Ref 7139

Save the Children UK is seeking a strategic and partnership-oriented leader to join us as the Humanitarian Mobilisation and Partnerships Senior Lead within our Humanitarian Leadership Academy (HLA). This new role is central to how we connect people, organisations and expertise across the humanitarian sector—overseeing our global consultancy roster, strengthening equitable partnerships, and ensuring that local and national actors can access the leadership and learning support they need before, during, and after crises.

Working across teams, regions and functions, you will lead efforts to embed collective leadership, locally led action, and sustainable delivery models into the HLA's work. You'll play a key role in shaping how humanitarian expertise is mobilised—through networks, surge mechanisms and partnerships—and how that work aligns with shifting donor priorities and long-term capacity needs. As we deliver on our 2025–2027 strategy, this is a unique opportunity to influence real change in how humanitarian leadership is developed, supported and resourced across the sector.

 About Us 

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm.  When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave.  We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach. 

About the Team:

The Humanitarian Leadership Academy's (HLA's) mission is to inspire a movement for locally led humanitarian action.  Our purpose is to work with local actors and organisations to provide tailored resilience and crisis response support that addresses their specific needs, focusing on nurturing and empowering local leaders, driving collective action through our networks, thought leadership & research and amplifying local expertise, creating opportunities for change and collaboration.   

About the role

The Humanitarian Mobilisation and Partnerships Senior Lead plays a key role in strengthening collaboration, mobilising expertise, and driving systemic change in line with the HLA Strategy 2025-2027. This role ensures that the HLA's initiatives are rooted in equitable partnerships, locally led action, and collective leadership efforts rather than isolated interventions.

The role will provide strategic oversight, coordination, and innovation to ensure that the HLA's work in leadership, learning and partnerships is aligned with global and regional humanitarian priorities. It will also focus on expanding access to leadership and learning opportunities, ensuring local actors and organisations are at the centre of crisis preparedness, response, and recovery.

With increasing funding pressures and shifting donor priorities, the way humanitarian expertise is mobilised needs to evolve. This role will help shape how leadership, learning and partnerships connect, ensuring that humanitarian action is driven by those closest to the crisis and that resources are used effectively to strengthen long-term capacity.

In this role, you will:  

• Provide strategic oversight for the HLA's consultancy roster, ensuring it remains a dynamic and responsive mechanism for supporting humanitarian leadership and crisis response.

• Strengthen engagement with local, regional, and international partners, ensuring that collaboration extends beyond funding relationships and actively contributes to collective leadership efforts.

• Ensure that expertise is effectively mobilised, working with networks, rosters and partner organisations to improve accessibility to humanitarian learning and leadership opportunities.

• Support the development of equitable partnerships, ensuring that the HLA's approach to working with local actors reinforces their agency and decision-making power, rather than perpetuating extractive models of engagement.

• Contribute to funding sustainability, identifying opportunities to strengthen cost-recovery models, diversify revenue streams, and align the HLA's work with emerging donor priorities.

• Advocate for a shift in how leadership expertise is mobilised in humanitarian settings, working with partners and sector leaders to influence policy, funding models, and capacity development approaches.

About you  

We are looking for someone with the following experience, competencies and skills 

• Direct experience of contributing to the mobilisation of humanitarian expertise, such as managing or delivering through rosters, surge mechanisms, or regional leadership networks, ideally in ways that connected people to timely leadership, learning, or crisis response support.

• A strong track record of developing and maintaining partnerships with national and local actors, where collaboration is structured, accountable, and grounded in shared goals, not just relationship management but delivering through partnerships in practice.

• Ability to think strategically and systemically, including identifying where partnerships, mobilisation efforts, or resourcing models can shift leadership closer to crisis-affected contexts.

• Demonstrated experience aligning partnership or mobilisation work with organisational strategies and funding opportunities, including contributing to proposals, working within donor frameworks, and supporting sustainable delivery models.

• Confidence working across diverse geographies and cultures, with experience building respectful relationships that centre the knowledge, agency and priorities of local actors.

• Experience working across multiple teams or departments, contributing to cross-functional delivery and helping build joined-up ways of working across strategy, programmes, operations, and business development functions.

• Good working knowledge of leadership and capacity strengthening in humanitarian settings, with specific insight into what's needed to support locally led leadership in crisis contexts.

• A visible commitment to equity and inclusion, including examples of how you have advocated for underrepresented groups.

• Strong communication and influencing skills, including experience preparing external materials (e.g. for partners, donors, or networks), contributing to strategic conversations, and sharing learning.

• Experience of contributing to financial management, including helping shape project budgets, aligning delivery to cost recovery models, and ensuring work is delivered responsibly within resource constraints.

Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

Ways of Working:

The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter).  This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building. 

Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense. 

Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.

Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: 

Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". 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 are looking for a suitably qualified person to join our team as HR Officer to promote good HR practice throughout the District and its constituent churches and Circuits. The HR Officer will provide expert advice for line managers and provide support for all HR matters, enabling all lay staff to flourish in their roles in addition to meeting statutory and Methodist requirements. This role will include working closely with the District Secretary and other members of the District Lay Employment Committee to develop policies and ensure these are implemented across the District.

You will provide support in all aspects of the work of the department, including recruitment, onboarding and induction, and the updating of our HR records. You will also have a co-ordinating role in the organisation of international travel. You will need to have some previous experience of working in an HR department, though training will also be given to support this experience.

There are currently two UK office locations, HHC’s main office at Wilton near Salisbury, and a second smaller base in London.
 
About you:
 
To be successful as our HR Assistant, you will have a positive, can-do approach, good organisational skills, and a strong attention to detail. You will also have high quality administrative skills and the ability to develop great working relationships with others.

Orphanages don’t protect children, they harm them. Put simply: the last thing an orphanage can provide is the first thing a child needs - someone to love them.
 
Science shows what we all know, that the bond between a child and their family is vital for their development. Decades of evidence proves that orphanages harm children, subjecting them to high levels of abuse, as well as extreme neglect.

Senior Copywriting Officer
£34,300 - £37,300 per year
Permanent, full-time (37.5 hours per week)
Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office 

What the job involves
We’re looking for a brilliant and proactive Senior Copywriting Officer to lead the creation of compelling written content that engages our audiences, strengthens our brand voice, and helps raise vital funds to support men with, or at risk of, prostate cancer.

As our in-house copywriting expert, you’ll help shape messaging and creative direction for products and campaigns and play a key role in shaping our tone of voice across all communication. You’ll review and edit content, support colleagues to build their confidence and capability, and ensure everything we publish is clear, consistent and impactful.

You’ll take the lead on developing content and writing for key long-form products – including our supporter magazine, impact report and direct marketing appeals – transforming briefs into emotionally resonant, insight-led copy that drives supporter action across both print and digital channels.

What we want from you
We’re looking for someone with expert copywriting skills, a sharp eye for detail, and a supportive, solutions-focused mindset. You’ll be passionate about using words to make a difference, and versatile in writing for a wide range of audiences and formats.

You’ll bring a strong track record in crafting persuasive, emotionally compelling long-form copy, particularly for fundraising and direct marketing, along with excellent editing skills and a deep understanding of tone of voice and audience needs.

Bringing a forward-thinking approach, you’re confident using AI to support creativity and curious about how it can strengthen human-led writing processes and scale impact.

You’ll be calm under pressure and able to manage multiple priorities with confidence and clarity. A natural communicator, you’ll collaborate effectively with colleagues across the organisation, explain complex ideas simply, and be comfortable coaching others to strengthen their writing skills. 

Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.

Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.

Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.

Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion
At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally. 

We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we're responsible and accountable for driving positive change.

Ways of working
Our hybrid working approach combines the best of flexible working – a positive work/life balance, inclusive and accessible platforms, and online information at our fingertips.
