This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
Every day, neurodivergent people in the legal profession face misunderstanding, outdated assumptions, and well-meaning but misguided "support." We're building something different - a charity that gets the science right, speaks with authority, and creates change based on evidence rather than good intentions.
We need someone who understands what neurodiversity really is - professionally, academically, maybe personally, to be our compass and our credibility.
What we're looking for
We need a neurodiversity specialist who can be our knowledge foundation - someone whose expertise ensures everything we do is grounded in current understanding and best practice.
Your background might include:
-
Professional expertise in neurodivergence through psychology, neuroscience, education, occupational therapy, or related fields
-
Deep knowledge of current research and evidence base around neurodivergence
-
Understanding of the real challenges neurodivergent people face in professional environments
-
The ability to translate complex concepts into language that lawyers (and everyone else) can understand
-
Genuine commitment to making the legal profession work better for neurodivergent people
What would be brilliant (but not essential):
-
Hands-on experience working with or advocating for neurodivergent individuals
-
Academic qualifications or research experience in relevant areas
-
Knowledge of workplace adjustments and inclusive employment practices
-
Understanding of career progression challenges in professional settings
-
Experience in education, training, or public awareness work
-
Personal lived experience of neurodivergence (valued but not required)
What you'll be doing
This isn't about lending your name to our letterhead. You'll be actively shaping everything we put out into the world:
Being our quality control:
-
Reviewing all our educational materials, resources, and communications to ensure they're factually accurate
-
Keeping us current with evolving research and best practices
-
Making sure our language is appropriate, respectful, and up-to-date
-
Helping us spot and counter misinformation before it takes hold
Guiding our strategy:
-
Providing specialist input on how we approach neurodiversity promotion in the legal profession
-
Advising on the most effective methods for raising genuine awareness and understanding
-
Supporting the development of educational programs that actually work
-
Identifying where we can make the biggest impact
Building our credibility:
-
Helping establish partnerships with respected neurodiversity organisations, researchers, and experts
-
Supporting our reputation as a source that legal professionals can trust
-
Advising on collaboration opportunities with academic institutions and healthcare professionals
Supporting our people:
-
Providing guidance to our neurodivergent volunteers in their advocacy work
-
Ensuring volunteer-led initiatives are built on solid understanding
-
Advising on accessible and inclusive team management practices
The need-to-know
Time commitment: Around 4-8 hours per month - one monthly trustee meeting plus the specialist input that makes the difference, and the occasional extra task that crops up.
Term: We're looking for a minimum 2-year commitment initially, which then becomes a rolling 1-year term subject to the constitutional requirements.
When we meet: We will be setting our meeting dates at the start of the organisation's year (October 2025) so everyone can plan ahead.
Next steps:
-
Applications close: 5 September 2025 at 17:00
-
Interview dates: TBC - dependent on application numbers
-
Next board meeting: TBC
Why this role matters
The legal profession is finally starting to talk about neurodiversity. But too often, the conversation is happening without the depth of understanding it deserves. Myths persist, outdated language gets used, and initiatives are built on shaky foundations.
Your expertise doesn't just add value to our work - it protects the people we're trying to help from being let down by another well-meaning but uninformed initiative.
What We Offer in Return
-
Real influence: Your knowledge directly shapes our approach and ensures our impact is positive
-
Professional recognition: Work with a charity that's building a reputation for getting it right
-
Meaningful connections: Network with other professionals who share your commitment to evidence-based change
-
Flexibility: We’re a team of working professionals and always work around professional commitments
-
Support: Join a board that values expertise and provides genuine collaboration
-
Development opportunities: Expand your governance experience and charity sector knowledge
-
Recognition: References, recommendations, and opportunities to speak on topics you care about
-
Expenses covered: We reimburse reasonable costs related to your trustee work
Whether your expertise comes from clinical practice, academic research, educational settings, or lived experience combined with professional knowledge, if you care about ensuring neurodiversity initiatives are built on solid foundations, we want to hear from you.
Application deadline: 5 September 2025 at 17:00
We're committed to making reasonable adjustments throughout our recruitment process and welcome applications from all backgrounds. If you need any support with your application, please let us know.
