Jobs in Greater London

We're looking for an experienced strategy professional with a demonstrable track record of managing strategy projects to join the team on a permanent basis. 

This is an exciting time to join the team at Ambition Institute and we are energised about the strategic opportunities ahead. For almost 15 years, we and our predecessor charities have been delivering high quality professional development programmes to educators serving disadvantaged communities. We are now working with more teachers and school leaders than ever before, annually delivering programmes to over 50,000 educators nationwide.

As Associate Director, Strategy, you will be responsible for leading and implementing complex strategic projects across the organisation, playing a vital role in organisational decision making. Strategy projects will include evaluating new external delivery opportunities, influencing sector policy and practice projects, and internal strategy development and implementation. You will contribute to briefing papers for senior leaders and develop papers for our Executive Committee.
 

Who are Ambition Institute?
A great teacher changes the future every day. Especially for children who have had a tough start in life, a teacher can be the critical factor in their success.

At Ambition Institute we help schools tackling educational disadvantage to keep getting better and help their teachers and school leaders to become more expert over time.

That’s how we’ll make sure every child gets a great education and the best possible start in life.

• We train teachers and leaders at all levels to get better at the things that make the biggest difference: what you teach, how you teach it, and how you create the conditions for schools to thrive.
• We share what works. Everyone can benefit from evidence of how great teaching and leadership can improve schools and change lives, so we connect people to the latest research and best practice.
• We champion every teacher and school leader’s potential to develop, as the driving force for sustainable school improvement.

We would like you to:

• Lead the defining of new strategy projects to deliver our long-term strategy 
• Lead the delivery of complex strategy projects, collaborating with both senior and junior stakeholders across the organisation to achieve desired project goals and outcomes 
• Lead the planning, development and drafting of complex reports, facilitating input from senior colleagues, communicating complex ideas and proposals effectively to inform decision-making at the executive level.
• Facilitate highly effective meetings and workshops, building strong relationships across the organisation, and fostering collaboration across departments to input into strategy projects.
   

Working in a hybrid way, you’ll be attached to either our Birmingham, London or Manchester office and will report to the Head of Strategy.  In line with our current ways of working, you’ll be expected to be in the office at least 1 day a month, in addition to team days and this may be reviewed by Ambition. 
 

Skills, Knowledge and Experience

To succeed in this role, you'll have proven experience of initiating and delivering projects. You'll also have a track record of independently approaching complex problems in a structured way, leveraging evidence, business and financial acumen, and logical reasoning to support strong recommendations.

Our successful candidate will be a strong quantitative thinker and proactive relationship and stakeholder manager. It's essential that you have proven experience of producing papers with impact independently for Executive Committee and Board of Trustees stakeholders.

 If this has sparked some interest, we would love to receive an application from you.

Do you want to make life better for TNBI victims and survivors of abuse?

Galop, the UK’s LGBT+ anti-abuse charity, is seeking a TNBI Independent Domestic Violence Advocate (IDVA)  to support  TNBI survivors across the UK. 

Galop works directly with thousands of LGBT+ people who have experienced abuse and violence every year. We specialise in supporting victims and survivors of domestic abuse, sexual violence, hate crime, and other forms of abuse including honour-based abuse, forced marriage, and so-called conversion therapies. We are a service run by LGBT+ people, for LGBT+ people, and the needs of our community are at the centre of what we do.

We run a national support helpline for LGBT+ victims and survivors of: domestic abuse; hate crime; rape and sexual abuse; and so-called “conversion therapy”. We provide advocacy services, both in London and nationally, for LGBT+ victims who need longer-term support. We are person-centred, empowerment-based, and trauma-informed – meaning our focus is always on helping our clients decide what is best for them, and then supporting them through their journey. 

We use what we learn through working on the frontlines with clients to work on national and local policy change, to improve outcomes for LGBT+ victims and survivors of abuse and violence. We build evidence through key pieces of research, like our upcoming report into LGBT+ experiences of sexual violence. We push for legislative change, improved statutory guidance for victims, and better understanding of the needs of LGBT+ people around the country. 

We are looking forward to someone to join our advocacy and support team, supporting TNBI survivors across the UK. You will work directly with TNBI victims/survivors, offering them a space to talk and think through options, helping them plan what they want to do, and offering assistance in getting what they need from services. Your work will focus on needs specifically related to experiences of domestic violence and abuse, including issues such as wellbeing, support with the criminal and civil justice process, safety and access to other services to enable survivors to cope and recover. You will be empathetic and thoughtful in your approach to understanding your clients’ needs, while remaining boundaried and mindful of self-care.

You will work with mainstream services to ensure the voices and experiences of TNBI survivors are represented in order to make change for our community at a local and national level. You will also work closely with key partner organisations by attending meetings and have the opportunity to take part in external work to ensure a joined-up approach among services working with TNBI people facing abuse and violence. 

You will have expertise in delivering needs-led specialist support services, adhering to IDVA best practice and maintaining accurate records. You will ensure that data is collected on those we support to ensure that we continue to build an evidence base on the kinds of people we are supporting. You will need to be solutions-focussed and enjoy working collaboratively across a diverse and committed team. You’ll need to have good resilience and self-care, and be prepared to work in an environment where abuse and violence are regularly talked about. You’ll need to understand the impact of trauma and how that affects our team. 

Location: Galop’s offices are located in London. This role will be hybrid working, with both home working and working from the office.
