Good Law project’s (GLP) legal team has a busy workload advising GLP as a party, funder and campaigner in respect of the broad range of legal proceedings in which it is involved, as well as acting on the record in a subset of those proceedings. The current team includes four senior solicitors, two subject matter experts and a trainee. We are seeking to hire a solicitor to round out the team.
CULTURE & CHARACTER
This role requires a value-driven lawyer who is genuinely excited about using the law to make a real-world difference. Thriving in a passionate, non-corporate environment where legal strategy goes hand-in-hand with public campaigns, they are a supportive, proactive, and adaptable team player. They are rolling up their sleeves to help senior colleagues on high-profile public law cases, confidently running their own matters, while bringing a collaborative spirit. They combine sharp technical skills and a meticulous eye for detail with a friendly, relationship-first approach, working seamlessly with clients, external counsel, and campaign teams to drive positive social change together.
What we're looking for
-
Excellent technical lawyer, ideally with one to three years post qualification experience as a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales (legal experience prior to training and qualification, e.g. as a paralegal, may also be taken into account), with experience in the conduct and processes of civil litigation, ideally including public law matters
-
Interest in social change and how the law can be used to deliver it, willingness to facilitate campaigning on legal cases and embrace GLP as a campaigning organisation
-
Strong team player with the ability to use initiative and problem solve, both when assisting senior lawyers and when conducting own matters
What we do
Good Law Project is a not-for-profit campaign organisation which uses the law to hold power to account and fight for a fairer, greener future. We take on the cases and campaigns where we’ll have the biggest impact, even when the odds are stacked against us. We had a primary role in overturning the prorogation of Parliament in 2019. We successfully challenged the Government’s operation of a fast track ‘VIP lane’ for awarding lucrative PPE contracts to those with political connections and our campaigning played a key role in the Met Police opening an investigation into Boris Johnson over the Partygate scandal. In July 2023, we forced the Government to accept that its flagship Net Zero strategy is unlawful and to develop a better plan. We get a positive outcome in more than two thirds of our cases – either a straightforward or a partial legal win. But whether we win or lose in court, we always fight to make positive change.

Role Purpose:
About Responsible Finance
Responsible Finance is the membership association for the UK’s Community Development Finance Institutions (CDFIs). CDFIs are community lenders, committed to delivering positive social impact, and offer fair and affordable finance to businesses, social enterprises and to people unable to access it elsewhere.
This is an exciting moment to be joining the CDFI sector. Responsible Finance and its members are focused on increasing access to fair and affordable finance for SMEs, social enterprises, people, places and communities that are underserved by mainstream finance. The Partnerships Manager will play a central role in turning that ambition into practical referral pathways, stronger partnerships and measurable growth in responsible lending.
Awareness of CDFIs remains low among many organisations that support SMEs and entrepreneurs. Many businesses that could benefit from CDFI finance are therefore not currently being directed to the sector. An increasing number seem to be turning to high interest lenders, which don’t always consider good customer outcomes.
We are therefore seeking an exceptional Partnerships Manager to develop and deliver a partnership outreach and creation strategy that raises awareness of CDFIs, increases referrals and signposting, and supports growth in CDFI SME lending. Our recent pilot with Lloyds Bank to refer declined SMEs to Responsible Finance, and our partnership with Grow London Local are just two examples.
Success in this role will mean building a prioritised partnership pipeline, converting relationships into active referral pathways, improving the quality and volume of referrals to CDFIs, and using data to learn what works.
Purpose of the Role
As Responsible Finance’s dedicated Partnerships Manager you will build strong relationships with banks, brokers and broker organisations, professional advisers, business organisations, government, local growth bodies and others to raise awareness, establish referral routes and strengthen onward pathways to finance readiness and business support.
Your work will be a driving force in delivering Responsible Finance’s ambition to unlock an additional £1bn of lending over the next five years.
Key Responsibilities:
- Leading the development of Responsible Finance’s partnership and stakeholder relationship strategy, working with our CDFI members to identify the organisations with the greatest potential to support growth in demand and referral pathways.
- Educating potential partners and referrers about what CDFIs are, the finance and support they provide, and of their role in local economic growth and community development.
- Increasing referrals and signposting to CDFIs centrally through Finding Finance and locally from organisations supporting businesses, improving access to finance and supporting lending growth.
- Managing the ongoing development and continuous improvement of the Finding Finance platform to ensure that it supports frictionless referrals and good customer outcomes – and that ongoing attribution data informs the ongoing targeting of partners.
- Developing routes for onward referrals to organisations that can support businesses with technical assistance, finance readiness and wider business support, creating a stronger future pipeline for CDFIs.
- Representing Responsible Finance at sector events, roundtables and stakeholder meetings, with a clear engagement plan, follow-up process and route for converting contacts into partnership opportunities.
This is a varied and dynamic role, working closely with our members and a range of external stakeholders. This job description is not exhaustive; it outlines the key tasks and responsibilities of the post which are subject to change. Any changes will be made in consultation with the post holder.
Role success measures and outcomes
- A prioritised partnership strategy and engagement plan agreed with Responsible Finance and informed by CDFI member needs.
- A live pipeline of target partners, with clear next actions, ownership, status and expected impact.
- New or improved referral pathways from priority partner segments, such as banks, brokers, accountants, local growth bodies, business support organisations and others.
- Improved quality, tracking and attribution of referrals through Finding Finance and local partner routes.
- Evidence of learning from pilots, including what drives referral quality, customer engagement, member value and responsible lending growth.
Skills and Experience:
Essential
We are looking for someone with experience of partnership development, stakeholder engagement or business development in a relevant environment. Experience of the finance ecosystem, SME support landscape or local economic development networks would be particularly valuable. Knowledge of CDFIs is highly desirable but not essential for the right candidate.
- Strong relationship-building skills. Must be comfortable working with stakeholders at a range of levels.
- Proven ability to build partnerships from prospecting through to implementation, including converting conversations into practical actions, pilots or agreements.
- Excellent communication and negotiation skills.
- Previous experience in a similar stakeholder / partner facing role.

Who we are
Social AF are experts in Social Media Moderation, supporting some of the UK’s most recognised charities to manage high-volume, high-risk online communities with care, consistency and expertise. Established in 2021, we work with some of the biggest names in the third sector.
Our reputation for delivering an excellent social media moderation service has helped the company grow at a rapid pace. Our services include:
-
Social media moderation

Facebook group moderation
-
Supporter experience
We work at the frontline of charity communications, helping organisations engage their audiences, protect their communities and respond to sensitive issues in real time.
About the role
We’re looking for experienced social media and communications professionals to join our freelance moderation team.
Our moderators support a range of charity partners, working across always-on activity as well as high-profile campaigns and appeals. You’ll act as the voice of each organisation — engaging with supporters, answering queries, and ensuring conversations are managed safely and effectively.
This role is well suited as a flexible, additional source of income. Most of our moderators are freelancers or consultants working alongside other roles.
Working pattern
Moderation takes place between 9am and 9pm, Monday to Sunday.
Rather than working in one continuous block, you’ll complete your hours in short check-ins across the day to maintain coverage and meet response time targets.
Each account is allocated a set number of ‘active moderation hours’ per day (e.g. 2-3 hours), which are spread across multiple sessions.
For example, 3 hours may be split into 5-6 check-ins throughout the day.
You must be able to:
-
Start moderation from 9am (or earlier)
-
Monitor activity throughout the day
-
Complete a final check before 9pm
-
Adhere to our sub-3-hour response time
Please note: In your first month, you will typically start on fewer accounts and hours (approx. 3 per day) while you get up to speed. Hours usually increase from month two onwards.
Key Responsibilities
-
Act as the voice of our charity partners, consistently applying their tone of voice and brand guidelines
-
Respond to comments, messages and queries in a timely, accurate and empathetic way
-
Maintain a response time of under three hours
-
Identify, manage and de-escalate negative or inappropriate content
-
Hide or remove content in line with moderation policies
-
Identify and escalate safeguarding concerns appropriately
-
Signpost users to relevant support services where needed
-
Encourage positive engagement and supporter action, including donations where appropriate
-
Work across a range of moderation tools e.g. Sprout Social, Meta Business Suite, Agorapulse, Brandwatch
-
Manage your workload independently while following clear processes and guidance
What We’re Looking For
Essential
-
Minimum 3 years’ professional communications experience, working in-house for a charity or non-profit
-
Proven experience moderating social media channels
-
Excellent written communication skills, with strong attention to detail
-
Ability to work independently and manage time effectively across multiple check-ins
-
Confidence in making judgement calls using guidance rather than scripts
-
Understanding of fundraising and how charities engage supporters
-
Ability to remain calm and professional in high-volume or sensitive situations
-
Availability to work 3-6 days per week, including at least one weekend day
-
Flexibility to adapt quickly if issues arise
Desirable
-
Experience using moderation and social media management tools e.g. Sprout Social, Meta, Agorapulse, Brandwatch
