Why Access Social Care Exists 

Every day millions of older and disabled people are denied the social care they need. Most local authorities can’t meet the growing demand for care, and none are confident they can meet their legal duties in the future. This affects all of us - we will all need care at some point in our lives. 

We all have a right to hold public bodies to account, but most of us cannot afford lawyers so rely on legal aid. The 92% drop in legal aid cases since 2010 means that we have nowhere to turn. Without access to justice, our rights do not exist.

What we do 

Access Social Care (‘ASC’) provides legal advice and information for people with social care needs, helping achieve a better quality of life. We work with communities to increase knowledge of the law and our rights. We highlight the gap left by cuts to Legal Aid and provide advice for those who can’t afford it. 

Our network of lawyers and caseworkers provide access to justice when things go wrong. We collaborate with social services whilst ensuring legal obligations are met. We are working towards a future where social care is adequately funded, and we all get the support we need. 

We provide rights awareness training to front line managers, and legal advice and casework support to families and individuals. As well as providing access to justice, our aim is to drive system level change through evidence-led influencing and strategic casework.

This is an exciting time to join ASC. We have a new strategy. We are dedicated to the people who need our help, and we care deeply about our team. We think that work should be an exciting and satisfying place to be.

We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

You will design and deliver high-impact influencing and change strategies, build and maintain strong relationships with Parliament and key stakeholders, and ensure our advocacy drives meaningful policy outcomes for children.

Working collaboratively across the organisation, you will support colleagues, children, and priority audiences to engage confidently and effectively with decision makers. This role is ideal for someone with strong experience in international development and humanitarian aid, and a deep understanding of international cooperation and foreign policy, who is motivated to translate global evidence and child-centred priorities into impactful political influence in the UK.

• Deliver high-impact advocacy by drafting compelling briefings and enabling children, families, and colleagues to engage directly with decision makers.
• Strengthen public affairs capability across Save the Children by coaching colleagues and working collaboratively across teams and regions.

About you

To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Strong understanding of UK political systems, processes, and trends.
• Solid policy expertise in international development, international cooperation, and humanitarian issues.
• Proven ability to analyse political insight, manage political risk, and use this to drive effective influencing.

• 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.

We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". 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.
