Job description

Our client, Parkinson's UK, is looking for an enthusiastic and well organised public affairs professional, with a good knowledge of how policy change works in Westminster and Whitehall. You’ll support their work to raise the profile of Parkinson’s UK, increase awareness of Parkinson’s and build strong relationships with Parliamentarians and civil servants. Supporting the policy advisers, you’ll keep a close eye on developments in Parliament and support colleagues in the devolved nations in their Parliamentary work.

Role (What you'll do)

  • Monitor activity in Parliament that relates to Parkinson’s and share information with colleagues
  • Draft briefings and materials to support their work to build effective relationships with key parliamentarians, influencers and civil servants
  • Provide support to the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Parkinson’s
  • Support colleagues in devolved nations to ensure their public affairs work is aligned and supportive across the UK
  • Support work to involve people with lived experience in the charity’s public affairs activities
  • Produce inspiring communications about the organisation’s parliamentary activities that encourage their audiences to continue supporting their work
  • Build a strong network with allies and partners in other charities and external groups.

Candidate (What you'll bring)

  • Experience of working in Westminster or Whitehall or in the devolved nations’ assemblies
  • Good interpersonal skills and the ability to provide administrative support
  • Experience in political analysis and of working in a political environment and a good understanding of policy issues in health and care, welfare, work, transport or the disability arena
  • Ability to network and build supportive relationships at all levels, including with volunteers
  • Experience of using creative ways of communicating messages to Parliamentarians and civil servants  
  • Research, analytical and information gathering skills
  • Ability to maintain political impartiality
  • Ability to prioritise own workload effectively and support others in meeting challenging deadlines.

Please note that this is not an entry-level role. We can only consider candidates who clearly demonstrate experience working within a public affairs/political environment. For example, you might be working for an MP, or within a charity/NGO policy/influencing team or within a public affairs agency.

Due to timing, we are ideally looking for candidates with no longer than one month's notice.
