This is a part-time position working 21 hours per week (days/times can be flexible and discussed with the team at interview).

About us

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

About the role

As Legal Operations Specialist, you will play a key role in strengthening how the Legal Team operates, enabling it to deliver high-quality, timely and impactful legal support across Save the Children UK.

Working closely with the General Counsel and Head of Legal, you will design and implement operational frameworks, processes and tools, use data and technology to improve efficiency, and support effective management of external legal resources. By doing so, you will help ensure the legal function is well-positioned to support SCUK's strategy and put the safety and best interests of children at the heart of decision-making.

In this role, you will:

• Develop and implement strategies, processes and playbooks to improve Legal Team workflows, efficiency and service delivery.

• Support the management of external legal counsel, including spend oversight, performance monitoring and pro bono strategy development.
• Act as an operational liaison between the Legal Team, Procurement and wider SCUK teams, supporting planning, prioritisation and continuous improvement.

About you

You'll bring a passion for innovation and efficiency, with proven success in playing a key role in enabling legal teams to operate strategically, agilely and with impact.

To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Proven experience in legal operations, legal project management or a related field, with a strong understanding of in-house legal functions.
• Experience with in-house legal technology platforms and in implementing process improvements, automation and other technology solutions.

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.

• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day. You can read more about our benefits here.

This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately, once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. 

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. This is the reason why we are all here.

About Black Thrive Global

We exist to change the odds stacked against Black people by embedding race equity into systemic change so that thriving is not the exception but the norm.

Black Thrive Global evolved from the work of the Black Thrive Lambeth Partnership, which was established in 2016 to address the inequalities that negatively impact the mental health and wellbeing of Black people. Black people’s cumulative exposure to negative experiences and poor outcomes are not unique to Lambeth and Black Thrive Global was founded in 2020 to address the detrimental outcomes for Black people of African and Caribbean descent wherever they may be located.

Black Thrive Lambeth – Communities Workstream Overview

The Communities Workstream sits at the heart of Black Thrive Lambeth’s model and is the primary mechanism through which the organisation remains deeply connected to Black residents across the borough. Covering communities from Waterloo to Central Hill Estate, the workstream focuses on Black adults and their wellbeing, ensuring that lived experience directly informs strategy, systems change, and service design.

This workstream is responsible for building, maintaining, and nurturing relationships at grassroots level—with residents, community leaders, and Black-led organisations doing vital work across Lambeth. It acts as a bridge between community insight and institutional decision-making, ensuring that Black voices are not only heard but embedded within policy and practice.

The Communities Workstream plays a critical role in:

· Creating and holding trusted community spaces for dialogue, healing, and collective action

· Supporting community-led initiatives and amplifying grassroots leadership

· Facilitating co-production between residents and statutory partners

· Translating community priorities into practical recommendations for systems change

The workstream also underpins Black Thrive Lambeth’s strong relationships with Lambeth Council and other statutory partners, providing a credible, community-informed route for collaboration and influence. Through this role, the Communities Workstream ensures Black Thrive Lambeth remains accountable to the people it exists to serve, while driving long-term improvements in wellbeing, equity, and outcomes for Black communities in Lambeth.
