RESULTS seek to make change through a mix of grassroots, parliamentary and policy advocacy, creating the public and political will to end poverty.

RESULTS UK believes the building blocks of the end of poverty are health, education, and economic opportunities – things that all people, wherever they live, need and have a right to. Within these three areas, we prioritise specific issues on which we can have most influence to achieve progress.

The heart of the policy team’s role is to provide a high-level of policy evidence and messaging that underpin all of RESULTS work. The policy team also goes beyond the production of this evidence. It delivers policy as highly-focussed advocacy messaging to the stakeholders who require the most detailed and nuanced levels of technical briefing. These audiences include civil servants, key development agencies and civil society organisations, but also the parliamentarians and members of our grassroots network who are the strongest champions for our work.

The position of Policy Advocacy Coordinator will provide crucial support to the Policy Advocacy Team. The post will be ideally suited for an individual with some work experience at the beginning of a career in international development, particularly in policy, research or public affairs.

We are looking for someone who will be proactive, efficient and flexible in supporting our policy advocacy work. Having a can-do attitude that includes the more administrative aspects of the role is essential. This post will provide good opportunities for developing project management and advocacy skills; an understanding of key international development issues; research and writing for advocacy; and experience of working with UK policymakers, parliamentarians and civil society.

As a member of the Policy Team, the post-holder will be working closely with members of the Parliamentary and Grassroots Teams in order to deliver on RESULTS overarching objectives: being generous with the sharing of knowledge, advocacy expertise, and contacts while working in a collaborative environment is essential.

- You think British criminal justice is broken

- You want to raise the profile of miscarriages of justice

- You love campaigning and persuasively changing minds

- You have a passion for using stories to engage decision-makers and influence better policy

- You understand the complex needs of people with involvement in the criminal justice system

Sound like you?

We’re looking for an exceptional and highly motivated communications and policy professional. If you want to have a direct impact on raising the profile of miscarriages of justice and fixing our broken criminal justice system, then we want to hear from you. In this role you’ll manage strategic communications projects, engaging key audiences and seeking platforms for our staff, our prisoner clients and their families.

We’re looking for someone who’s led impactful communications campaigns aimed at a broad range of audiences. You’ll have proven experience of delivering timely and effective communications and engagement strategies that have enabled organisations to achieve their aims. You’ll have a passion for storytelling and an ability to work alongside those with lived experience of the cirminal justice system. You’ll understand the complex needs of people with involvement in the justice system, and with experiences of trauma or poverty. You’ll have worked in a complex organisation and understand how to deliver excellent content against audience needs. You’ll also demonstrate exceptional judgement and excellent stakeholder management.

Who are we?

APPEAL is a law charity that fights miscarriages of justice and demands reform. Our small team of lawyers, advocates and investigators take on criminal appeals on behalf of prisoners who cannot afford legal representation.

1. We investigate: battling for access to records and exhibits, arranging new forensic testing, conducting street-level investigation, and systematically analysing case documentation, digging deep to find the fresh evidence that proves a conviction is unsafe or a sentence is unfair.
2. We litigate: bringing cases to the Criminal Cases Review Commission, the Administrative Court and the Court of Appeal.
3. We advocate: working with former prisoners, campaigners, students, legal professionals, policy makers and other stakeholders to ensure our justice system learns from its mistakes.

We are committed to winning justice for individuals and their families, but also usingcases as impact litigation to push for systemic change to make our criminal justice system more accurate, fair and accountable. This involves not just legal work, but also implementation of a robust communications and policy strategy, as the reforms needed must come from parliamentary and policy interventions as well as from judicial precedent.

Work Specification

• You will lead APPEAL’s justice policy reform efforts and manage the day to day operation of our communications strategy.
• You will leverage APPEAL’s casework, research and campaigning around our Initiative to end the use of imprisonment for debt, that falls under the work of the Women’s Justice Initiative (WJI). The WJI primarily aims to use criminal appeals as impact litigation for imprisoned women who have experienced severe and multiple disadvantage.
• You will lead on policy reform efforts around APPEAL’s Open Justice goals, including advocating for better access to police and prosecution material, reform of the disclosure system, access to trial transcripts and improving the effectiveness of the Criminal Cases Review Commission.
• You will manage APPEAL’s external communications, including drafting press releases, liaising with journalists, managing the website and APPEAL’s social media accounts and writing our annual impact report.
• You will also support our Bound by Injustice group, working with the family members of our imprisoned clients and clients themselves to empower them as advocates for reform.
• The job may expand to include managing the day-to-day operation of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Miscarriages of Justice for which APPEAL is currently the secretariat.

Background

Medact supports the health community to work together towards a world in which everyone can truly achieve and exercise their human right to health. We cover some of the most pressing national and global threats to health and wellbeing including climate change; human rights abuses; conflict and violence; and rising inequality. We’re member-led, and our membership spans a range of people who work in health including nurses, doctors, midwives, and clinical researchers.

Climate change is a public health emergency, damaging the health and lives of millions of people around the world.  Many of the communities which are suffering most from the impacts of Covid-19 are also those whose health and wellbeing is hardest hit by environmental damage. 

The Coronavirus pandemic is forcing Governments to rethink national and global economics. As the UK Government moves to develop a recovery package, it’s vital the progressive movement comes together to ensure a socially-just recovery which centres human and planetary health.  Health workers have a uniquely powerful voice, and a strong will to make a difference - there’s an exciting opportunity to bring large numbers of people together to campaign in ways which will have real impact.

Medact believes the health community has a key role to play in driving transformative social change - come work with us to help make that a reality.

About the role

The Climate & Health Campaigner leads Medact’s programme to support health workers to campaign for just and proportionate action on climate change, working closely with our Climate & Health Organiser. In spite of - or perhaps because of - the Coronavirus pandemic, there is huge energy among the health community on climate justice issues. The role includes holding Medact’s key knowledge base on climate justice and health and requires building strong relationships across the health community, from establishment institutions to frontline workers. 

About you

This isn’t an entry-level role, but you don’t need to have had a job in an NGO before or be a professional campaigner to be right for it. You might have worked with your local community or other group to campaign on a climate justice issue you care deeply about.  You’ll be a strategic thinker with a strong understanding of power, and know how to work with others to create pressure for change. You need to be a great communicator, able to build trusting relationships with frontline health workers, academics, partner organisations, and community groups alike - and you’ll have an eye for a good media story and know how to get it out into the world.

About the Youth Endowment Fund

The Youth Endowment Fund is a bold new attempt to put early intervention at the heart of efforts to tackle youth offending.

In recent years violent crime has risen significantly. Homicides, assaults, robberies and offences involving weapons have all seen sustained growth. We have also seen large increases in violent crime involving children and young people. This is a tragedy. Every child captured in these numbers is an important member of our community and society has a duty to protect them.

The Youth Endowment Fund is a charity with a £200m endowment and a mission that matters. Founded by youth charity Impetus and its partners, the Early Intervention Foundation and the Social Investment Business, we exist to prevent children and young people from getting caught up in violent crime. We do this by finding the very best ways to prevent youth violence, funding great initiatives and working to scale them up and spread great ideas.

Research and evidence are at the heart of our charity’s mission. We want to be the go-to place for evidence on the lives of children affected by youth crime and violence, its causes, and what works to prevent it. The research and youth understanding team are responsible for commissioning and producing research to inform the YEF’s understanding of what works to reduce violent youth crime and to help us better understand the lives of young people vulnerable to youth violence, and what this means for the YEF’s work.
