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.

About the Team:
The International Programmes Department is made up of four regions: East Africa, West Africa, Southern Africa, and South Asia; and three support teams: Programme Support and Knowledge team, the Programme Funding and Partnerships Team and the Programme Operations Team. The International Programmes Department delivers our work across Africa and South Asia focusing on quality programming including advocacy, learning and documentation.
About the Role:
The Senior Manager will manage a process through which Country Programmes (CPs) can access the human resources required to deliver their programme and project objectives effectively and efficiently. This will include working closely with CPs and regional offices to diagnose support needs and identify support options available. Additionally, the Manager will be expected to adopt a CP centred approach to decision making on support provisions and to manage an independent mechanism for quality assurance of the support provision to the CPs.

The Advisory and Support Hub Manager will be required to:
- Manage the process of piloting the model in one selected region, if required.
- Review the lessons learnt from piloting the model and make recommendations on further improvements that may be required.
- Coordinate the roll-out of the model across the organisation.

- Experience of working with institutions in low- and middle-income countries.
- Effective communication skills and demonstrated experience of managing and motivating others and driving change.
- Exceptional interpersonal skills and ability to work across cultures and to develop good relationships with diverse clients and international collaborators.
