Policy manager jobs in birmingham

Join us at a pivotal moment as we transform 100 years of sight loss support for the digital age. You'll be the reassuring first voice for people navigating technology challenges, helping them discover independence they didn't know was possible.

This isn't your typical customer service role. At BWBF, you'll support people with sight loss as they explore  technology, and connect with the digital world. Every call matters - from helping someone hear their first audiobook to guiding them through video-calling their grandchildren.

Working with our distributed team across the UK, you'll handle enquiries with empathy and efficiency, knowing that your patience might be the difference between someone giving up on technology or discovering new freedom. You'll collaborate with our Service Delivery team to ensure every person gets the right support at the right time.

We need someone who combines natural warmth with practical problem-solving, who finds satisfaction in small victories, and who understands that behind every technical query is a person seeking independence. 

In return, you'll gain skills in assistive technology, work flexibly with a supportive team, and go home knowing you've genuinely improved lives. This is meaningful work with tangible impact.

• Supporting organisational development to embed trauma-informed values in practice, culture, policy, and leadership, working with our Head of People and Culture.
• Developing reflective practice approach to support managers to staff and volunteer resilience particularly across services. This could include a ‘train the trainer’ approach.
• Auditing current practices and recommend systems and processes to support trauma-informed service delivery.
• Developing and delivering capacity-building approaches and resources for kinship carers to help them identify and respond to trauma and mental health needs in children. 
• Working collaboratively with subject matter experts to develop self-guided training, toolkits, and multimedia resources.
• Providing and leading expert input into the trauma-informed design and delivery of Kinship Connected, Kinship Reach, Advice Service and other 1-to-1 support programmes.
• Guiding frontline delivery staff to adopt trauma-informed practice, including the use of strengths-based approaches and flexible, family-led planning.
• Representing Kinship at external events and meetings to raise awareness of the services and to influence other organisations, policy and practice.  
• Full list of responsibilities in the the job pack below.

Essential knowledge, abilities, skills and experience includes:

• A qualified trauma-informed practitioner with significant experience in delivering or developing trauma-informed services.  
• Experience working with kinship carers or in adoption and fostering sector.   
• Proven experience applying the principles of trauma-informed care across organisations, preferably in children and family services. 
• Experience in designing and delivering training and coaching for professionals and/or families on trauma and therapeutic approaches.
