Job description

The British Dyslexia Association is a national charity representing the voice of people with dyslexia. We work to influence government, shift public understanding and drive change in education, employment, health and wider society.

We’re looking for a part‑time Public Affairs & Policy Manager to lead our policy and parliamentary engagement work. This is a varied and rewarding role where you’ll help shape our influencing strategy, strengthen our relationships across Westminster and Whitehall, and ensure lived experience sits at the heart of our policy positions.

Although the role is broad and varied, you won’t be expected to manage everything all at the same time. A clear set of priorities will be agreed with the senior leadership team.

 Key responsibilities:

  • Lead our parliamentary engagement strategy and political influencing.
  • Build relationships with MPs, Peers, Ministers, advisers and key civil servants.
  • Monitor parliamentary activity, policy developments and emerging issues.
  • Prepare policy briefings, consultation responses and evidence‑based reports.
  • Support our presence at political events, conferences and roundtables.
  • Represent the BDA in meetings and sector forums.
  • Work with colleagues, researchers and people with lived experience to shape strong, accessible policy positions.

What we’re looking for:

  • Experience in public affairs, parliamentary engagement or policy influencing.
  • Good understanding of UK Parliamentary and government processes.
  • Proven ability to shape policy or achieve change within public bodies.
  • Excellent communication skills and confidence building relationships at senior levels.
  • Strong organisation, political awareness and a collaborative approach.
  • Passion for improving outcomes for dyslexic people.

Flexible & family‑friendly working

We are a family‑friendly employer and welcome different working patterns, including the option to spread hours across the week. We encourage candidates to tell us what works for them.

Why join us? 

This is your chance to make a real difference by shaping policy, influencing decision-makers, and helping create a society where dyslexic people can thrive. You’ll work in a collaborative, supportive environment with colleagues who share your passion for positive change. 

Please view the job description for full details about the role, responsibilities, and person specification before applying. 

Closing date: 23 March 2026. We reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications is received, so we encourage you to apply early. 

Use of AI in applications 
We value the unique experience and perspective each candidate brings. While we understand that AI tools can be helpful in drafting applications, they can sometimes result in responses that feel generic or impersonal. This makes it harder for us to get a true sense of you. 

To help your application stand out, we encourage you to write your responses in your own words. If you do use AI tools to support your writing, please treat the generated content as a starting point rather than a final answer. Make sure your application genuinely reflects your experience and voice.
