Head Of Organisational Development And Learning Jobs
About the Legal Education Foundation
“Why does it matter that people can understand and use the law?”
This question lies at our core. By asking it, the role of the law as a tool for social justice has become the common thread in our development. We are now one of the largest social justice funders in the UK, and one of the only ones to focus on the specific role and potential of the law. We do this through the strategic development and delivery of a number of programmes and initiatives.
We distribute around £6m a year through our grants, which cover areas of law including human rights, employment, housing, discrimination, children’s rights, community care, education, immigration, asylum and public and administrative law. We also fund particular issues and communities, such as racial justice, gender justice including violence against women and girls, disability justice, tenants, workers, migrants, refugees and children.
The Justice First Fellowship
In 2014 we established the Justice First Fellowship (JFF), our flagship scheme to support the next generation of social justice lawyers. More than 160 Fellowships have been awarded across all four nations in the UK, over ten cohorts. The Foundation has invested around £10.6 million into the scheme with additional contributions from other funders totalling £4.7 million.
The Fellowships have supported the new lawyers to use their skills and networks to bring about social change. Over 90% of JFF graduates remain in legal roles using law for public benefit and we are committed to continuing to support our alumni over the long term. So, it is an active and engaged group with a growing collective impact and voice for social justice.
About the role
This is a new role within the Foundation, and the post-holder will play a key part in ensuring the successful delivery of this flagship scheme. As part of a small and collaborative team, the JFF Officer role is varied and will include overseeing the coordination of events and training, acting as a key point of contact for Fellows as well as administration, communication and relationship management. The candidate will join us at an exciting time as we explore opportunities to help further develop the support provided to our Fellows.
If you have relevant experience and skills, are passionate about social justice and the not-for-profit sector, and thrive on building relationships, then this could be a great opportunity for you. On a practical note there will be some UK travel and you’ll need a demonstrable ability to juggle multiple projects. There’s lots more information in the pack (linked below) so please find out more if you are interested, and if you feel that you could be right for the role then we’d love to hear from you.
Power, Culture and Inclusion
As an organisation we are committed to shifting power in the systems that we are part of. Through a process of learning about anti-oppression, developing our values and behaviours, we want to build the best workplace.
Across all our recruitment we are working towards greater equity, diversity and inclusion and take this journey extremely seriously. Part of this journey is building a team that is diverse and representative, so whilst you will need the skills and experience described, we really want to hear from candidates from a wide range of backgrounds. We particularly encourage people with lived experience of social welfare legal issues and where they intersect with structural racism and other forms of discrimination. However, there is no expectation for candidates to disclose details of personal experiences at any stage during this recruitment or during their work at the LEF.

About the charity
PVRI is a small charity with a global reach. Our aim is to reduce the global burden of Pulmonary Vascular Disease with a particular focus on Pulmonary Hypertension (PH): PH is a life-threatening and life-limiting condition that affects millions worldwide.
PH can lead to heart damage and trigger symptoms like breathlessness, chest pain, poor growth, and severe difficulties exercising and carrying out normal daily tasks. Diagnosis and care aren’t readily available in many parts of the world, and even when it is, PH treatment can itself be challenging and life-changing. Although it’s estimated that PH affects 1% of the global population, it isn’t widely recognised or well-understood.
To change that, we bring together a fantastic network of energetic and committed PH doctors, academics, patients, and industry partners. Together we’re identifying and addressing the key challenges in global PH, educating the global workforce, and encouraging research. In practical terms, we:
- Host international scientific conferences
- Produce an open-access peer reviewed PH journal, Pulmonary Circulation
- Run webinars and e-learning
- Raise awareness of PH and health inequalities, and advocate for better access to diagnosis, care and treatment - nationally and internationally
- Bring .our members and networks together in working forums:
- The Innovative Drug Development Initiative (IDDI): eight multidisciplinary workstreams working to solve the challenges in PVD research and speed the development of new treatment
- Specialty Task Forces: groups working to advance understanding and improve practice in specific clinical areas of PH
- Regional Task Forces: working in-country to address the key regional and national challenges in PH
We are a London-based registered charity and limited company, governed by an international Board of Trustees and supported by a new Scientific and Medical Advisory Council.
Our small friendly staff team comprises our CEO Karen, Head of Comms Debs, Marketing Officer Emily, Project CoOrdinator Sarah and Admin Manager Katie, supported by our freelance Finance Manager Steph. We work a flexible hybrid model, with office space in Work.Life, close to London Bridge and Borough Market.
In terms of our values, we’re open, inclusive and easy to engage with, and we’re ambitious for ourselves and for the global PVD community.
About the Project Coordinator
The Coordinator provides project and administrative support to our international Workstreams and Task Forces, enabling them to successfully deliver complex academic and scientific workplans, surveys, webinars, research and academic papers.
Key tasks include
- managing group membership, and scheduling and managing virtual meetings across multiple time zones
- setting up surveys, arranging translations and testing, and collating and manipulating data
- liaison with our journal editors regarding fees and publication schedules for workstream papers, and proofreading and formating these papers for publication
- support the planning, delivery and evaluation of workgoup webinars and e-learning, in conjunction with our Comms team
- scheduling and supporting F2F workgroup meetings and presentations at our annual Congress
