we campaigned to introduce donor cards in the UK, we have worked hard to support and represent the interests of everyone affected by this lifelong condition. We provide practical, emotional, and financial support for individuals and their families, while also working with healthcare professionals to improve care services and campaign for change.

Kidney disease can affect anyone and there is no cure. We are here for the young and the old, for those struggling to make ends meet, for families and loved ones. We fight tirelessly, giving our total support, to improve the lives of kidney patients and their families.

• Flexi-time – we are flexible about start and finish times, and flexible about your location.

We are Living Streets, the UK charity for everyday walking.

We want to create a nation where walking is the natural choice for everyday, local journeys; free from congested roads and pollution, reducing the risk of preventable illnesses and social isolation. We want to achieve a better walking environment and to inspire people of all generations to walk and wheel more.

As we approach our centenary in 2029, this is a pivotal moment for Living Streets. We’re expanding our influence and shaping the future of transport, health, and planning policy across the UK—and we’re looking for a Public Affairs and Policy Manager to help lead that work.

This is a new and high-impact role. You’ll design and deliver an ambitious advocacy strategy aligned to our organisational goals, strengthen our stakeholder relationships and play a central role in influencing government policy. From devolution to public health and urban planning, your work will help drive meaningful, lasting change.

In this role, you will:

·Develop and deliver a compelling public affairs and advocacy strategy.

·Build and manage relationships with key political and sector stakeholders.

·Lead influencing activity across Westminster, devolved governments, and local decision-makers.

·Oversee the development of policy on transport, health and planning.

·Align policy and campaigns to maximise impact.

We’re looking for someone with strong public affairs experience, sound political judgement, and a track record of influencing change. You’ll be proactive, strategic, and comfortable working in a fast-moving environment.

If you’re ready to use your skills to shape policy and create healthier, more walkable communities, we’d love to hear from you.
