About us

Foxglove is a litigation and campaigning nonprofit that exists to make the use of technology fair. When governments and major tech companies use technology to abuse their power, we investigate, litigate and campaign to make it right. 

Big Tech companies have become so large – gobbling up a huge slice of the global marketplace and an unprecedented treasure hoard of user data – that they’re now more powerful than many states. The harmful effects of this concentration of power are everywhere – threats to our democracy, to our privacy, decimated workers’ rights and platforms rife with disinformation and hate. Governments are ploughing ahead with the use of algorithms and mass data systems to cut costs and increase efficiency often resulting in digital tools that entrench unfairness and leave the most vulnerable in society in crisis. All these problems are only getting worse with generative AI.

Foxglove works to bring the rule of law to the tech and AI giants who have upended our public square, workplaces, and social lives. We fight to reduce these anti-democratic behemoths’ size and power and we challenge them for abusing their workers. We also work to ensure public bodies use data and algorithms openly, fairly, and legally. 

We have a strong track record. We’ve launched landmark cases seeking structural changes to big tech’s harmful business models, supported 180+ Facebook content moderators fired for trying to form a union to sue Facebook and their outsourcing company, Sama – winning world-first judgements. We helped launch Africa’s first content moderators' union and are urging UK and EU regulators to halt Big Tech’s maneuvers to hoover up generative AI as it has the rest of our online world. We have forced disclosure of secret contracts between tech giants and the NHS, stopped a racist Home Office visa streaming algorithm, helped make grading fair for UK A level students, forced the government to pause the NHS Data Grab and challenged the Department of Work and Pension’s use of an algorithm unfairly flagging disabled people for benefit fraud investigations.

We are a small but growing team of lawyers, communications experts, and campaigners. Our work is global, and we work in partnership with lawyers, civil society, unions, and impacted people. 

About you

You are an experienced lawyer with a strong interest in using the law to hold governments and companies to account. You understand change doesn’t only take place within the walls of the court and that movements only succeed when they’re inclusive, making as many people as possible see they have a stake in these issues. You are a self-starter with the initiative to find opportunities, but the team-spiritedness to contribute to a shared goal and celebrate others’ work. If that’s you, and the Foxglove mission excites you, we would love to hear from you.

The role

The post holder will be responsible for managing Foxglove’s legal team and legal work. You will drive forward a range of cases, including the development of case theories, investigating and collecting evidence, drafting correspondence, evidence and submissions. You will also be responsible for coordinating and managing external legal teams. UK and international travel is required. 

Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Case Development and Management

• Listen to affected communities, unearth issues caused by tech injustice, and come up with innovative legal solutions.
• Build and maintain relationships with impacted community members, unions, other lawyers, experts, co-counsel, intervenors, civil society organisations and the public.

• Effectively work with the co-Executive Director to implement Foxglove’s legal strategy

• Qualified lawyer in any jurisdiction with at least senior legal experience. 
• Ability to learn new areas of law quickly and develop new areas of work.

• Relevant experience in analysing complex factual and legal situations and helping to advise clients in accordance with their aims.

Key Responsibilities

YEF is entering a new phase of growing scale and ambition. There is more urgency and scope than ever for us to contribute meaningfully towards preventing violence amongst children and young people. Communicating with, informing and persuading our growing audiences about the vitality of our mission will require being innovative, hands-on and prepared to speak out with humanity and boldness.

The Public Affairs and Communications Team is crucial for effectively communicating and promoting YEF's ideas to a wider audience and driving demand for the evidence about what works to prevent violence amongst children and young people. We can only hope to achieve our mission if those working in our sectors hear from us about what works, trust our research and put our guidance into practice. We need policymakers, politicians and people in charge of services to listen and act, but also youth-workers, police, social workers, headteachers and young people to believe in our movement for change on the ground. We want to continue being a leading voice in the national conversation about preventing violence.

​Your job will be essential to this. You will support the Public Affairs and Communications team to communicate our work as thoughtfully, impactfully and creatively as possible through engaging media communications and PR campaigns, video-led social media content and strategic digital marketing.

Your responsibilities will mostly fall under the following three areas:

​Digital Marketing, Social Media and Video

• Editing, updating and maintaining content on the website, and collaborating with relevant staff teams to ensure content is up to date.
• Supporting with monthly digital content generation for YEF social media channels, including the planning and creation of short videos and boosting engagement for the YEF podcast.
• Supporting with segmented email marketing and newsletter content.
• Monitoring and evaluating our performance across digital platforms in order to expand the number of unique site visits to key website and social media pages, including the Toolkit, YouTube and LinkedIn. ​

Communications, Media and PR

• Drafting, managing and distributing stakeholder communications across public affairs and media for new YEF publications and outputs.
• Identifying and generating monthly media opportunities through outreach with journalists and collating media, publication and journalist lists.
• Managing the @hello organisational inbox and other communications streams.
• Managing the distribution and development of the case study template and supporting with the successful launch of the grantee storytelling programme. ​

Team Support and Administration

• Organising and note-taking for weekly team meetings and tracking the timely completion of minutes and actions.
• Identifying and generating new public speaking and audience engagement opportunities for Director of Public Affairs and Communications. ​

About you​​

• You are interested in applying research to understanding and solving social problems affecting people in British society. ​
• You are passionate about telling human stories that use creative writing, design, photography and videography to engage diverse audiences. ​
• You have experience of using WordPress, Mailchimp or other digital marketing tools, this can be used strategically to get people outside of an organisation to pay attention to and engage with its work. ​
• You have experience creating social media assets (using software such as Canva or Adobe Illustrator) and increasing audience engagement on social media platforms such as LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram. ​
• You are a team player who works in an organised, communicative and selfless way. ​
• You are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. You believe and act in a way that celebrates and encourages a range of experiences, backgrounds and values. ​
  ​

You may ideally have, but they are not essential:

• Experience of working for an organisation that works with, or on issues affecting, children and young people. ​
• Digital marketing and communications experience in an organisation whose audiences include youth workers, teachers, the police and policymakers. ​
• Short-form video production and editing skills, particularly in service of TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. ​
• Experience of working with journalists, publications and online platforms on bringing content, media and PR campaigns to life. ​​

While it’s not a criteria, we’re especially interested to hear from applicants who have lived experience of violence affecting children and young people.

​

It’s also important to us that the people we hire do not discriminate. We believe in being inclusive and giving everyone an equal chance to succeed.
