About you

Great campaigners come from all different backgrounds. You may not have all the attributes we’re looking for – but if this is your dream job, we’d like you to get in touch.

A great fit could be a highly skilled professional with a track record of delivering impactful change and, importantly, a demonstrable passion for protecting civil liberties – especially privacy and freedom of expression. You’ll likely have a high level of interest in working on new and emerging technologies.

Ideally, you’ll have significant experience working in a campaigns capacity, and significant experience managing people and projects in a comparable environment that relied on your expertise on civil liberties, surveillance or technology issues. You’ll be familiar with key issues in the area. You’ll also have excellent knowledge of British politics and UK parliamentary procedures, a strong network of contacts in Westminster and significant experience campaigning for change in parliament in order to maximise our political impact.

You’ll be at ease working on a strictly non-partisan, cross-party basis and grounding our campaign strategies in human rights and liberal principles. You’ll also embody our principles of equality, respect and accountability.
