We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
We’re looking for a strategically-minded leader to take forward our work in schools, including managing our new ‘Creating Supportive Environments’ project over the next three years. With knowledge and experience of the secondary school context in particular, the Programme Manager will lead on the development, delivery, and evaluation of new interventions in schools to sit alongside our ongoing delivery of the Rainbow Flag Award in the East of England.
