Vacancy: Head of Advocacy and Policy

Deadline: 9 am on Monday, 30 January 2023
Picture
Tax Justice UK (TJ-UK) is building momentum for progressive tax reform. In the run up to a highly contested 2024  general election tax will be high on the political agenda. Your role will be to use this key political moment to win significant progressive tax reforms.  You don’t need to be an expert in tax policy, but you do need to be hungry for change, and able to convince people in positions of power to listen to our messages and make changes.  

Tax Justice UK has a track record of securing campaign wins, helping to force three government u-turns in 12 months. We have built strong relationships with parliamentarians, policy makers and a network of influential think tanks and organisations. We also have excellent relationships with many influential media outlets, regularly securing extensive media coverage on tax justice issues. 

We’re looking for a savvy political operator with a track record to achieve political change and a commitment to tax justice. You will be confident in shaping policy, building good working relationships across all political parties and a strong team player.
