Interim Head of Policy and Public Affairs
Women in Prison
6 month fixed term contract
£42,190 - £46,180 depending on location
Full time, compressed, or part time hours considered
Hybrid contract with ideally 1 -2 days per week in the London or Manchester office. There will be the need for occasional national travel
Are you driven to advocate for women facing marginalisation and exclusion, who have been let down by the systems that are there to support them?
Do you want to be part of a feminist organisation that challenges the systems that cause harm to women in England and Wales?
As we grow our team in our 40th year, we are looking for someone to develop a strong evidence base for alternatives to current policy and practice that criminalises women. You will lead on the development of policy positions, statements, and outputs, develop and lead a public affairs strategy that centres the voice of women in contact with the criminal justice system, and develop, build and contribute to authentic partnerships and relationships with key stakeholders, including those outside of the criminal justice system.
Women are a minority in the criminal justice system, which means their needs can often be overlooked. But we know that women in prison are five times more likely to have mental ill health than those in the general population, 95% of children must leave home when their mother goes to prison, and two in three women in prison are survivors of domestic abuse. Prison harms women and their families, and we want to change that.
Our services model alternatives to prison, supporting women in their communities to address the underlying issues that sweep them into contact with the criminal justice system in the first place. Through our campaigning, we focus on working to radically reduce the number of women who end up in prison.
If you would like to work at Women in Prison and can help us to drive our agenda forward, please apply.
For an informal conversation about this role, please contact our recruitment partner, Carroll Lloyd, Director, NFP on 07765 001 033 or email carroll.lloyd@nfpconsulting.co.uk.
Application is by way of CV and a Supporting Statement, which should outline your motivations for wanting to be our next Interim Head of Policy and Public Affairs and set out your credentials.
