UNISON is committed to improving the working lives of its members and securing equality and rights for their families and communities. This role is at the heart of our mission - helping to develop and support the research, policy interventions and projects that will enable us to meet our objectives.

**The role**

Working with the Regional Management Team and Policy Officer in Northern Ireland your role will involve undertaking research, policy and project work in accordance with the Regional Plan. This translates into a wide range of activity supporting the union internally and externally. It involves work with the senior team, the whole staff team, senior union activists and, where appropriate, direct assistance to branches.

- supporting both national and regional UNISON policy and bargaining objectives, including from an equality and human rights perspective;
- drafting responses to NI Government and, where appropriate, UK and international, consultation documents, calls for evidence and draft legislation - with a particular emphasis on equality and human rights - and disseminating a concise summary of UNISON’s responses through the activist base to relevant external organisations and, where appropriate, through the media;
- supporting UNISON’s democratic structures, including providing briefings for branch and regional delegations to UNISON and wider trade union conferences and providing regular updates for UNISON NI Regional Committee and Regional Council;
- contributing to the development of key UNISON policy across all our objectives and providing staff, activists and branches with concise, accessible guidance;
- liaising with employers and external organisations, political parties and the Irish Congress of Trade Unions as appropriate;
- liaising with UNISON HQ and, in particular, UNISON’s Policy Department as appropriate;
- keeping the UNISON team updated on relevant developments in EU, ETUC, ILO, UN treaty monitoring bodies and wider programmes, policy and legislation as it affects membership and public services in Northern Ireland;
- undertaking lobbying and advocacy as and when appropriate;
- contributing to the co-ordination of UNISON NI strategies on equality and human rights across our organising, bargaining and campaigning objectives and programmes of work;
- working with our wide range of allies and partners in the equality and human rights field;
- assisting with developing UNISON NI’s unique partnership programme - designed to improve service delivery and the working lives of UNISON members;
- supporting UNISON’s recruitment, organising, bargaining and campaign activities;
- engaging with the print and broadcast media as appropriate.

**Unison’s Aims**
