As a member of the Disability Charities Consortium (DCC), comprising of nine national disability charities, RNIB is looking for a Secretariat Coordinator to support the DCC's joint work.

This role will collaborate with colleagues across the DCC on policy tasks, input to the UK Covid Inquiry, organising and attending meetings, and supporting the DCC's smooth running, with a line manager within RNIB.

What you will be doing -

Supporting a powerful consortium of major UK disability charities, you'll work closely with policy leads to develop DCC letters and briefings. You'll also link in with a newly formed group of communications leads and support regular meetings of the CEO group.

You'll connect regularly with the UK Government's Disability Unit Stakeholder team, and make sure the DCC prepares effectively ahead of Ministerial meetings.

The postholder will have a particular role supporting the DCC's participation in the official UK Covid Inquiry, with the aim that the experiences of disabled people, and the lessons which need to be learned, come through strongly in the Inquiry's findings.

Here's what you will need -

With a strong attention to detail and excellent writing skills, you'll have experience of analysing policy material, and drafting briefings and letters. You'll be able to collate input from numerous colleagues to draft high quality outputs.

You'll be comfortable creating agendas, and managing practical arrangements for meetings, taking on some routine administrative tasks, such as note-taking and finding meeting times in busy diaries, coupled with the professional skills to support high level meetings with government.

You may be in a policy, public affairs or research role looking for a step up or a fresh challenge, or you may bring skills from a role in which you have coordinated written work or meetings within a high performing group or team.

You will be both comfortable working independently and being part of a collaborative group of DCC colleagues feeding into government on disability-related policy development.

This role can be worked on a flexible basis where there is the requirement to attend our London based office in Kings Cross at least once per week.

In return

RNIB prides itself on being a great place to work with a range of flexible benefits and a positive, progressive culture. We offer a competitive salary, a stimulating and supportive working environment, a flexible work life balance environment, as well as a benefits package including:

26 days holiday per year (plus bank holidays), which increase with service, plus one Grace day per year. RNIB Rewards - Our employee discounts platform gives you access to offers at over in-store and online retailers. In-house training and development opportunities, including apprenticeships and management development programmes. Flexible working arrangements. Contributory pension scheme.

If you are having trouble applying online or would like more information, please contact us on .

We actively encourage applicants with lived experience of sight loss to apply for this role.

If you would like to apply for this great job opportunity, please review the documents linked below, then select "Apply Online" at the bottom of this page and complete our application form, telling us how you meet the Specialist Skills, Knowledge and Experience criteria (Section 1 of the person specification in the Job Description). Guidance for completion can be found on each page of the application form.

We're the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) and we're here for everyone affected by sight loss. Working for us means working for one of the UK's biggest charities, supporting almost two million people living with sight loss in the UK.

RNIB is leading the creation of a world where there are no barriers for people with sight loss. One of our key priorities is to ask people to see sight loss differently, reversing inaccurate perceptions and changing public behaviours so everyone expects equal participation from people with sight loss and the creation of a fully accessible society.

One of our core values is to be led by blind and partially sighted people and we involve our customers in recruitment. Please be advised that your anonymised application may be shared internally with those involved in the recruitment process.

RNIB is committed to equality of opportunity and to promoting and celebrating the diversity of its staff and volunteers. We welcome everyone's contribution and are proud of our status as a Disability Confident Leader. We welcome applications from people with sight loss and talented people from all sections of the community who share our values.

We do reserve the right to close this role early in the event of a high number of applications.
