• Discounted gym memberships and cycle to work schemes.

Our hybrid working model:
We operate a 50% onsite hybrid working model, with our office-based staff splitting their time between site based and home working. This enables our office-based staff to balance the benefits of home working with onsite collaboration and maintaining a connection to our cause.

Diversity and inclusion:
We are committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive experience for all staff, volunteers and trustees and those hoping to join us. We operate an anonymised shortlisting process and actively seek to ensure our process is fair and equitable for all.

We understand the value of diverse voices, perspectives, and experiences to help us deliver even more for our dogs and cats, and we welcome applicants from all sections of the community.

As a Disability Confident Committed Employer we will ask about any adjustments you may need at application and/or interview stage, and if you are offered a role with us, we’ll talk to you about any workplace adjustments you may need to help you perform at your best. 

More about us:
At Battersea, we aim to never turn away a dog or cat in need of help. We give each one lots of love, expert care and get to know their characters and quirks so we can find them a new home that’s just right for them. Join us and help us be here for every dog and cat, wherever they are, for as long as they need us.

Acceptable use of AI:
At Battersea, we value expertise. We recognise each candidate that applies to us will have a range of expertise they can offer us, so we want to hear about this in your own words. We understand the support that generative artificial intelligence (AI) software can offer but it can also lead to numerous applications presenting as generic and impersonal. This makes it difficult to gain understanding of your unique experience.

To best showcase yourself, we encourage you to write your responses without the assistance of AI. If you require the use of AI software to aid in completing your application, we ask you use the generative responses as a prompt for writing your answers and avoid copying and pasting. You must also ensure the information presented in your application accurately reflects your experience.

Closing date: 26th February 2026
All applications must be submitted before the closing date advertised. We reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications is received.

Interview date(s):
First interview (online, via Teams): To be confirmed
Second interview (if necessary, in person): To be confirmed

Are you an experienced advocate and communicator with a desire to hold parliament accountable for the UK’s weapons exports?

Can you work creatively to have impact in the context of increased militarisation globally and in the UK?

Join a dedicated and passionate team challenging the UK arms trade and the institutions that perpetuate it.

Thank you for your interest in working at Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT). We are currently recruiting sabbatical cover for our Advocacy Manager. Working closely with our Research and Campaigns colleagues, you will be responsible for Parliamentary and legal work, and for liaison with relevant partner organisations. 

You will have excellent communication and relationship-building skills, to help you build and nurture partnerships with parliamentarians at all levels and with organisations and networks who share CAAT’s goals.

You will have good knowledge of how to use parliamentary procedures to achieve campaign goals, strong experience of monitoring and responding to Parliamentary activity related to core campaign issues. 

Your experience of engaging with individual parliamentarians and with formal consultation processes as part of a wider campaign strategy will be vital in ensuring that CAAT builds on existing support in Parliament to advance our key campaigns and help shift public attitudes towards the arms trade. 

This is a 13-month, four-day per week post, based either in our London office, or working from home (if within easy travelling distance of London - as this role requires regular in person availability in London), with a salary of £47,898 (£59,873 pro rata), including London weighting, plus 8% into a pension that doesn't invest in the arms trade.
