Key responsibilities
It is a hugely exciting time to be working in the online safety field. New regulation created by the Online Safety Act is set to significantly increase companies’ duties to keep users safe, especially children. At the same time, the online issues which families are contending with continue to evolve at pace: from mis- and dis-information in the age of generative AI, to increasing volumes of misogynistic online abuse, and data and privacy risks to name just a few.
There is cross-party consensus on the importance of tackling these issues, and a real appetite for practical, evidence-led solutions.
Against this backdrop, and ahead of a new government, Internet Matters is recruiting a Policy Manager to help ensure that our voice is heard in these conversations, advocating for the interests of children and families to be put first. This wide-ranging role will include:
-
Delivering policy projects on particular issues or themes (e.g. reports, briefings, roundtable events) – and supporting projects from other teams which have policy components. The successful candidate will author external-facing outputs, with support from the wider team.
-
Stakeholder engagement, public affairs and influencing – maintaining and developing a network of contacts across Government, Parliament, regulators, the third sector and industry. Identifying opportunities to push forward our agenda with key decision-makers, including through active participation in meetings and events.
-
Reactive policy work – e.g. monitoring the policy landscape, writing blogs, producing briefings, responding to consultations.
-
Supporting the successful running of our Expert Advisory Panel and Vulnerable Users Working Group, e.g. though producing minutes of discussions, diarising meetings, sourcing speakers, compiling agendas, etc.
-
Contributing your ideas to team discussions about the overarching strategy for our policy and research work.
About you
The successful candidate will have professional experience of working in policy, public affairs, or a closely related field. Knowledge of online safety/tech policy would be beneficial, but is not a requirement.
You may have worked for another charity/not-for-profit, a trade association, in government or in Parliament. You are excited by the opportunities of working in a small organisation, where everyone lends a hand to deliver key priorities, and where you can contribute very actively to our wider thinking and strategy.
Sometimes your work may focus on one or two of the key responsibilities listed above more than the others, in line with organisational need and external developments. We are therefore looking for someone who is comfortable with embracing all aspects of the job, with support, even though you may well have a preference for (or greater experience in) certain aspects of it. We are particularly keen to hear from candidates who have experience of public affairs and influencing work, given that external outreach is likely to be a significant focus for us in the year ahead, but please do still apply if your experience lies more elsewhere (e.g. writing reports).

Statutory and Trusts Bid Manager
Location: Agile working
Contract: Permanent, subject to funding
Hours: 32 per week over 4 days
Starting salary: £46,940
Who we are
Safer London is a charity working with young Londoners and families who are affected by violence and exploitation. We believe that when a child or young person comes to us they are just that – a child or a young person: we don’t define them by the issue that has brought them to us. By working alongside young Londoners, their families and peers in the places where they spend their time, we can create a safe London not just for them but for everyone.
Who you are
We’re looking for an experienced Bid Manager to help us improve the lives of young Londoners by growing our grant and contract-funded service portfolio.
You will understand the funding environment for youth charities from government commissioning and Trust funding opportunities, and will be ambitious to manage and drive growth across Safer London’s high quality and innovative service offer.
You will be someone with social justice at the core of your personal values, someone who places equity and inclusion at the centre of everything you do. We are also looking for someone with an understanding of and curiosity to learn about the varied experiences and challenges of young Londoners’ lives.
If you are committed and resilient and believe you have what it takes to help us improve the lives of young Londoners and their families, please apply.
What the role involves
- Work effectively with Safer London’s practice teams to identify opportunities and prepare successful funding bids in a competitive environment.
- Develop and maintain a pipeline of prospective funders and scan the external environment to identify new funding opportunities that are aligned to Safer London’s aims and strategic priorities.
- Develop and write inspirational, accurate, and compelling funding bids with the view of achieving sustainable long-term support for Safer London’s work.
- Build and maintain relationships with current and prospective funders, including through maximising any relationships held by senior colleagues and trustees.
- Maintain and develop internal income generation systems and processes, including donor records, financial information, funder reports, and internal monitoring to ensure effective stewardship and internal visibility of progress against plans.
Additional Information
Safer London is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and we expect anyone who works and volunteers with us to share this commitment. As part of this commitment, we will request a DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service) check, as well as references covering the last five years, for the successful candidates.
We value diversity and encourage and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. We know that in order to make London a safer place for the young people that live here we need a diverse range of perspectives, experience, and knowledge.
What we offer
Safer London continually reviews its pay and we currently offer the following benefits package to all our employees:
- Agile working. This means you will have the flexibility to work in different locations including from home, our office in Southwark and/or community locations (libraries/co-working spaces) when you are not delivering face to face work in the community.
- Flexible Working: our Flexible Working Policy allows requests to work flexibly from the start of your employment.
- A contributory Pension Scheme.
- Interest-free Season Ticket Loans.
