RightsInfo is an award-winning digital human rights charity that builds knowledge and support for human rights in the UK by producing engaging, accessible and beautifully-presented online human rights content.

In the UK, human rights are often controversial and often misunderstood.

Brexit will create multiple challenges for those who value the protection of human rights in the UK.

RightsInfo is fighting back against media misrepresentation of human rights. We want people to understand why human rights matter to them and people like them. We tell the positive stories of human rights with news stories, features, infographics, videos, documentaries - anything which gets people inspired and engaged over human rights. Our work now reaches tens of thousands of people every week. In just a few years, RightsInfo has gone from a start-up project to a leading charity with full-time staff, a talented team of volunteers, significant multi-year grants, an experienced board of trustees and an exciting future.

The successful candidate will have strong experience leading high-performing teams in the charity sector and a good understanding of the UK human rights landscape. You will be a natural leader who has robust experience delivering against strategies, cultivating a portfolio of new major donors and achieving funding targets, managing grants, measuring impact, working positively with trustees, setting policies and processes, engaging thoughtfully with complex or controversial issues, representing your organisation publicly and inspiring teams.

RightsInfo welcome applications from dynamic and passionate senior leaders looking to step into their first CEO role.
