Do you want to make a tangible different to the lives of children across England? Can you use your skills to be a catalyst for creating meaningful change? Are you ready to join a committed team, dedicated to giving children and young people a voice on the issues affecting them?
Now is the perfect time to join the Childrens Commissioners Office (CCo). Based on five years of listening to children, the Childrens Commissioner is taking childrens thoughts, opinions and ideas to decision makers, to ensure that the Government reflects childrens voices in the decisions that will affect them in years to come.
Joining the team is a chance to be involved in shaping childrens policy, making sure childrens voices are heard and being part of an exciting environment which puts childrens needs at the heart of everything we do.
The Childrens Commissioner is looking to fill a role in the Corporate Services team. The role will be based in Central London at 64 Victoria Street, SW1E 6QP.
The role is suitable for hybrid working, with up to 2 days a week working from home. This is a voluntary non-contractual arrangement and your office will be your contractual place of work. The number of days that anyone will be able to work from home will be determined primarily by business need but personal circumstances and other relevant circumstances will be taken into account. If you are successful, any opportunities for hybrid working will be discussed with you prior to taking up your post.
Selection for appointment to the Office of the Childrens Commissioner is on merit, on the basis of fair and open competition.
We are looking for a wide variety of people to take on our roles, however we would particularly welcome applications from care leavers or individuals with experience of being looked after by the state. We also actively encourage applicants from Black, Asian and other minority ethnic backgrounds. We welcome applications from both inside and outside the Civil Service.
