Are you passionate about helping children fulfil their potential and build a better Scotland? We are too!

This is a unique opportunity to lead Children’s Parliament, an internationally renowned and respected organisation promoting children’s human rights, as we look to recruit an inspirational and highly skilled Director.

We want someone who can lead and develop a passionate team of expert practitioners in raising awareness and understanding of children’s rights amongst children and adults. Together we need to help them understand how we can improve children’s lives, support the people and organisations who support our children, and help to implement the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Incorporation) (Scotland) Act 2024.

The Director will lead a Senior Leadership Team, consisting of the Head of Programmes, Head of Operations and Senior Programme Manager. The Director will inspire our talented and dedicated team, using their professional networks to advocate for children as the face and voice of Children’s Parliament, and realise the opportunities we have to change lives for the better. They will work with partners and stakeholders to drive culture change in the environments in which children live, learn and play and support a new chapter for Scotland’s human rights journey following the UNCRC incorporation for which we successfully campaigned this year.

We are seeking a dynamic and effective leader who will stand up and champion children’s rights. They will need to demonstrate their experience in senior leadership roles, including strategic planning, financial oversight, leadership, and risk management.

The ability to support and drive a diverse and skilled team is essential. Having experience of rights-based, creative practice will be important in being able to provide ongoing support, expertise and guidance across Children’s Parliament’s programmes. A comprehensive understanding of the political and policy landscape for children's and wider human rights in Scotland is vital as is the ability to effectively engage with a range of stakeholders.

The Director will need to demonstrate their belief that children are equal and valuable citizens. As a leader, their passion should shine through their words and actions, backed up with the expertise to navigate the challenges of ensuring Children’s Parliament continues as an internationally recognised beacon of good practice and inspiration.
