We are recruiting a Policy and Campaigns Manager to take forward our work on household debt. This role plays a key part in our campaign to end the UK’s household debt crisis.

Over ten million people in the UK are now ‘overindebted’, meaning they are behind on bills or are finding their debt repayments a heavy financial burden. The crisis has been growing over the last decade but has increased dramatically because of the pandemic and the cost-of-living crisis. More and more people are now borrowing to cover bills and essentials.

Our campaign combines community organising with national level campaigning and advocacy work to bring the voices of those most affected by the debt crisis to the fore in debates on policy solutions. You will use your policy and campaigning expertise to help ensure the people most impacted by problem household debt have a say in influencing the policies that affect them. You will work on issues such as the growth in council tax debt and bailiff use, the huge build up in energy debt as a result of the cost of living crisis and making insolvency policy and practice fairer and more accessible so more people can get out of debt.

You will be a key member of our household debt project team, working alongside the Head of Campaigns, Head of Policy and Advocacy, Digital Campaigner and Lead  Organiser.

We are looking for someone with great policy analysis and advocacy skills, a strong campaigning mindset, and a passion for social justice. We are not expecting you to already be an expert in all aspects of the role or in household debt policy but are looking for someone with the potential to develop quickly. Crucially, you will also need to appreciate why taking a community organising approach and building the power of people affected by debt is important, though you do not need to have experience in community organising.

This role will require some evening and weekend working, though this will be infrequent.

We strongly value diversity and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds. We would particularly like to encourage applications from women and non-binary people, people of colour, people who identify as LGTBQIA+ and people who identify as working class or have done in the past. If you have a question about location or any other aspect of the role, please do get in touch.

Are you ready to step into a role where your passion for compassionate care meets unwavering support? At our company, recognised as the first to achieve a CQC Outstanding rating in the Abortion Care sector, you’ll find just that!

Grow with Us and Be Rewarded for Your Dedication

As a Registered Nurse, you’ll provide safe and effective abortion and contraception care, including vasectomy services, to our clients in Oxford and surrounding Community Treatment Centres. You'll be supported by an amazing Clinical Services Matron and Clinical Team Leader, helping you sharpen your skills and grow professionally.

With our comprehensive training, you'll have the chance to master new competencies like ultrasound scanning, implant and coil fitting, and more. If you’re a caring and driven Registered Nurse passionate about reproductive healthcare, we want you on our team at MSI UK! Join one of the UK’s leading providers of abortion services and help us continue delivering exceptional care to our clients.

• Financial Reward: Take advantage of Free Parking, a competitive salary with opportunities for progression, up to 5% employer pension contribution and thousands of perks through Blue Light card!

The Pensions Policy Institute (PPI) is an educational research institute established to help improve later life outcomes. We are independent and an expert across all elements of the UK pension system. We contribute facts, analysis and commentary to help stakeholders, decision-makers and law-makers take informed policy positions and decisions on pensions and retirement income provision.

Location

We are a hybrid organisation and operate a remote working policy which means staff spend some time working in the office and some time working remotely.

We therefore anticipate that the normal place of work will be at the PPI office in Central London.

Diversity and Inclusion

We aim to build, develop and retain a talented workforce that represents a variety of backgrounds, skills and experiences.
