Save the Children UK has an exciting opportunity for a compassionate, values-led and relationship-focused individual with experience in participation or community organising to join us as our Participation Manager – London (9 months fixed term contract maternity cover), where you will work directly with children, young people and families in Tower Hamlets who are experiencing poverty to ensure their voices shape our work and influence decision-makers to drive change.

About Us
Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm.  When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave.  We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.
In the UK, our mission is focused on ending child poverty. We work alongside families, partners and communities to build long-term, place-based and national change, rooted in lived experience and driven by data and evidence. 

About the role
As Participation Manager, you will lead on engaging children, young people and families from Tower Hamlets with lived experience of poverty in our work, ensuring their insights and voices drive the design and delivery of our projects and campaigns. You'll work closely with local communities, partners and internal teams to create safe, inclusive spaces for meaningful participation, helping to build power and influence for those often left unheard. Your work will be instrumental in shaping Save the Children UK's efforts to end child poverty.

This role will also require approximately 2 days per week working with community partners in Tower Hamlets.

If you're committed to equity, participation and making sure families are heard and empowered—we'd love to hear from you.

In this role, you will: 

• Build and sustain trusted relationships with children, families, and community partners in local areas to enable meaningful, safe participation in our work.
• Facilitate sessions with families to listen to what matters to them and create accessible, supportive opportunities for them to influence local and national change.
• Design and contribute to tools and resources for gathering lived experience insights and feeding them into our advocacy, research and programme design.
• Work with teams across the organisation (media, public affairs, campaigns, safeguarding) to ensure children and young people's voices are integrated and elevated.
• Maintain accurate engagement records, contributing to monitoring, evaluation and learning across community-based projects.
• Stay up to date with best practices and safeguarding standards in participation, embedding them in all areas of delivery.

About you
To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Experience of engaging communities, families or young people in participation, co-production, or community organising.
• Strong knowledge of safeguarding and safe working practices when working with children, families and vulnerable groups.
• Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to build trust and long-term relationships with diverse individuals and communities.
• Knowledge of current participation policies and good practice, and a commitment to working inclusively with marginalised voices.
• A passion for social justice and experience or interest in the issues facing families living in poverty.
• Commitment to Save the Children's vision, mission and values.

What we offer you:
Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.

• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.

Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

Ways of Working:
The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter).  This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building. 

Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense. 

Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.

Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: 
Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. 

We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT or in an LGBT family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
