Overview
Regional Manager Home/Field Based (with travel across the North of England and occasional travel to London) About Us The Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) is a not-for-profit organisation that fights the causes and impact of poverty across the UK. We have built a network of over 400 small grassroots charitable organisations which enable us to learn from those who understand the true nature of poverty and work to make life better. Following a highly successful trial programme in the Midlands which resulted in nearly £400,000 in philanthropic donations and three significant policy projects, we have now received multimillion-pound government funding to roll our programme out in locations across Britain. We’re an award-winning organisation and studies have shown we are considered one of the most influential think tanks in the UK by two of the largest political parties. We’re now looking for a Regional Manager to oversee our activities in the North of England and help us to influence policy at the highest levels of government. The Benefits - Salary of £40,000 - £50,000 DOE - Workplace pension scheme - Impact poverty across the North of England - Make real change This is an engaging and exciting opportunity for a senior level charitable professional to take on a fresh challenge with an organisation that is changing government policies and the approach to poverty from the ground up.

Not only will you support and influence changes to public policy and the government agenda, but you will also be able to experience first-hand the changes that are made and how they impact lives.
