You’ll have both people and project management responsibilities, leading our campaigns on key policy issues such as facial recognition, free speech online, financial privacy, digital ID and algorithmic decision making in the welfare system.
You’ll plan, execute and evaluate campaigns across all areas of our organisational strategy: surveillance and power; free expression online; and identity and financial privacy - as well as explore new organisational priorities, over time.

You’ll be highly skilled in devising strategic campaign plans for the organisation to pursue within our work streams, and able to reflect and learn from each campaign.

Amplifying the voice of the Cannington Shaw Heritage Skills Academy
We have an exciting opportunity to join our team at Groundwork as Digital Media Officer at Cannington Shaw Heritage Skills Academy, where you'll be at the heart of our mission to preserve and promote heritage skills. We are seeking someone with creativity and passion who will help us reach new audiences and inspire the next generation.
At it’s height, Cannington Shaw was the largest glass bottle maker in the world. All that now remains is the # 7 Bottle Shop – a fine example of what was once one of the first regenerative tank furnaces in the world. Derelict since closure of the works in the 1980s, it is now badly overgrown, with considerable structural deterioration. The site is a Scheduled Ancient Monument, Grade II Listed, and on the Heritage at Risk Register since 2002.
In the ownership of the Cannington Shaw Preservation Trust, the site is about to undergo a transformation as the first phase in restoring the building begins thanks to a £1.3m grant from the St Helens Town Deal.

Passionate about peace, justice and human rights? Experienced in running successful advocacy and campaigns programmes?
Embrace the Middle East is a Christian charity helping people of all faiths and none to free themselves from a life of poverty and injustice. We partner with inspiring and courageous Christian organisations in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Palestine and Iraq, providing support services for refugees, enabling women's empowerment, working for community development and offering emergency humanitarian relief. Sustaining the active and powerful social impact of Christian-led NGOs in this amazing and diverse region is what drives us. The challenges are immense. But the sense of purpose is strong.
Advocacy is a growing part of our work, inspired and guided by the voices of our partners – primarily speaking and acting in relation to:
- Issues of peace, justice and equal rights in Israel and Palestine.
- Refugees and internally displaced people across the Middle East.
- The presence and role of Christians in the Middle East.
Informed by Christian voices from the Middle East, we engage with Bishops, church leaders, and politicians, and work to educate and mobilise the UK church to advocate for change.
We are looking to recruit an Advocacy and Campaigns Manager to drive and deliver the implementation of impactful advocacy and campaigns, which actively engage Embrace supporters and UK Christians and church leaders to amplify the voices of our partners and bring about change for their contexts in the Middle East.
Main responsibilities:
- Work collaboratively with colleagues across the organisation to develop and deliver impactful and engaging campaigns into the political sphere with a view to seeing policy and practice changes that will benefit Embrace’s partners and the communities they serve.
- Project manage the delivery of Embrace’s advocacy campaigns strategy for justice and inclusion in the Middle East.
- Work with the Partnership Managers and Church Engagement Team to maintain a nuanced and well-informed understanding of relevant policy, political, theological, church-related and development issues in the region and in the UK.
- Represent Embrace and build strong relationships with advocacy personnel within our Partners and wider sector groups.
- Support the Charity in every way possible to fulfil its vision and charitable aims.
Suitable candidates will possess substantial experience in policy development and engagement within the political system, demonstrating a proven ability to mobilise UK Christians for advocacy and change. You will have project management expertise, particularly in crafting and launching advocacy initiatives aimed at influencing key stakeholders and institutions, with a focus on establishing clear campaign objectives and ensuring timely, budget-compliant delivery of campaign activities.
In the context of this role, a strong theological insight into regional issues is essential, enabling the candidate to navigate the interplay between political and theological matters when collaborating with churches. Their professional capabilities will be complemented by a deep commitment to advancing Embrace’s advocacy efforts, aligning with the charity’s mission and values to transform the lives of marginalised people and communities.
Due to the Christian context of the position, it is subject to an occupational requirement under the Equality Act that you should be a practising Christian who shares our values and ethos at a profound level.
At Embrace, our team enjoys remote and flexible working arrangements, with the opportunity to start your day between 7.30am and 10am and finish between 3pm and 6pm. In addition, you will benefit from a good holiday entitlement and a comprehensive package including a pension scheme, life assurance, retail discounts and a 24/7 employee assistance programme.
