Why work for Results and IPNEd​

Like you, we're passionate about ending poverty. We’re a small, collaborative organisation that has a big impact. We just do advocacy - we don’t run programmes. The experience you gain with us sets you up for a career in international development. Below are a few of the benefits of joining us, in addition to the salary, pension and annual leave outlines at the top of this document.

​

Work-life balance​

• We offer flexible working so you can manage work around your own needs.

• Hybrid working means you don’t have to be trapped in a long commute every day and don’t have to be London based.

• Staff members have their birthdays off as a bonus day of leave and we close the office between Christmas and new year so you don’t need to take leave.

• We subscribe to the Bupa employee advice line – free confidential access to financial and legal advisors as well as telephone and online counselling sessions.

• In addition we run training on mental health at work and have named mental health first aiders who can be contacted in confidence if you would like help finding support.

• All staff have the opportunity to join working groups outside of their work areas according to their interests and are encouraged to pursue professional development opportunities.

• Our staff wellbeing team explores how we can improve our staff wellbeing  - most recently publishing a comprehensive guide - and reviews what we have done to date.

​

• We offer half a day’s anti-oppression learning leave each year

​

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion​

At Results UK, we believe in equality, diversity and inclusion, and that these should be the norm. As well as this being an issue of equality and fairness, we recognise that diverse and inclusive organisations are some of the most productive and impactful.

​

As an organisation, we are aware of the under-representation of certain groups and communities in the international development sector that are often closest to the issues we work on. These include - but are certainly not limited to - people from Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities, refugees, people with disabilities and people from lower socio-economic backgrounds.​

We want to change this and are committed to playing our part as an organisation. As a committed equal opportunities employer, we actively welcome applications from people of a wide range of backgrounds, skills and abilities, recognising the value that these different perspectives bring to our organisation.

About Healthwatch

The Health and Social Care Act 2012 required each local authority area to set up a Healthwatch organisation. Healthwatch gives people a powerful voice both locally and nationally. At a local level, Healthwatch Barnet works to help people get the best from their health and social care services, whether it's improving them today, or helping to shape them for tomorrow. Healthwatch Barnet is about local voices being able to influence the delivery and design of their services, not just for the people who use them, but anyone who might need to use them in future.

Healthwatch Barnet transferred to Inclusion Barnet on 1st April 2020. It is commissioned by the London Borough of Barnet to provide the following 6 key functions:

· Gather views and understand the experiences of patients and the public

· Make people’s views known

· Promote and support the involvement of people in the commissioning and provision of local care services and how they are scrutinised

· Recommend investigation or special review of services via Healthwatch England or directly to the Care Quality Commission (CQC)

· Provide advice and information (signposting) about access to services and support for making informed choices

· Making the views and experiences of local people known to Healthwatch England (and to other local Healthwatch organisations) and providing a steer to help it carry out its role as national champion

About Inclusion Barnet

Inclusion Barnet is a thriving peer-led charity based in North-West London. We believe in the power of experience, and this is demonstrated by all our services being led, developed, and delivered by people with lived experience of disability, including mental health issues and long-term conditions. We believe that learning to use our lived experience for social change is a skill. We have become experts in harnessing the lived experience of our staff, members, volunteers, and people who use our services to design and deliver higher quality, more person-centred services. We believe that this benefits both disabled people and society more widely. We also work to support other organisations to do the same. Our work is very much influenced by the Social Model of Disability. 

Through our three charities, we work in partnership with the Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust to deliver world class care. 

Crucial to this is the energy and focus we bring to ensuring charitable donations are utilised as effectively as possible through the Guy’s Cancer Charity, the Evelina London Children’s Charity and the Guy’s and St Thomas’ Charity. You will work in our Trust Engagement team, which is responsible for developing projects with colleagues at the Trust, making grants to deliver those projects and managing those grants on an ongoing basis. We also manage many donations for specific Trust services, which are held in our special purpose funds and disbursed through partnerships with Trust staff.

 You will play a central role in ensuring the positive impact of our grant making and special purpose funds for patients and staff at the Trust and will work closely with our Funding Managers to support our funding processes and the design and delivery of projects across our three charities.
 

 You will also work closely with colleagues in our Fundraising, Evidence and Impact, Finance and Operations and Communications teams as well as colleagues across the Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust.
 

 This role has huge potential for an ambitious, energetic and self-starting professional to have a significant impact on the lives of patients and staff across the Trust’s hospitals and community sites. 
 

 You do not need established expertise in health; but the ability to learn and establish credibility quickly is important. 
 

 We are committed to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion at all stages of our funding and this will be a crucial element of your role.
