Local Campaigns Officer – Scotland (maternity cover)

Have you had experience of campaigning? Have you a proven track record of awareness raising in local communities? Can you influence and inform professionals on how to respond to child abuse and neglect? If the answer is “Yes, yes, yes” we want to hear from you.

The NSPCC is wishing to recruit a Local Campaigns Officer for Scotland (maternity cover) to support our campaigning work. We want to reach into local communities in order to influence the general public, parents, young people and professional networks. To this end, you will lead a number of projects, reporting into the Local Campaigns Manager for Scotland.

You will have experience of shaping and delivering local and community based campaigns, encouraging public and professional responses to child neglect, consulting parents on how they respond to child sexual abuse, or working with a local agency on raising awareness of child sexual exploitation.

We are looking for someone who is highly organised and solution focussed. As a team player, you will work in partnership with both local NSPCC services and other locally based organisations. You are someone who is proactive, persistent, and thrives on managing a varied and busy workload; you will be happy to work across Scotland and willing to travel.
