Job description

If you want to make a real difference to the experiences of women and birthing people in maternity care, by increasing understanding of the law amongst healthcare professionals, those who manage and regulate maternity care, and community organisations please read on and download our recruitment pack. Please note that this is a remote UK based role.

About Birthrights:

Birthrights was founded in 2013 with the understanding that at the heart of the poor experiences and outcomes of maternity care for so many people in the UK, is a consistent failure to listen to the voices of women and birthing people and a complete disregard for their fundamental human rights. We champion the rights of women and birthing people through information and support, training, campaigns, research and legal action. You can read our new 10-year strategic framework here Strategy - Birthrights.

About the role:

This is a central and valued role in our Senior Leadership Team. The position is critical to our work in training healthcare professionals to understand how the law applies to practice and our work to empower communities with the tools and language to advocate for their rights. You will be delivering our ambitious plans to take our training service to the next level at this critical time, with support of our two brilliant training co-ordinators and a wider network of associate trainers. You will balance overseeing some exciting new projects with ensuring quality delivery of our training to meet our income targets.

Home-based (UK based and able to travel to deliver training across England and Wales, and to attend some in-person meetings and events predominantly in London and Birmingham).

About You:

We are looking for someone who has the ability to manage an income-generating service, meet the strategic goals of the service, and identify advocacy opportunities towards our ambition for long term and systemic change.

You will be a collaborative and empathetic leader, with experience managing an operational service or team and generating income or managing budgets. You will have experience developing or delivering training and have some understanding of human rights law or the challenges faced by too many women and birthing people in maternity care in the UK.

We still want to hear from you even if you don’t meet all our criteria. Please tell us about experiences that have not been included here, but that you feel might be relevant to this role.
