Do you have experience working with under-served communities and leading impactful outreach projects? Are you passionate about improving access to support for families of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)?

Design and develop pilot advice services that are tailored to the needs of under-served communities, using findings from IPSEA’s research
-
Build and maintain strong relationships with community groups, charities and service providers to co-produce accessible services

Collaborate with IPSEA’s advice, legal and policy teams to address the barriers these communities face in accessing SEND legal advice
-
Contribute to and share outreach materials, training resources and toolkits to support families of under-served communities and empower local advocates
-
Plan and lead workshops, focus groups and community events to raise awareness, gather feedback and enhance service delivery
-
Monitor and report on project outcomes and impact, providing regular updates to IPSEA staff and stakeholders
You can work remotely or from IPSEA’s office in Takeley, with frequent travel required for essential meetings and community engagement.
If you share our commitment to protecting, promoting, and upholding the rights of children and young people with SEND, and would like to use your skills to improve access to vital advice and support, we would love to hear from you.
