Lead the strategy. Influence the law. Change the future for animals.

The League Against Cruel Sports is the UK’s leading charity working to create a kinder society where animals are never harmed in the name of ‘sport’. From securing the landmark Hunting Act to exposing cruelty through investigations and championing stronger protections, we are driven by compassion and powered by evidence.

We are now seeking a Director of Advocacy — a strategic, inspiring leader who can steer our campaigns, public affairs and intelligence work to deliver meaningful and lasting change for animals. The focus of the role is mission delivery - ending cruel ‘sports’.

About the role

This is a high-profile leadership position at the heart of the organisation, you will oversee the strategy for political change (with a particular focus on England and Wales).

You will:

  • Provide strategic leadership for our campaigns, public affairs and intelligence functions (England & Wales).
  • Lead organisational planning to ensure our advocacy is aligned, evidence-led and delivers maximum impact.
  • Oversee the development of compelling campaigns to influence public opinion and drive legislative change.
  • Ensure operational robustness, risk management and governance across all advocacy activities.
  • Play a hands-on role developing our strategy for engagement with different press and broadcast media platforms and contributing to our capacity for delivering this work, supporting our Senior Communications Officer.
  • Inspire and develop a talented team, line managing the Heads of Campaigns, Intelligence and Public Affairs.
  • Work closely with colleagues across fundraising, marketing and senior leadership to ensure a unified approach.
  • Support the CEO on strategic messaging, while they remain the organisation’s primary spokesperson.

This role is predominantly internally focused shaping the strategy, strengthening systems, and empowering teams with the evidence and direction needed to create effective advocacy. It is also an exceptional opportunity for someone aspiring to future executive leadership.

About you

We’re looking for someone who brings:

  • Leadership experience in advocacy, campaigns, media or public affairs (ideally within the charity or campaigning sector).
  • A deep understanding of political and legislative processes in England & Wales.
  • Ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and drive cross-organisational planning.
  • Strong strategic judgement with a track record of influencing policy or social change.
  • Experience managing operational risk in complex or high-profile advocacy environments.
  • Collaborative leadership style and the ability to inspire, motivate and mentor others.
  • A passion for animal welfare and a commitment to creating meaningful, positive change.

Experience in animal welfare, environmental or social justice sectors — as well as existing political contacts — are welcome advantages.

Why join us?

At the League, you’ll be part of a courageous, committed and supportive organisation working every day to end animal cruelty. You’ll shape national debate, influence policy at the highest levels, and help secure a future where animals are protected and respected.

We understand the importance of a healthy work-life balance, enjoy flexible working arrangements, including options for compressed hours and remote work from day one. With 28 days (pro-rata) of annual leave, in addition to the public holidays, and a generous employer contribution of eight percent towards your pension scheme, we prioritise your well-being. Additionally, our benefits package includes discounts on shopping, electronics, hospitality and leisure. Find out more about working at the League.
