Job description

SOS Children’s Villages UK is part of a global federation, founded in 1949. SOS Children’s Villages exists to ensure that each child and young person grows up with the healthy relationships they need to become their strongest selves. Working in over 130 countries, we are the world’s largest non-governmental organisation focused on supporting children and young people who don’t have, or who are at risk of losing, parental care.

We are now recruiting for a new role of Advocacy and External Relations Manager reflecting our ambitions to use our voice and expertise to ensure children and young people without, or at risk of losing, parental care around the world are more visible, better supported and their rights protected.

This exciting and strategically important new role is pivotal in helping SOS Children’s Villages UK achieve our advocacy objectives as part of our new 2025-2030 strategy. A confident and proactive advocacy professional, the Advocacy and External Relations Manager will plan and carry out a broad range of activities, identifying and pursuing opportunities to further our advocacy aims.

This individual will:

  • develop both internal (SOS Children’s Villages Federation) and external peer and UK government relationships
  • engage in relevant spaces to ensure that the needs of children and young people without parental care are reflected, and that SOS Children's Villages’ profile and reputation is enhanced.
  • devise and lead advocacy campaigns and create persuasive and engaging advocacy content and materials.
  • work alongside two other new colleagues, as a key part of delivering a new knowledge ‘Hub’.
  • help to develop new partnerships and relationships, and use the insights and evidence gained through the ‘Hub’ to craft advocacy recommendations, connecting with policy makers and other relevant stakeholders, to influence changes to policies and approaches around the protection of children.

We are looking for a self-motivated individual, who combines exceptional networking and relationship-building skills with strong organisational ability, and deep knowledge of the UK political landscape and advocacy tactics and approaches, ideally within an international development setting.

If you are a dynamic advocacy professional who is looking for an exciting new challenge within a friendly team, then this could be for you!

To Apply

Please read the full job description within the Candidate Pack, and submit a copy of your CV and a covering letter.

The deadline for applications is Sunday 17th November at 17.00 UK time. We reserve the right to close the application process early if a successful candidate is found.

Please note: The post-holder must be UK-based. We are unable to provide employment sponsorship if required and unfortunately cannot progress applications without the required right to live and work in the UK on a permanent contract.
