The Advocacy Academy is an activist youth movement. We serve as the political home for grassroots youth organising and the catalyst for collective action. The lives of the young people we work alongside have been directly shaped by living in an unjust world, and we exist to turn their anger into action.

Young people are often the catalysts for major social change, from the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement, to the Soweto Uprising mobilising young people to resist the apartheid regime's education policies, to the Sunrise Movement redrawing the electoral map across America, and more recently encampments and protests across the world protesting the genocide in Palestine. How successfully they achieve real and lasting change depends on whether they are organised and whether they have the right strategy and tactics to be effective. 

We want youth organising to be enshrined in the UK for generations to come, and for young people to have tangible political power to influence national policy. That’s why we have launched two national coalitions, one around climate, and the other around gender. Each will train organisations across the country to become youth organisers and work together to bring 100 young people together to identify the strategy and tactics needed to achieve change. These young leaders will organise others and work collectively to build a campaign which shakes the status quo.

We are looking for a Senior Lead Gender Coalition who believes in this vision and is capable of building the leadership in youth workers and young people alike that enables them to turn the resources they have into the power they need to make the change they want. It will be your job to help grow this programme, organise our partners, create magic and spark the hope for something more! If this excites you, then please apply.

Before you skim the job description, please remember you don’t have to tick all the boxes for each role to apply. Charity experience is not a requirement! We all experience a bit of imposter syndrome, including the staff here at The Advocacy Academy. Let’s name it for what it is - a manifestation of the oppression many of us face on a day to day. If this role pulls you and you believe you could make a difference, then apply anyway or reach out to us to discuss more!

About the role

Our exciting three year strategy sets out our ambitious goals to drive impact at scale for victim-survivors. We are now looking for an exceptional candidate to lead some of our financial services relationships and consultancy work and support SEA in its mission to raise awareness of economic abuse and transform responses to it within the financial services sector.

Working closely with colleagues across SEA, you will foster and maintain relationships across the financial services sector, seeking opportunities to generate income for the charity and supporting our Head of Financial Services to deliver lasting change and impact.

Together we can transform frontline financial services, in practice, product and process, and save lives.

About you

At SEA we put the lived experience of victim-survivors at the heart of all that we do, including our work with financial services firms. You will be a subject matter expert on customer vulnerability and financial services firms’ regulatory requirements, as well as having a thorough understanding of industry rules and good practice. You will combine this with experience of working with vulnerable customers, including victim-survivors and bring expertise on economic abuse to ensure this is embedded within financial services’ firms’ responses.

About SEA

We are the only UK charity dedicated to raising awareness of economic abuse and  transforming responses to it. We work to save lives and stop economic abuse forever.

Our vision is a world in which all women and girls achieve economic equality and can live their lives free of abuse and exploitation. Not only surviving but thriving.

Our mission is to raise awareness of economic abuse and transform responses to it.

To achieve this, we must ensure that the policies and practices of financial services firms, domestic abuse support services, public services and government reflect the needs of all victim-survivors of economic abuse.

We are  committed to centring victim-survivors in all that we do and broadening our understanding of the needs of survivors, particularly those who are marginalised within society. We work alongside the Experts by Experience - a group of victim-survivors whose voices and experiences shape our work.

Our primary focus is on influencing the women’s, public and financial services sectors, to create a model for improved support for victim-survivors of economic abuse, calling on government to facilitate these changes and work with them to improve their systems and practice.

What we offer

• 25 days annual leave plus Statutory Bank Holidays
• Home working (UK based)
• Flexible working 
• 5% Employer Pension Contribution 
• 5 Wellbeing Days
• Reflective practice
• Employee Assistance Programme 
• Enhanced sick pay, family leave and carer’s leave

To apply

Please apply via our website

Applications open from 9 April and close at 11.59pm on 7 May 2026. Interviews will take place virtually, week beginning 1 June.

Direct applications only – no agencies please.

Surviving Economic Abuse (SEA) is committed to developing an inclusive team which reflects the diversity of the communities we support. Our culture celebrates diverse voices, and we particularly encourage applications from Black and minoritised applicants and disabled applicants who are under-represented at SEA.

SEA is a Disability Confident Committed, and Kinship Friendly Employer.

About us

We work with organisations that play a crucial role in improving society. Our clients have been at the forefront of policy changes that improve school food, conserve the ocean, and scale interventions that protect children in war.

The hard work of getting these kind of policy changes through can be dry and technical: to convince an government official that one policy solution is better than another can require a lot of debate, evidence production, and thinking about implementation.

That is where our clients are strong. Where we can help them – and where you will be helping them – is by ensuring that the background noise around the policy issue is productive to them achieving that goal.

The job

We’re looking for a social media hot shot. You’ll have an instinctive sense of what will (and won’t) work on various platforms. You’ll have that instinct because you’ve done it all before, by creating content for an organisation or campaign (or for yourself!) We want weird, atypical, challenging; someone who will push the boat out.

We are not looking for the stereotypical and generic social media content that you see most places publishing. And we are not looking for someone to put a prompt into AI and publish the output.

You’ll be using your content creation skills on campaigns to change legislation, on organisational social media accounts to make them stand out from the ‘blob’, and quite possibly on Cast from Clay’s own channels.

The kinds of people that thrive at Cast from Clay are intellectually curious, are open to challenge, and care about the details. Most importantly, they prize clarity of thought. In today’s world we are overwhelmed with information and content. Knowing what they think and being able to explain why is, to our minds, one of the most important skills of today.

It’s worth saying that we don’t care what your political views are, as long as you have some–the team has a mix of views.

What we are looking for 

You will have:

• A strong understanding of how each social platform works. You will be familiar with audience engagement, community management, and platform algorithms.
• Experience in using tools to track, analyse, and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) to determine content effectiveness and inform future strategies.
• Skills to develop and publish high-quality, engaging content (text, image, video) across socials, often utilising scheduling platforms. The content has to be tailored to distinct brand voices.
• A deep understanding of what social media current trends are.

If you feel like you don’t meet 100% of the criteria, please don’t let that stop you. If you love the sound of this role and have a strong foundation in social media, we would love to hear from you.

Note: This is an immediate hire. We are reviewing applications on a rolling basis, so please don't wait to apply.

Why Cast from Clay?

The kinds of people that thrive at Cast from Clay are intellectually curious, are open to challenge, and care about the details. Most importantly, they prize clarity of thought. In today’s world we are overwhelmed with information and content. Knowing what they think and being able to explain why is, to our minds, one of the most important skills of today.

It’s worth saying that we don’t care what your political views are, as long as you have some–the team has a mix of views.

What we offer

We offer a competitive benefits package for all our positions, including enhanced parental leave, sabbaticals, and training budgets.

• Office: we work from our offices in Vauxhall on Tuesdays and Thursdays. You’re welcome to use the office more frequently than that if you wish.
• Home office allowance: we’ll make a £150 contribution towards kitting out your home workspace.
• Flexible working: tell us how you work best and we’ll do what we can to make it happen – including if you want to spend time working from abroad.
• Monthly team socials: we like spending time together so every few weeks we come up with ideas for things to do together. That’s included board games over pizza, ice skating, movie nights, playing a VR game together and going on llama safari at our local city farm.
• Training: you’ll get up to £500 annual training budget to spend on your professional development. 
• Pension: we will pay 5% of your salary, matching the 5% you pay, to make a total of 10% annual contributions.
• Holidays: we offer 25 days holiday per year, plus bank holidays, and we close the office over Christmas.

Interested?

If this sounds like you, please apply by sending us: 

1. Links to the 5 pieces of social media content you’ve created that you are proudest of.
2. Your CV (no more than 2 pages).

We expect to receive a lot of applications for this role. To help yours stand out, please give us a couple of sentences in your email as to why you want to work at Cast from Clay. 

It’s also worth saying that we want to hear your genuine voice, so please don’t use AI to write this. Not least because there will be lots of people who will use AI, and it’s always amusing for us when a bunch of very different people all write the same thing…!

Things to note

• You need to have permission to work in the U.K. already – we cannot sponsor visas for this role.
• We are an equal opportunities employer and we are determined to ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of gender, age, class, disability, religion, belief, sexual orientation, marital status, or race, or is disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justifiable.
