Job description

Guide Dogs is looking for two policy officers to join our award-winning Policy, Public Affairs and Campaigns team.

At Guide Dogs we’re passionate about making a difference to the lives of people with sight loss. And our passion is persuasive. As a much-loved and respected charity, we have a track record of successful campaigns that bring about meaningful change. We have strong relationships with politicians and are consistently named by MPs as one of the most influential charities.

We are recruiting two policy officers: one to support our work on making the built environment and transport accessible and inclusive, as well as working on our campaigns to tackle guide dog access refusals (Live Actively). The other policy officer will work on our campaigns to ensure that children and young people get the support they need to flourish (Live Independently & Well).

In these roles you will have the opportunity to shape and develop evidenced-based policy positions, draft consultation responses and policy briefings; monitor and respond to relevant policy developments; support the implementation of the public affairs strategy; and support the mobilisation of the public and our campaigns supporters and volunteers.

We offer a flexible benefits package, discounts and cashback scheme, a generous holiday allowance and matched contributory pension scheme to care for our people.

We value in-person collaboration with our teams, so we are looking for you to attend the office at least 2/3 days per week, and occasionally over weekends for party conferences.

How to apply 

Further details on the full role are attached below. When you are ready to apply, submit an online application form via this page by 9am on Monday 24th March 2025

If you require any accessibility support to apply, our friendly recruitment team is ready and waiting to help. 

We anticipate holding interviews at our London office week commencing 7th April 2025.

As part of your application ensure you provide evidence and examples of how your skills & experience meet the criteria as set out in the attached job description.

If you want to know more about the teams who work at Guide Dogs, you can find it on our Careers Page

Guide Dogs welcomes applications from all sections of the community and actively encourages diversity to maximise achievements, creativity and good practice. We positively welcome and seek to ensure we achieve diversity in our workforce and that all job applicants and employees receive equal and fair treatment, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, disability or nationality. 

As a Disability Confident Employer, we are proud, whenever possible, to offer an interview to all candidates that meet our selection criteria, and who indicate they wish their application to be considered under our Disability Confident interview commitment. For more details, visit our careers site.

If you are successful you will need to provide evidence of your right to work in the UK via our digital ID checking supplier; in addition, we cannot offer visa sponsorship at this time.

Safeguarding

Guide Dogs is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children, young people and adults at risk of harm with whom we work. We expect all our employees and volunteers to fully share this commitment.

At Guide Dogs, we believe in fair and equitable hiring practices. A criminal record will not automatically disqualify an applicant from consideration for a position. Each case will be evaluated individually, taking into account the nature of the offense, its relevance to the role, and the time that has passed since the incident. We encourage all candidates to disclose relevant information, and we assure you that it will be handled confidentially and fairly.

Guide Dogs follow Safer Recruitment practices to ensure we are safeguarding the vulnerable people we work with. As part of this, we require a full work history with any gaps accounted for & a minimum of 2 professional referee details fully covering the past 5 years. If you are applying for a disclosure role, please note that you will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS check and sign up to the DBS update service.
