Employment Policy and Public Affairs Officer
Remote working
£30,000 - £34,000 pa pro rata plus excellent benefits
35 hours per week (part-time considered)

This is not a traditional policy and public affairs role. You may have gained your experience in the third sector, civil service or working for an MP, or maybe in a corporate HR or EDI role.  You will help deliver our ambitious plan to secure social change to make society more inclusive for people who are deaf or have hearing loss. In this role you will be working across our range of policy, programme and public affairs activity – engaging with external stakeholders, including policy makers and large corporate partners, to improve access to and the experience of employment for our communities.

Around half of your time will be dedicated to policy work as part of our Employment Programme. We know that people who are deaf or have a hearing loss are less likely to be in employment, and that employer attitudes and poor Government support holds our community back. You’ll need to understand the disability employment policy landscape and marshal our evidence to make a persuasive case for social change to Government and other stakeholders.

RNID provides consultancy services to or enters into partnerships with businesses to help them become a better and more inclusive employer of people who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus. You will support this work by bringing your knowledge and expertise of employment policy to ensure that we provide up to date advice and guidance. You’ll also play a key role in translating this evidence into information and guidance for our website.

You will be the public affairs coordinator for the team, including actively supporting the APPG for Deafness, for which RNID provides the secretariat. You’ll also be required to undertake daily political monitoring and co-ordinate how we support our parliamentary champions in Westminster.

Essential experience:
• Some experience in a policy and public affairs role
• Understanding of day-to-day parliamentary procedures
• Demonstrable ability to distil information into well-structured written briefings or summaries
• Experience of working on employment and/or disability employment issues
• A proactive and creative mindset, with an ability to work flexibly
• Evidence of strong organisational skills
• Ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary team

We are RNID: the national charity supporting the 18 million people in the UK who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus. We also know the value of a friendly face in local communities to support people where they need it most.

We are a remote working organisation, with colleagues based across the UK and Ireland.. We come together in person three times a year for our Staff Summits.. We bring together the best of digital and in-person working in a modern, progressive organisation. We offer a sector-leading flexible working policy to all our staff from day one.

We know our colleagues have responsibilities and interests outside work and we want to support that, which is why we offer a sector-leading flexible working policy to all our staff from day one. Our values are at the heart of how we work and communicate with each other, and the outside world. We strive to be an organisation that is connected, insightful, curious and passionate in everything we do.

We champion the value of difference and equality and celebrate our diverse and inclusive workforce. We actively encourage applications from eligible candidates from BAME backgrounds or who are deaf or hard of hearing. With almost 20% of our employees having a disability we proudly hold Disability Confident Leader status and guarantee an interview for disabled applicants meeting the minimum essential criteria.

Closing date: 10 February 2025
Interviews: w/c 17 February 2025

INTRAC is looking for a dynamic individual with a passion for civil society to join as Director of Fundraising and Partnerships.

INTRAC is unashamedly for civil society. We are a mission-driven, not-for-profit organisation, focused on the core belief that vibrant, diverse and inclusive civil societies are essential catalysts for a world where everyone can thrive. We believe that locally available civil society support is essential as part of the wider movement to ‘shift the power’ to enable those tackling inequality and injustice to be resilient and effective, to navigate changes in their context and contribute to long-term inclusive locally led change.  This is an exciting time for the organisation as we move from envisioning our strategy to implementing it.  

Our strategic framework, Locally Rooted, Globally Connected will guide INTRAC’s practice over the next five years, as we evolve to becoming a network-led organisation, influenced and informed by the priorities, insights and aspirations of our network members, and the networks we interact with.  Together we will work to shift how civil society support is conceived and delivered: to transform civil society support eco-systems, so that local and global organisations are supported to develop, engage with others, and do what they want to do, better, to deliver just, equitable and sustainable societies.  

The role of strategic funding is crucial to this transformative change.  We are looking for an individual who is committed to anti-racist and feminist leadership to join our senior leadership team and help drive this change.

You will have significant experience and a proven track record in developing and delivering fundraising strategy, particularly focused on trusts, foundations and philanthropy, taking a relationship-based approach to build partnerships with organisations that share similar values and vision.

You will work with the team to build our capability, partnership, systems and processes to steward relationships, develop grants and manage their delivery.  Working with our Communications Co-ordinator you will help to build INTRAC’s profile and position in line with our strategic vision and ambitions.  You will have active support from the CEO along with strong board commitment to help develop and deliver this role.

This is a part time role (0.6-0.8 FTE); initially offered as an eighteen month contract with the intention to extend should the role be successful.

We are a remote organisation, with staff working across the UK. As we become a global network we are looking at options as to how to expand our staff base in different geographies, as we believe this will benefit INTRAC and support our strategic direction.  However, we do not have a straightforward way to do this currently. Whilst we are open to considering applicants from all parts of the world we will not sponsor visa applications. If you are based outside the UK and are keen to consider one of our roles please email Jenny George to discuss details.

To apply for the role please share a copy of your CV and respond to the following three questions (word limit 750 words):

1. Build Partnerships: Please tell us about a time when you have built a long-term relationship and secured strategic funding from new funder.

2. Leadership: Please tell us about a time when you challenged current practice in an organisation and embedded a new way of working.

3. Communication: Please tell us about a time when communicated a complex issue, raising its profile and encouraging others to engage with it/act on it.

In answering, please provide as much evidence as you can, to explain:

· the Situation in which you acted,

· what you were Tasked to do,

· the Actions you took and

· the Results you achieved and

· what you learnt from the process.

Answering the questions in this way will help the short-listing panel recognise and understand clearly the combination of knowledge, skills and competencies that you bring to the role.
