NYAS is a children’s rights charity that supports and empowers care-experienced children and young people across the UK. We believe that every child or young person experiencing care should have the same chance to live a happy, healthy and rewarding life as their peers.

In this role you will be responsible for supporting NYAS’ policy and research programme which will involve working closely with our partners in academic institutions on research projects and working with students to produce quality research on a range of topics. You will identify trends and issues to improve public policy and legislation.

You will also be responsible for managing and coordinating our volunteer campaign advisors who are care-experienced young people who support us and help shape our campaigns programme. You will also help strengthen the involvement of care-experienced children and young people in decision making across NYAS.

You will also have the opportunity to engage with alliances and networks across the UK to strengthen our influencing position and activity.

To be considered you must be passionate about making a difference. You must also have excellent research, analytical and writing skills.
