We are looking for a new senior political adviser who will help build on our relationships and networks across Westminster, to deliver ambitious political leadership on a range of issues. The post holder will be responsible for leading advocacy interventions and providing political support to our policy experts, primarily in the natural environment theme, with a direct focus on nature, land use, food and farming. 

As a senior political adviser within the politics team, you will also be involved with, and lead on, major projects or themes of work across the political leadership theme (for example, the Environment APPG), managing and developing key external relationships and supporting the Director of politics and Director of strategic partnerships as they lead the politics team. 

You will need to be an exceptional communicator, adept at bringing people together around a shared vision and have the interpersonal skills to inspire and work across Green Alliance and liaise with our extensive network of partners. 

The role entails identifying and leading on opportunities for the UK government to achieve environmental progress and implementing advocacy strategies to secure it. You will have direct access to senior policy makers and environmental leaders, so will need to articulate recommendations succinctly and persuasively. 

The role requires excellent understanding of UK political processes (especially in Westminster, parliament and Whitehall) and experience of using it to influence policy effectively. Experience of operating within the system or of working directly with politicians and the media to achieve policy change would be a distinct advantage. An understanding of environmental policy would be beneficial but is not vital.

You will be a highly organised, capable multi-tasker with experience managing projects and able to think on your feet, while managing multiple relationships and advocating plans concurrently. 

Position in the Organisation

The senior political adviser will report to the Director of strategic partnerships and will work closely with Green Alliance’s policy and communications teams. You will be required to brief and advise the senior management team regularly and will be involved in task managing politics and policy advisers and analysts, with scope for direct line management responsibilities in the future.

Key tasks and responsibilities

• Lead and support the delivery of Green Alliance projects to influence environmental policy. 

• Track issues and analyse their relevance to the organisation’s objectives, and the UK’s environmental agenda, with a particular focus on our efforts to rebuild the cross-party consensus on the environment. 

• Contribute to the implementation of Green Alliance’s political strategy and deputise for senior political staff, where necessary. 

• Represent Green Alliance at external events, including speaking on panels and webinars, and attending events and conferences. 

• Develop and sustain Green Alliance’s relationships with decision makers in Westminster and Whitehall and use them to enhance the impact of our work. 

• Where relevant, develop and maintain relationships across the environmental sector to maximise impact of our strategic priorities. 

• Strengthen and expand Green Alliance’s relationships with political journalists in the Westminster lobby and enhance their understanding of environmental issues and the politics around the net zero goal and nature. 

• Write (or ghost write) briefings, articles and content on behalf of Green Alliance, and our partners and allies, to effect meaningful policy change in Westminster. 

• Build relationships with MPs’ and peers’ offices to table Written and Oral Questions, provide briefings for debates and evidence sessions, and more, as well as strengthen relations with relevant select committee staff. 

• Manage projects efficiently, within budget and to deadlines, including the task management of other team members. 

• Initiate new projects and strategically develop existing ones to maximise our impact. 

• Lead funding bids for new projects, including setting budgets and work plans, liaising with the Director of politics and Director of strategic partnerships. 

• Be an active member of the Green Alliance staff team, contributing to a supportive and inclusive work culture. 

• Work effectively as part of a team and work independently with initiative and drive. 

• As required, manage consultants or freelancers. 

• Any other task which may reasonably be requested to be undertaken within the scope of this post.

We are people from across the world standing up for humanity and human rights.

This is a pivotal moment for human rights and for Amnesty International UK. Around the world, authoritarianism is rising, press freedom is shrinking, surveillance is expanding, and inequality is deepening. In the UK, regressive protest laws, the Illegal Migration Act, systemic racism and hostile welfare systems show how urgently rights must be defended. At the same time, funding pressures across the non-profit sector make this fight more challenging, and more vital, than ever.

This is an extraordinary role, demanding both courage and vision. We are seeking a CEO who can be a steadying force and a strategic fundraiser, able to lead with cultural competence and integrity.

You will bring the breadth and depth of leadership experience needed to step confidently into a complex environment and, from the very start, unite members, activists, boards, staff and the wider global movement. You will be a visionary strategist who looks beyond short-term challenges and helps shape Amnesty’s future over the next decade, ensuring the organisation remains bold, relevant and sustainable, balancing movement-building with financial stewardship.

As a people-centred leader, you will bring emotional intelligence, resilience and the ability to inspire confidence, nurture a high-performing team, creating a culture of psychological safety and bringing people together in a polarised world. You will be a powerful communicator and ambassador, comfortable holding external space, building alliances, and telling Amnesty’s story with clarity and conviction.

Your financial acumen will allow you to navigate our dual structure, steward resources responsibly, and find innovative ways to grow income. Above all, you will lead as an, inspiring and collaborative change-maker: someone who listens deeply, respects diverse voices and leads democratically, while still taking clear, pragmatic decisions.
