Overview and Summary
We are seeking to appoint an Advocacy and Communications Officer – a vital role for our 70-strong coalition during an exciting period for our work.
CJC is a broad coalition of NGOs, trade unions and law firms, encompassing a range of political and thematic priorities, from workers’ rights and modern slavery, to climate and the environment, global justice and the rights of women and girls, children and indigenous peoples. But what brings us together is a shared commitment to ending corporate impunity for human rights abuses and environmental destruction: in line with this, collaborative work for change alongside our partners is at the heart of all we do.
We’re at a crucial point in a campaign which spans advocacy, public communications and engagement with businesses, and seeks to ensure the implementation of a ‘Business, Human Rights and Environment Act’ in the UK. This legislation would help end corporate abuses of human rights and the environment, and make it easier for victims to access justice. At an exciting juncture for the campaign, the successful applicant will play a central role in shaping it and driving it forward, working alongside our civil society partners to do so.
Please note, applicants must hold the right to work in the UK to be considered for this role.
CJC is an equal opportunities employer committed to refining anti-oppressive practises in its work. We particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in the business and human rights sector.
See attached document for a detailed JD and person specification
What we’re looking for
The successful candidate will be highly motivated and have a real commitment to campaign for change on corporate accountability for human rights abuses. You’ll be enthusiastic and full of ideas, able to juggle multiple deadlines and tasks, while being ready to show initiative and take ownership of your area of work.
You don’t need to be a policy expert on our issues, but you’ll need to have the ability to rapidly gain an understanding of what we work on and why, and advocate for these issues to Parliamentarians and civil servants.
Facilitating joint work alongside our coalition partners is fundamental to everything we do, so we’re looking for someone who already has experience of working in coalitions or in the not-for-profit sector - whether in the UK charity sector or elsewhere - and who will be at ease regularly communicating with other organisations and facilitating meetings which can have multiple organisations in attendance. We need someone who recognises and understands the value of civil society groups collaborating effectively, and is good communicator comfortable working with stakeholders at multiple levels.
You will update and ensure the delivery of the advocacy strategy for the campaign, leading regular calls with coalition partners, so it’s crucial that you’re comfortable with and enjoy collaborative work with others. You’ll drive forward our engagement with policy makers, thinking up strategies for engagement and potential approaches. You will be supported by a team and engaged Board, as well as coalition partners, but will be encouraged to take ownership of your areas of work and develop proposals for action.

Surrounded by 12 acres of beautiful woodland garden St Joseph's hospice cares for around 200 patients, and their families, every year from across a diverse geographical area, which includes Sefton, Liverpool and West Lancashire.
It is one of the oldest hospices in the country, for over 50 years the hospice has been passionate about providing high-quality, professional nursing care within a peaceful, home from home environment.
"My father-in-law spent the last few weeks of his life there and the care he and his family received was second to none. Being perfectly honest when my turn comes if I am not lucky enough to die peacefully in my sleep then this is where I would want to be.".
All of the invaluable services the hospice provides, which include bereavement services, are entirely free of charge to patients and their families despite costing around £10k per day to run, so the hospice is largely dependent on fundraised income.
We are looking for a committed and enthusiastic Community & Events Fundraiser to join the ambitious and dedicated Fundraising Team at the hospice.
The Role
As a Community & Events Fundraiser you will be responsible for developing and implementing a programme of vibrant, commercially successful fundraising events. Duties will include:
- Managing community fundraising and building relationships with donors to maximise income.
- Recruiting and managing the Fundraising volunteers.
- Supporting the Income & Business Development Manager in delivering the annual objectives and targets.
- Attending third party fundraising events to offer support and promote the hospice within the community
The Person
To be considered for this exciting opportunity you will have excellent people skills with the ability to enthuse and motivate others. Proven experience of fundraising and events would be desirable; however, we are keen to hear from people with transferable backgrounds including volunteering, business development, sales or account management.
You will have a creative and proactive approach to all areas of work, with the capability to successfully lead a team by example and collaborate with others. You will also have superb numeracy and planning skills with a flair for social media.
With strong written and verbal communication skills, and a passion for fundraising, community and events, this could be the next rewarding step in your fundraising career.
Why St Joseph’s Hospice?
This is an incredibly exciting time to join the small but mighty fundraising team to really make your mark and be part of setting the fundraising agenda at St Joseph’s. This is a role with scope for development for the right candidate. The Hospice also offers a fantastic range of benefits including:
- Employer contributory pension scheme
- 6 weeks annual leave
- Access to an Employee Assistance Programme
- Free onsite parking
If this sounds like the type of environment that would suit you for the next phase of your career, then get in touch! The role is permanent and full-time. Whilst this role is based at the hospice in Thornton, you will be out and about meeting potential donors and supporters therefore a driving license and access to a vehicle is essential. There is also flexibility to work some of the time at home. The role will involve attendance at events - some of which occur out of hours – in the evenings and at weekends – in the local area.
If this sounds like the type of role and charity that could suit the next phase of your career, then do get in touch. To register your interest please apply here, or for more information contact Charlie or Leanne at Charity Horizons.
Please note: If you would like to submit an application or express your interest in an alternative format, such as audio or video upload, please contact either Charlie or Leanne who will be happy to advise on this.

Our client is a conservation charity for everyone who cares about nature in Sussex. They focus on protecting the wonderfully rich natural life that is found across our towns, countryside and coast. By working alongside local people they create opportunities for us all to connect with nature and for nature to thrive in even the most unlikely places.
They are now in a critical decade for change to protect and restore nature with the help of more people taking action for wildlife. Now is the time for an ambitious action plan to match the scale and urgency of the challenges we are facing. Their new Strategic Plan – Their Wild Sussex – was launched in April and sets out their vision and commitment to turning the tide for wildlife so that by 2030, nature in Sussex will be in recovery.
To deliver their new strategic aims, they have recently completed a comprehensive restructure of the charity to align to their goals. This restructure has generated a suite of new roles and opportunities which will enable them to achieve their ambitions of restoring and protecting at least 30% of Sussex land and sea for nature, inspiring one in four people in Sussex to take meaningful action for wildlife, building a stronger more inclusive and diverse organisation and becoming a net zero and climate resilient organisation.
In order to encourage diversity and inclusivity within the environment sector, they particularly welcome applications from people who have an ethnically or geographically diverse background, who are non-graduates and/or are living in economically deprived areas.
