ABOUT BITE BACK 2030

Be part of the creative and agile team behind Bite Back 2030’s exceptional teenage activists. Join us as our Campaigns Manager and contribute to a 10-year journey to help make the food system healthier and fairer and achieve our goal of halving childhood obesity by 2030.

Young people today are up against a flood of unhealthy food, pouring out of our highstreets, supermarkets and school canteens. As a result processed foods, snacks, soft drinks and takeaways, are playing too big a role in their lives.  Junk food is cheap and easy to access at a time when 3.3m young people under the age of 18 have overweight or obesity. Rates among our poorest are double those of our wealthiest young people.

Covid-19 has only further served to highlight the injustices in the food system and sharpen the focus on the impact obesity has on health outcomes.  There is a political moment now to accelerate change.

We believe young people are the key voice in driving this change in our food system.  It is a really exciting time to join the organisation - we are still a start-up but with ambitious plans for growth and impact.  Co-founded by Jamie Oliver and launched in October 2019, our Youth Board have already had campaign successes on a  range of issues including Free School Meals, a 9pm watershed on television junk food advertising and post-Brexit trade. 

We are now seeking a creative, self-motivated individual to join as Campaigns Manager reporting to the Head of Campaigns. You will collaborate across  our small and agile team and work closely with our young activists to develop campaigns that capture public imagination and secure impactful policy change.  We are committed to increasing the diversity of our team and especially encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds to apply. 

ABOUT THE ROLE

• Strategy development: Translate audience insights and policy context into campaign messaging, actions and timings.

• Campaign planning: Identify key actions for different audiences to take that will influence change. Work with the mobilisation team to build a journey that will motivate these audiences to participate and continuously build engagement.

• Stakeholder relations: Draft letters and briefing notes to policymakers, Government and NGO peers.

• Youth engagement: Work with the members of our Youth Board to develop their creative ideas and incorporate them into the campaign plan. Actively engage our youth supporters with our campaign planning and ensure all campaigns are youth-led.

• Campaign copywriting: Draft petitions, open letters and other tentpole campaign copy that must reflect a nuanced understanding of the policy landscape.

• Content support: Serve as a resource of audience and campaign messaging expertise for the mobilisation team as they develop campaign content. Lead on the development of central pieces of campaign content, working in coordination with the mobilisation and communications teams.

• Creative thinking: Work with mobilisation and communications teams to translate policy needs/objectives into publicly engaging content/stunts/activations. 

• Data: Apply data and interim campaign results to inform new campaigns and the evolution of existing campaigns.

• Campaign project management: Track team roles and responsibilities throughout campaign development and execution. Ensure progress and new tasks are kept up to date in the project management software system.

We are looking for someone with:

• A passion for young people’s health, nutrition and social justice

• A can-do attitude and great sense of humor

• Excellent writing skills

• Knowledge of the political landscape and understanding of how Westminster works

• Experience building campaigns to influence decision makers

• The ability to work flexibly and collaboratively across a small, dynamic team and Youth Board

• Interest in what motivates the public, particularly young people, to take action for a cause

We're looking for a Movement Building and Campaigns Lead to develop our programme to grow purpose-driven finance, building the financial system of the future - one that puts people and planet first. 

About the Lab

The Finance Innovation Lab is a UK charity working to transform the financial system for people and planet.

Dysfunctions in the financial system lie at the root of many of today’s challenges, from climate change and economic crises, to poverty, marginalisation, and inequality. We believe it doesn’t have to be this way. We work for deep, lasting change to the financial system to make it democratic, sustainable, just and resilient. We create this change by building the power of a community of systems-changemakers and developing ambitious initiatives that transform the financial system for people and planet.

This role will head our programme to build the financial system of the future, today. 

About the role

To truly transform the financial system, we need financial organisations that put social and environmental purpose at the centre of their mission, not profit. You will develop our campaign to rapidly scale up the exciting ecosystem of organisations that do this already so that they become the mainstream. You will work with our dynamic community of purpose-driven finance leaders to overcome regulatory and policy barriers, change public perceptions, and help them work together to change the financial system for good. 

As Movement Building and Campaigns Lead you will build on strong foundations, a dynamic community and great collaborative relationships, and will inject energy, new ideas and drive to create meaningful change.

In this role you will:

• develop the Lab’s programme to grow purpose-driven finance to help build the financial system of the future, that puts people and planet first. You will work with leaders in the field and allies to grow the scale and impact of financial organisations that have a social and environmental mission, supported by purpose-driven models of governance, ownership, leadership and culture. 

• devise an effective strategy for systems change, working to remove key barriers to growth of purpose-driven finance. This could include raising public awareness, tackling the power of the mainstream status quo, and changing government policies. 

Some key activities in this role are to:

• drive the Lab’s strategy to grow purpose-driven finance, including developing our campaigns to change public perceptions, remove regulatory barriers, and tilt the playing field towards purpose. 

• build alliances and coalitions with leaders in the field, experts and allies.

• grow your programme, including identifying funding targets, developing new initiatives, tracking the impact of your work, and recruiting new members of staff.

• support the Lab’s other exciting programmes, including helping design a Fellowship programme to support the leadership and organisational development of purpose-driven financial organisations. 

This is a new role, and we are open to discussion about what the best job title should be.

Working with us

The Lab aims to embody the kind of organisations we think should be the norm - fully human, collaborative and compassionate. Working at the Lab will feel like a mix of work, play and vocation. You'll build relationships with colleagues you respect and admire and who feel the same way about you. You'll feel part of a broader community of inspiring change-makers.

We are committed to: 

• flexible working arrangements - time and location (see also below). This is a full-time role, but we are open to applications from those looking to work from 0.6 FTE to 1.0 FTE (21-35 hours per week), or job-sharing applications.

• investing in personal growth - everyone has a £1,000 p/a training budget, an average of 1 day a month to complete learning, plus up to eight days per summer to complete a specific learning project.

You will also get a 5% pension contribution and 25 days holiday (+ public holidays).

A bit more on location: This role is UK-based but does not need to be London-based - but you should expect to travel to our office in London 1-2 times a month if needed.

The team will be working remotely until at least July due to Covid-19 restrictions. Longer-term, we're expecting to spend at least 50% of our time working from home - but that can flex depending on the needs of each role and individual.

We can only accept applications from those with the right to work in the UK.

Creativity, passion and presence. LCC’s new Senior Campaigner will demonstrate all this and more. With razor sharp campaigning skills and boundless energy, they will help us win political action to make London’s streets safe enough for people of all ages and abilities to cycle. This a brilliant opportunity for an experienced and versatile campaigner motivated by LCC’s goal of a zero carbon, healthier, happier London, where cycling is the norm.

The London Cycling Campaign has been successful in winning high quality cycling infrastructure, low traffic neighbourhoods and making London’s roads safer for all. But there is still a long way to go. At the same time, the climate emergency and impact of Covid-19 mean it is even more urgent that transport in London becomes greener and healthier.

We need to go further, faster. That’s where our new Senior Campaigner comes in. As the lynchpin of our Campaigns Team you will play a central role in creating and delivering both centrally-led and localised, grassroots campaigning that will accelerate and deepen our impact. Because it’s the right thing to do, but also because it will help deliver our vision for London, you will also help our organisation become more representative of London’s diversity.

Key Responsibilities:

• Co-ordinate the day-to-day work of LCC’s 8 person campaigns team
• Keep a general overview of LCC’s campaigning (both centrally and by LCC’s local groups)
• Respond to media and public speaking requests, fielding them directly or lining up other staff
• Set proactive and reactive campaign tactics in collaboration with other staff
• Maintain an open dialogue with LCC’s Marketing & Membership Team on campaigns-related communications
• Manage 2-3 staff whose prime focus is supporting LCC’s group network, taking a hands-on role with this work from time to time
• Manage the general campaigns budget
• Support the CEO in creating campaign strategies
• Collaborate with the Fundraising and Partnerships team on funding proposals, delivery and reporting
• Write campaign reports and opinion pieces, and lead/contribute to the creation of campaigns collateral
• Be the staff lead for reporting to the Campaigns & Active Membership subcommittee of the LCC Board
• Build and maintain key stakeholder relationships with external organisations and representatives

LCC is committed to becoming a more diverse and inclusive organisation, with new plans in place to help realise this. We welcome applications from all parts of the community, particularly from under-represented groups. This currently includes people with disabilities and from Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups.

This is a full time role with a salary of £36,238 per annum. LCC makes an 8% pension contribution. Annual leave is 28 days. We operate the Cycle to Work Scheme and offer season ticket loans.
