The Policy and Campaigns Officer will play a key role in delivering the ambitions of the Forces Children’s Rights Charter, driving change to improve the lives of babies, children and young people from Armed Forces and veteran families.

You will plan and deliver policy influencing, public affairs and public-facing campaigns, helping decision-makers better understand the unique experiences of forces children and why these must be reflected in law, policy and practice. Grounded in strong evidence and co-production, the role ensures children’s lived experience directly shapes influencing activity.

Working closely with colleagues across learning and development, communications and participation, you will research, write and represent Forces Children Scotland externally, while managing competing priorities and contributing positively to a small, collaborative team.
