This role serves as a strategic lead in the fight against authoritarianism and the rise of the far-right. You will navigate interventions of high political sensitivity, tackling systemic issues such as the defence of protest rights, the protection of marginalised communities, and the pushback against state overreach. By bridging the gap between technical legal strategy and digital mobilisation, you will design impactful campaigns that challenge democratic backsliding, drive vital donations, and defend fundamental civil liberties through rigorous project management and compelling storytelling.
What we're looking for
- Campaigning & Journalism: Experience as a strategic advocate or campaigner, with a track record of identifying cases that highlight consumer detriment
- Thematic Expertise: Experience navigating the political and legal sensitivities of campaigns related to Reform action, protest rights, Palestine and challenging the rise of the far right
- Project Management: Experience managing multi-faceted projects, ideally coordinating between different specialisms (e.g., legal, tech, and comms)
- Digital Mobilisation: Experience helping to develop and implement digital campaign strategies that have raised income, grown lists, or secured change
- Political & Economic Awareness: A keen understanding of the political landscape, particularly focused on party politics, protest and civil rights
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
- See our website for more about what we do

At Dementia UK, we make sure families affected by dementia don’t face it alone. Through our specialist Admiral Nurses, we provide expert, compassionate support when it’s needed most. As we continue to grow our services and national influence, our technology capability must evolve with us.
We are looking for a Deputy Director of Technology and Digital Transformation to lead the next phase of that evolution.

You will identify where automation, AI and smarter system design can drive measurable productivity gains, reduce manual dependency and strengthen data-driven decision-making.

You will balance operational rigour with forward-looking digital capability, ensuring we remain proportionate, responsible and competitive in a rapidly evolving landscape.
We are seeking a senior technology leader who has successfully balanced operational stability with digital transformation in a complex organisation. You will bring experience in developing and delivering technology strategy, modernising legacy environments and driving productivity through smarter use of systems, automation and responsible AI.
You will have strong expertise in infrastructure, cyber security and data protection, alongside commercial awareness and experience managing budgets and suppliers. Just as importantly, you will be able to influence senior stakeholders, develop technical talent and translate complex ideas into practical action.
Most importantly, you will see technology as a force multiplier for mission impact. If you want to shape how a growing national charity uses digital capability to strengthen its reach and effectiveness, we would love to hear from you.

With excellent communication skills, you adapt your approach for different audiences, ensuring your message resonates. While juggling multiple tasks, you remain calm and organised, making confident decisions in high-pressure situations.
Your strong analytical skills enable you to monitor and evaluate effectively, implementing meaningful improvements.
Having worked in emotionally charged environments, you understand the importance of resilience and have excellent “bounce-back ability.” Your emotional intelligence and empathy will shine as you support your team and the public, creating a compassionate and effective workplace.
