Ensure the team is actively discussing and capturing insights about CSC audiences and the effectiveness of our interventions through observation, as well as formal and informal feedback.
-
Ensure our venues are kept clean, tidy, and low-risk, with a prompt and effective response to any unforeseen circumstances.
-
Ensure the team completes and archives risk assessments, and that any incidents are promptly resolved, handled effectively and considerately, and properly reported.
-
Support your team in understanding and managing their capacity during both busy and quieter periods, and encourage individuals to assist the Product and Community Development teams when they have availability.
-
Ensure your team is well-versed in how to promote CSC’s products, services, and charitable mission — and that they do so actively and confidently.
-
Stay up to date with STEM news and best-in-class science communication practices across the sector.
-
Foster a positive team and organisational culture that is open, communicative, considerate, and respectful of others.

What they say about Medical Justice;
“What Medical Justice did was absolutely remarkable. They sent two specialists to see me in Harmondsworth and they did the most amazingly thorough job documenting all my scars. Then I got my medico-legal report which was over 40 pages long. They did thorough, professional work – there is nothing more that they could have done and ultimately this work got me out of detention.” – former detained person and Medical Justice client
