This is likely to be at least weekly and includes occasional evening and weekend events.
Salary: £100,488 per annum
Contract: Full-time, permanent

Shape the future of one of the world's most influential human rights movements.
At a time when human rights are increasingly contested, Amnesty International UK has a clear ambition: to build public support for human rights, strengthen people-powered movements and create lasting change.
To achieve that ambition, the organisation is seeking an outstanding leader to join its Senior Leadership Team as Director of Campaigns and Communications.
One of the most significant leadership opportunities in the sector today, the postholder will report directly to the Chief Executive and will lead a large directorate spanning campaigns, communications, public engagement, media, policy, research and political relations, helping to shape how one of the world's most recognised movements engages the public, mobilises supporters, influences decision makers and drives social change.

The Opportunity
Human rights organisations face a fundamental challenge.
Facts alone are not enough.
In an increasingly complex and polarised world, organisations must connect evidence with emotion, inspire people to act, build movements and create the public mandate required for lasting political and social change.
As Director of Campaigns and Communications, you will help define how Amnesty International UK meets that challenge. You will shape the organisation's public voice, influence its strategic direction and lead work that reaches millions of people across the UK.

You will join at a pivotal moment as AIUK seeks to:

• Build broader public support for human rights
• Grow and diversify its movement
• Reach and engage new generations of supporters
• Increase its influence in public and political debate
• Strengthen the integration between campaigning, communications, activism and movement building
• Create bold, creative and audience-focused approaches to change

About the Role
As a member of the SLT, you will contribute to the overall leadership of AIUK and play a central role in shaping organisational strategy and culture.
You will lead a substantial and highly talented directorate, bringing together expertise across:

• Campaigns and political relations
• Communications and public engagement
• Media, PR and artist relations
• Policy and research
• Nations and regions

You will create greater alignment across these functions, ensuring they operate as a coherent whole in pursuit of AIUK's strategic priorities.
You will also represent AIUK externally, building relationships across the Amnesty movement, civil society, media, politics and public life, and helping to position AIUK as a leading voice in shaping the future of human rights in the UK.

Who We Are Looking For
We are seeking an experienced and values-driven leader with the credibility, judgement and vision to operate at executive level.
You may currently be:

• A Director of Campaigns, Communications, Public Engagement or Advocacy.
• An Executive Director leading large-scale influencing or movement building functions.
• A senior sector leader with responsibility for public mobilisation, communications, campaigning or political influence.

You will be adept at operating strategically, leading through complexity and building alignment across diverse stakeholders.
You will bring:

• Significant leadership experience within a complex organisation
• A track record of delivering ambitious campaigns, communications or public engagement strategies at scale
• Experience leading large multidisciplinary teams
• The ability to build organisational alignment around a clear strategic vision
• Strong political and external awareness
• A sophisticated understanding of how public narratives shape social and political change
• An inclusive and collaborative leadership style
• A commitment to anti-racist practice, equity and human rights

Leadership at AIUK
This role requires both conviction and humility.
You will bring fresh thinking, challenge established assumptions and help AIUK adapt to a changing environment. At the same time, you will understand how to build trust, bring people with you and create conditions for others to succeed.
We are looking for a leader who can combine strategic clarity with empathy, collaboration and courage.
Someone who is comfortable making difficult decisions, navigating ambiguity and leading through influence rather than hierarchy.

Why Join AIUK?
Few leadership roles offer this combination of influence, visibility and purpose.
You will have the opportunity to:

• Shape the future direction of one of the world's most recognised human rights organisations
• Influence public and political debate on some of the defining issues of our time
• Lead work that strengthens democratic participation and social justice
• Help build a broader, more diverse and more powerful movement for human rights
• Work alongside exceptional colleagues across the UK and the global Amnesty movement
• Leave a lasting legacy on the future of human rights advocacy in the UK

This is a rare opportunity to lead at scale, shape public narratives and help define the next chapter of Amnesty International UK.
If you believe in the power of people to create change, and have the leadership experience to help make that change happen, we would welcome a conversation.

1. Overview :

Amna, meaning safety in Arabic, is a refugee-centred organisation that supports mental health and community-led healing. We equip displaced communities with the tools to heal, build resilience, and restore a sense of belonging. 

Rooted in evidence and lived experience, our global work empowers frontline organisations to deliver trauma- and identity-informed care. Through safe, culturally grounded spaces, we help break cycles of trauma and support long-term recovery. 

Amna is currently undertaking a broader organisational strengthening exercise focused on improving operational resilience, financial sustainability, governance, compliance, and readiness for future growth. This consultancy forms part of that wider organisational development agenda and will inform future decisions on systems, processes, structures and investment priorities. 

2. Objective 

Amna's finance function is now fully resourced, creating the right moment to review and strengthen the organisation's financial systems and processes. This consultancy is commissioned to establish the added value of a review of Amna's finance ecosystem, and to identify practical, costed solutions to support the organisation's next stage of growth. 

The objective of this consultancy is to support Amna in diagnosing its current financial ecosystem, whether its financial systems, processes, controls, reporting structures, governance arrangements and operating model are fit for purpose for its current and anticipated scale. Based on this diagnosis and mapping out relevant, costed solutions for a future finance system upgrade and/or procurement,linking Amna's core business activities and income-generating activities with donor compliance requirements and UK charity compliance obligations and strengthen organisational decision-making, grant management, forecasting and organisational sustainability over the next 3–5 years. 

2. Scope of Work 

The consultancy should not assume that technology is the preferred solution. Recommendations should distinguish between issues that can be addressed through changes in processes, governance, roles and responsibilities, staff capacity or systems, and should prioritise solutions according to value for money, organisational readiness and expected impact 

Diagnosis (Consultant-led) 

• SWOT-style analysis across Finance, SLT, and Programmes 

• Assess organisational reliance on manual processes and identify key operational bottlenecks and map where time, confidence, or control is being lost 

• Review alignment and map data flows across Finance, Programmes, Development, MEL, HR, and Operations.

Identify opportunities for automation, integration and systemisation across finance, procurement, grant management and reporting processes.

Where relevant, this should address visibility into specific finance workflows such as grants tracking/pipeline and contract management for outsourced finance services. 

• Risk matrix and pros/cons per proposed solution and recommend governance and control improvements required to support future growth. 

• Prioritisation against agreed criteria (relevance, cost, efficiency, effectiveness) as a timeline-bound plan 

• Provide revised Organizational wide financial health KPIs for the next 3–5 years, with calculations, methods of measurement and reporting frequency.

•  Propose practical, light-touch recommendations to reduce friction in procurement-related steps that touch finance (e.g. purchase requests, approvals) proportionate to effort and scoped as an input to the finance ecosystem, not a full procurement redesign 

 Present distinct solution categories (e.g. low/moderate/significant investment options), each with an indicative cost range, so Amna can decide what fits best. To be finalised only once diagnosis is complete. 

 3. Deliverables

• Finance ecosystem maturity assessment including (strengths, weaknesses, critical gaps/bottlenecks, benchmark against comparable organizations). A diagnostic report validating and finalising the objectives, success indicators, and non-negotiables (Max 15 pages) .

• A 3-year Financial Systems Improvement Roadmap, including future state operating model options (i.e maintain current scale, moderate growth, significant growth) and suggest required resources/systems/risks/costs per scenario.

Scenario-based, costed solution options, each with a pros/cons analysis. 

• Identify where technology or automation can simplify existing finance processes and reduce manual effort. 

• Proposed finance KPIs for the next 3–5 years, with supporting calculations. 

• A final report and presentation to the Senior Leadership Team and Board (via the Treasurer). 

4. Roles and Responsibilities

6. Contract length

The contract shall be effective from September 2026 and shall continue until delivery of the final report and presentation, expected in October–November 2026, unless terminated or extended earlier by mutual written agreement of both parties.

About Alzheimer’s Research UK: Alzheimer's Research UK is the UK's leading dementia research charity. Our mission is to accelerate progress towards a cure.  Today 1 in 2 people will be impacted by dementia, either through caring for a loved one, developing it themselves or tragically both. But there is hope. 

About the role

The Academy runs some of the most valued grant schemes and development programmes in UK biomedical and health research. Springboard Awards help researchers establish their independence. Starter Grants keep talented clinicians in research alongside their clinical work. Leadership programmes like FLIER develop people who can work across academia, healthcare and industry to tackle real-world challenges, and alongside these sit opportunities to spend time working in industry, the NHS or government. Moving between sectors should be a normal part of a medical research career (it is not yet), and much of our work is built with that belief: a more connected and mobile workforce is better able to turn discovery into benefit. Between them, these schemes change the course of people's careers, and the research they enable reaches patients across the UK and beyond.

This role leads that portfolio. The heart of the job is excellent delivery: schemes that are well designed and well run, and that make a real difference to the people they reach. You will work closely with the Fellowship, whose expertise and generosity run through the whole portfolio, and you will make sure the schemes serve the whole of the medical sciences community (across the devolved nations and the regions, in industry as much as academia), not just those already inside the most established institutions. And science is global, so this work is too: the portfolio draws on evidence and partnerships from around the world, and the mentoring and networks around the people we support reach well beyond the UK.

Today much of the portfolio's focus is research talent and careers. That will always be a substantial part of the portfolio, but over time we plan to expand it further. That expansion could go in several directions, and what matters is that we are taking an evidence-based approach to ensure that our efforts are responding to what the medical sciences sector needs. Whatever we launch next, the same principles apply; good design, sound funding, proper governance and solid evaluation, with our effort concentrated where it delivers the most impact. So, the job is twofold: run today's portfolio brilliantly and build the future portfolio. It is a role where you can see your work land in people's lives, with real scope to shape what comes next. And none of it stands alone: what we learn from the people we fund sharpens our policy voice, the community our programmes build strengthens our engagement and public trust work, and insight flows back the other way to shape what we design next.

As a member of the Senior Leadership Team, you will share in the leadership of the Academy as a whole, working closely with the other directors: the Chief Operating Officer and the Directors of Policy, Communications and Engagement, and Translation and Enterprise. The relationship with Translation and Enterprise matters especially. That team will shape new partnerships and initiatives that your team is best placed to deliver, so the two of you will work in very close partnership.

What we are looking for

These are the six areas we will explore with candidates. They match the six parts of the role above, so you can read straight across — and your supporting statement can follow the same structure if that helps. We do not expect anyone to arrive with every part fully formed, but the strongest candidates will be convincing across most of them.

1. Excellent delivery

A strong track record of running grant schemes or of significant programmatic delivery. Much of this is operational: holding an annual cycle to time and budget, catching problems early and getting stuck things moving again. It is also about making sure the portfolio adds up to a coherent whole rather than a collection of separate schemes, with the governance discipline — sound contracts, clean compliance, rigorous oversight — that sits behind delivery done well.

2. Building partnerships and negotiating well

A track record of building and sustaining partnerships with funders, delivery organisations and industry, and the skill and pace to turn them into agreements where appropriate. We will want to hear how you have handled a complex negotiation and brought it to a close. The Chief Operating Officer leads the Academy’s income strategy, so we will also explore how you develop partners in concert with colleagues.

3. Range and credibility across the community

This role runs from Fellows (some of the most eminent scientists in the country) to researchers at the very start of their careers, and from government and funders to industry partners. We are looking for someone with the range to work well across all of them, and the credibility to be taken seriously at every level. We will also explore how you have widened access and drawn talent in from beyond the usual places.

4. A focus on impact

A commitment to looking at what difference the portfolio you lead makes. We are looking for someone who treats evaluation as a source of learning and uses what it shows to decide what the Academy should do next, keeping sight of the people and patients the work is for.

5. Leading and empowering people

A brilliant leader of people: someone who gets the best from a talented team by giving them space and ownership, backing them with real support and coaching, and building a culture where people thrive and develop.

6. Collective leadership

As a member of the Senior Leadership Team, you would share responsibility for the Academy as a whole, not only your own directorate. We want someone who takes that seriously, brings challenge where it is needed, backs colleagues when it counts, and helps make the Academy a brilliant place to work.

Benefits

We offer a competitive and evolving benefits package designed to support your wellbeing, development and work–life balance, including:

• Competitive salary and pension
• 26 days’ annual leave, plus bank holidays
• Option to buy or sell annual leave 
• Additional paid closure between Christmas and New Year
• Hybrid and flexible working
• Health, wellbeing and employee support programmes
• Cycle-to-work scheme and everyday benefits
• Structured learning and development
• Enhanced maternity, adoption and paternity leave
• Enhanced occupational sick pay

For further information and to apply, please visit our website via the apply button.

Closing date for completed applications: Midday on Monday 17 August 2026.

First interviews will be held 25-26 August 2026 with the CEO, Roz Campion, and the COO, James Lawrence, and focused on two competencies – leadership and delivery.

Second interviews will be held on 1 September 2026 with an external panel.
