About CRIN

This is who we are and what we are fighting for

 CRIN is a creative human rights organisation focused on children’s rights. We press for rights - not charity - and campaign for a genuine shift in how governments and societies view and treat children. Our goal is a world where the human rights of children and young people are recognised, respected, and enforced, and where every rights violation has a remedy.

We work on many issues, from the survival of the planet to sexual violence, to civil and political rights, to the right to bodily integrity, privacy, expression, and information, to how children’s rights are affected by new technology.

We advocate for international institutions like the United Nations, as well as governments and professionals, to adopt strong children’s rights policies. We undertake legal research and analysis and propose better policies where these are lacking. We recognise the importance of activism at all levels and support the campaigning of organisations led by people with lived experience. Through critical thinking, artwork, and our vision for the future, we encourage people to think differently about the world we live in.

About the role

 

This is the campaign you will be working on 

 

One of the key issues we work on is accountability for sexual violence against children in institutions in Latin America, which aims to challenge impunity and improve access to justice for victims and survivors. Combating sexual violence against children globally has been a core part of CRIN’s work for more than a decade, and from this experience we see common challenges across the most systemic and entrenched forms of institutional abuse and exploitation: secrecy, cover-ups, abuse of power, stigma, shame, and impunity.

To successfully challenge this status quo, we have looked at the experiences of countries like Ireland and Australia, which were some of the first countries where survivors mobilised to demand and secure legal reforms to improve access to justice and establish national inquiries into child sexual abuse which prompted other policy reforms. In an effort to support and strengthen similar survivor-led activism elsewhere in the world, since 2019 CRIN has worked alongside grassroots organisations in Latin America led by adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Our focus has been to support their national campaigning that challenges impunity for abuse committed in the region’s Catholic Church, but we have since expanded the scope of our work to cover institutional settings more broadly.

CRIN’s added value in the campaign includes providing much-needed financial support and capacity building, research support, international and legal advocacy and helping to expand partnerships. By working with survivor-led networks, we aim to encourage their development across the region so that governments can no longer ignore their demands for truth, justice, reforms, and reparations.

This is who we are looking for…

We are looking for someone to coordinate the end-to-end delivery of the campaign. The focus of the role is on project and budget management, strategy planning and implementation, and partnership building. But given the generalist nature of campaigning, you may at times conduct advocacy support, media outreach, research and analysis, and event coordination.

You would work alongside the Legal Advocacy and Campaign Coordinator, as well as part of the core project team comprising the Co-Directors and the Legal and Policy Coordinator.

Your responsibilities will include:

● Leading the delivery of CRIN’s campaign supporting grassroots organisations in Latin America to end impunity for child sexual abuse in institutional settings.

● Building and maintaining trust-based partnerships with grassroots survivor-led networks in Latin America, ensuring engagement is anti-colonial, trauma-informed and participatory.

● Building partnerships with key allies, such as civil society groups, journalists, academics, legal experts, consultants and funders.

● Managing the campaign budget and related administrative tasks, including partnership contracts and sub-granting. 

● Providing advocacy, research, and administrative support to partners, as needed. 

● Organising capacity-building events to support partners’ organisational development.

● Providing occasional research and writing support to colleagues in the production of advocacy materials, including submissions to human rights bodies and research reports.

● Managing project communications, including updating the campaign webpage, leading on media outreach, coordinating the production of research reports and translating all project materials. 

● Working with CRIN’s communications staff to create content for the website, social media, and newsletter.

● Managing the campaign’s Monitoring and Evaluation, recording, and reporting actions, deliverables, and learnings, including coordinating annual progress reports to our funder.

● Participating in regular project meetings to discuss developments, address any issues and plan the next stages of the work.

● Participating in organisation-wide activities such as regular team meetings and collective decision-making.

We are looking for someone with the following attributes:

● Professional experience or interest in issues related to access to justice for survivors of childhood sexual violence.

● Professional experience or interest in working with grassroots organisations and/or survivor-led organisations.

● Native-level fluency in written and spoken Spanish and English.

We are currently looking for a Legal and Policy Adviser to join our growing team to drive forward our strategic legal and policy advocacy. This is an exciting opportunity to help build an ambitious movement to phase out oil and gas extraction in the UK.

 

About Uplift

Uplift supports efforts to create a rapid and fair transition away from oil and gas production in the UK. We strategically support, connect and elevate ideas and voices to set in motion a just transition away from fossil fuel production commensurate with the scale of the climate crisis.
 

The role

As Legal and Policy Adviser, you will collaborate with Uplift’s team and key partners to ensure that our collective work is underpinned by robust and forward-thinking legal and policy analysis. From supporting strategic litigation and legal advocacy to ensuring our politics team have a sound understanding of relevant policy frameworks, this is a diverse role at the heart of our work pushing a just transition away from oil and gas extraction. 

Uplift has taken and supported high-profile climate litigation and used legal insight to generate front-page headlines linked to our campaigns. Most recently, we have won the legal case against the Rosebank oil field in the North Sea. We have also generated legal analysis to support a wider network to participate in vital public consultation processes. 

The successful candidate will have exceptional legal and policy research skills, an ability to think strategically about law and policy opportunities, and a keen interest in climate and energy-related policy and campaigns. A strong commitment to Uplift's mission and core values is also required.

Responsibilities

Core responsibilities include:

• Support the delivery of Uplift’s responses to ongoing policy processes, litigation, law reform advocacy, and legal analysis, advancing Uplift’s objectives.

• Support the Principal Legal Adviser in executing strategic litigation opportunities and providing analysis and support to external lawyers and experts throughout.

• Develop legal and policy analysis to support campaign, communications and policy strategies, including support for key partners.

• Track ongoing policy and legal developments across Uplift’s core areas of interest to support identifying key opportunities and gaps.

• Analyse, interpret and synthesise legal and policy developments to support the Politics team in advising our network.

• Provide fact-checking and ad-hoc policy and legislative analysis for the Uplift team to ensure accuracy in Uplift’s public communications.

• Contribute to the wider work of the Research, Policy and Legal team, including building and maintaining relationships with key external partners.

About you

Our ideal candidate will have: 

• Experience in a similar or related role.

• Policy or legal knowledge focussed on environmental or social justice. A formal legal qualification or policy and legislative experience would be beneficial. Direct experience on the energy transition, fossil fuels, renewables or a just transition would also be beneficial, but Uplift will support the right candidate in developing this expertise.

• A demonstrable ability to provide compelling and novel analysis, including defining and executing strategic research projects.

• Exceptional writing and synthesis skills, and a very strong attention to detail.

• Motivation, initiative, exceptionally high standards, a collaborative approach, and associated qualities needed to work in a dynamic organisation with an ambitious agenda.

• A strong commitment to Uplift’s mission and core values of equity and climate justice. 

 

Equality, diversity and inclusion are at the core of Uplift’s values and therefore we strongly encourage applications from candidates whose backgrounds or accessibility/support needs mean they have been traditionally under-represented in the climate and environment sector. If you are unsure if you meet the requirements or feel you will be disadvantaged by the process then please email us so we can see how we might provide support. 

Unfortunately, we can only consider candidates who are already eligible to work in the UK.
