Hybrid working - one day a month at War on Want’s head office, 44-48 Shepherdess Walk, London N1 7JP; more in-person days required on an ad-hoc basis.

War on Want works to challenge the root causes of poverty, inequality and injustice through partnership with social movements in the Global South and by running hard-hitting campaigns in the UK in support of radical change. 

Our economic justice work focuses on developing policies and campaigns that press for meaningful change on issues related to the global economy. We have focused on campaigns for a living wage, and on the protection of workers’ rights in corporate global supply chains, we also work to hold corporations to account by exposing their abuse of the tax system. We believe the global economic system underpins the multiple crises of poverty, inequality, injustice and climate breakdown, rigged to benefit rich elites and profit-driven corporate interests. Our economic justice work is now focused on developing campaigns on tax, trade and debt justice as measures to transform economic policies to redistribute power and wealth for the benefit of the majority.

In recent years, War on Want has increasingly focused on the climate crisis as the most pressing ethical and political issue of our time. It is a crisis that is deeply connected to rising inequality, poverty and injustice, disproportionately impacting the world’s poorest and most marginalised. We have worked closely with allies and in coalitions to draw attention to the need for a radical, interconnected and ambitious transformation, by calling for a radical Global Green New Deal, recognising that policies and proposals to reduce global warming will only work if they are coupled with measures to fix the global economy, to reduce poverty and inequality, and to work towards a just transition for all. We see these crises as intersectional, and directly linked to our work on economic justice.

We are looking for a skilled campaigner with knowledge and experience of working on economic justice issues and on related global justice issues. The role will focus on delivering our ongoing policy and campaigning including its interlinkages with climate justice.

Application deadline: 9am on Monday 11 November 2024.

War on Want is a registered charity no 208724. We actively encourage applicants from ethnic minorities and aim to be an equal opportunities employer.

About the role

2024 marks 34 years since SSAFA began delivering an independent non-statutory, and confidential service, for the Royal Air Force community across the UK, and this is an exciting time to be joining as we were recently successful in our bid to continue delivering this service.

We are transforming our ways of working to be innovative, to ensure our service is even more inclusive and accessible to meet the needs of a modern RAF.

As part of this transition, we are recruiting to several Welfare Officer vacancies across the UK, including apprenticeship opportunities which will be advertised in due course.
