• Skill in mapping power, crafting public narrative, running mass actions and negotiating with decision‑makers.

• Confidence to coach others, facilitate tough conversations and celebrate big, public victories.

The culture you’ll love

We care, we hold each other accountable and back bold ideas with action. We repay out‑of‑hours effort with TOIL, cherish diverse lived experience and never lose sight of the people behind the work.
