About the Trade Justice Movement

The Trade Justice Movement is a UK coalition of organisations advocating for trade justice, including trade unions, aid agencies, environment and human rights campaigns.

TJM has led advocacy on issues including the privileges offered to investors, democratic scrutiny of trade agreements and the impact of trade deals on climate change and the environment. We play an important role in supporting politicians, the media and other civil society organisations in developing their understanding of and ability to engage in trade debates.

Following the Brexit vote, international trade became a key focus for government and the media. The UK has a unique opportunity to develop trade policy which is aligned with climate goals.

• Support TJM’s influencing work within key civil service departments including Cabinet Office, BEIS, DIT and Defra and with the aim of influencing the UK’s approach to COP26 and beyond.

Working with a small team, you will need both a strong ability to develop innovative approaches in the areas identified, manage your time and work plan and to be proactive in developing networks. This is an exciting opportunity to make a big impact as the UK develops its independent trade policy and hosts COP26.

• Establish effective, regular communications with member and partner organisations.
• Maintain TJM’s web content on this issue.

Convening Civil Society Organisations

• Provide opportunities for civil society organisations to collaborate and advocate in this area, including through regular meetings, joint letters and engagement with civil service departments. 
• Organise a number of seminars and briefing meetings for TJM members to build civil society capacity on trade and climate change.
• Work with the Senior Adviser to engage with existing climate change forums.

Institutional Engagement

• Develop and maintain relationships with key UK civil service departments including Cabinet Office, BEIS, DIT and Defra.
• Where appropriate, identify and engage with other international institutions, this might include the WTO, the UN or the OECD.
• Work with other team members to respond to opportunities to engage including consultation responses, meetings and online forums.
• Track preparations for COP26 and highlight opportunities to influence the process, as well as the UK’s broader trade and climate policies.
