About Reprieve

Reprieve works with the most disenfranchised people in society. Our aim is simple: to consign the death penalty and abuses carried out in the name of “counter-terrorism” or “national security” to history, drawing public and political attention to these past harms with a view to preventing them from occurring again.

In our view, you can best judge a society by how it treats prisoners, criminal defendants, and the far-flung targets of an ever-changing counter-terror policy. To us, the rule of law means little if we selectively apply it to people we agree with. It is for all of us. Liberty is always eroded at the margins.

Reprieve’s staff is made up of courageous and committed human rights defenders. Founded in 1999, we provide free legal and investigative support to people facing the death penalty and those victimised by states’ abusive counter-terror policies – rendition, torture, arbitrary detention and extrajudicial killing.

We fight our clients’ cases in courts around the world; investigate their mistreatment; and advocate on their behalf, encouraging public and political debate of human rights issues.

Reprieve’s main office is in Aldgate, London, UK. Reprieve also supports full-time Fellows, who work as lawyers, investigators and campaigners in the countries in which we work. We work closely with a number of partner organisations in jurisdictions all over the world, who provide access to clients, expertise, knowledge and guidance on specific issues or regions. We work in cooperation with relevant government officials, individual lawyers and human rights defenders, as well as individual, corporate and foundation funders to further the cause of our shared goals.

Reprieve works in close partnership with its independent sibling organisation Reprieve US. This collaboration is mutually beneficial to both Reprieve and Reprieve US as it enables each organisation to work more effectively and take advantage of the strategic locations to increase the impact of our work.

Reprieve is an equal opportunity employer and we particularly welcome applicants from Black and minority ethnic communities, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and those with disabilities. Reprieve is committed to fighting racism and advancing racial justice, both in our work and within Reprieve.

The Legal Officer will also help advance investigations on selected cases, coordinating record collection, feeding into investigation plans and supporting other investigative work. 

In addition to working on UK legal cases, the role will encompass work on Reprieve’s cross-cutting strategic United Nations engagement and international litigation. This will involve monitoring for relevant opportunities to shape international law and working on international legal submissions, particularly before international human rights complaints mechanisms and international tribunals.

Key work hours will be delivered flexibly to meet the needs of the Young People and include regular evenings and weekends in order to fit around college and/or work schedules for Young People who are engaged in Education, Employment or Training.

Our approach centres on safe, exploratory methods that aim to understand behaviour and experiences often rooted in trauma, abuse, and neglect. We deliver intensive therapeutic programs within educational and community settings, empowering young people to confront the underlying causes of their emotional distress and work toward healing.

To create lasting, sustainable change, we work to establish trauma-informed environments around young people by equipping parents, caregivers, educators, and other professionals with the tools they need to offer effective, supportive care. Currently, our services are active in London and Manchester.

Over the past two consecutive financial years, we have raised approximately £1 million – primarily through trusts and foundations, corporate donors, and individual supporters.

The Role: We are looking for someone with a strong track record in fundraising and grant management, who is particularly motivated to join Khulisa because of a deep commitment to our mission – supporting the wellbeing and mental health of young people.

The Vivensa Foundation, formerly The Dunhill Medical Trust, is the only UK charitable funder focused entirely on supporting the remarkable research and radical social innovation needed for ageing well. As the steward of a substantial endowment of c£175 million, we provide an annual grants budget of £5-6 million and have ring-fenced a further £5 million for social investment purposes. This means we are uniquely positioned to act as a catalyst for systems change at the intersection of health, care, research, and community. As we move into a new strategic phase, we are looking for a visionary and collaborative leader to help us deepen our impact and extend our influence for lasting change.

As Chief Executive, you will lead the delivery and iterative development of Vivensa’s strategy, working closely with the Board and a small, expert team. You will provide clear and values-led leadership, ensuring our resources, partnerships and profile are aligned for maximum social impact. This is a rare opportunity to lead a foundation with the independence and capital to take risks, shape thinking, and convene diverse actors around a common purpose. You will, with the Board of Trustees, own the strategy and oversee governance, finance and operations, while also playing an active role in representing Vivensa externally and facilitating cross-sector collaboration.

We are seeking a confident and reflective leader with experience of driving change in complex or multi-sector environments. You will bring strong strategic and financial acumen, the ability to inspire and empower a small team, and credibility across sectors such as research, health, government, investment, philanthropy or civil society. Equally important is your commitment to collaboration, systems thinking, and inclusive leadership – alongside a passion for the potential of research, innovation and community action to shape a better future for ageing.
