We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

- Collaborate with internal stakeholders across Retail, Property and Knowledge teams to ensure statutory testing, documentation and guidance are in place and accessible.
About you
To be successful, it is important that you have:
- A strong understanding of charity retail operations and the compliance landscape within a retail environment.
- Experience of health and safety legislation and broader retail compliance requirements.
- Proven ability to write clear, practical policies, procedures and guidance.
- Excellent influencing, facilitation and communication skills, with the confidence to coach and support others to achieve compliance.

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.
