Unpaid Carers in England and Wales alone contribute around £162bn to the economy through their role as unpaid carers. They look after a loved one who needs care, without doing this as a paid job, and devote many hours of their time every week to the person they care for.
If you understand how crucial unpaid carers are to the community and are able to articulate their case to engage employers to support them in work - this is the job for you.
We are looking for a confident, passionate, articulate person who can communicate in a clear and compelling way to engage Bradford employers in:
- Identifying carers within their workforce so that they can support the valuable role they play in society
- Encouraging carers to work for them as their needs will be understood
- Encouraging other employers to join a consortium of like-minded employers across Bradford to become ‘Carer Confident Employers’
If you think you have the skills necessary to do this role we would welcome hearing from you.
In turn we will support you by helping with desk top research to engage with employers we had historical relationships with and with introductions to external partner organisations who will actively work with you to support this role and this agenda.
Please email your CV and a covering letter stating why you think you are perfect for this role.

Ready to lead bold, place-based change in Bradford?
This is your chance to shape one of the UK’s most ambitious community-powered initiatives—Act Locally.
We’re looking for a dynamic leader who thrives at the intersection of strategy and grassroots action. You’ll connect schools, services, and communities to co-create solutions that improve life chances for children and families.
This role requires someone who thrives in fast-paced, evolving environments and brings a ‘start-up’ mindset to working in a small but ambitious team. You’ll be equally comfortable facilitating strategic conversations with senior leaders and rolling up your sleeves to support grassroots initiatives in local neighbourhoods.
Why Join Us?
Because you want to be part of something bigger. We are a collective impact charity driving long-term change across Bradford by focusing on what matters most—children’s education, health, and future opportunities.
This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of a growing charity at the heart of one of the UK’s most ambitious place-based partnerships. You’ll bring your skills and personality into a close-knit team with big ambitions and a powerful network of partners.
As we move to scale-up, this role offers the chance to influence strategy, build deep relationships across sectors, and be part of a story that’s bigger than any single programme. If you're energised by complexity, creativity, and community, we’d love to hear from you.
