Just for Kids Law (JfKL) works with and for children and young people to hold those with power to account and fight for wider reform. They do this by providing legal representation and advice, strategic litigation, campaigning, and equipping others to work for children’s rights.

They’ve achieved some incredible reforms that make a big difference to the lives of children and young people, including changes to the law on criminal records, which resulted in thousands of young people not being held back from fulfilling their potential, and ensuring that 17-year-olds are always treated as children in police custody. Additionally, JfKL hosts The Children’s Rights Alliance for England (CRAE), which works with around 100 members to promote children’s rights and monitor government implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

"Just for Kids Law has recently refocussed to ensure we make an impact where it’s needed most: providing trauma-informed and anti-racist legal representation to children and young people in contact with the criminal justice system and using the evidence from this case work to fight for systematic change.

We are looking for an exceptional colleague to co-lead the organisation with us and further strengthen Just for Kids Law’s fundraising and communications capacity. If you would relish the opportunity of working in a fast-paced, rights-based organisation that doesn’t shy away from the difficult issues, we would love to hear from you."
