Job Description

About the Trade Justice MovementThe Trade Justice Movement (TJM) is a UK coalition of organisations advocating for trade justice, including trade unions, aid agencies, environment and human rights campaigns, Fair Trade organisations, and faith and consumer groups. TJM is supported by 60 member organisations with millions of individual members. Together, we call for trade justice, with the rules weighted to benefit people and planet. TJM has led advocacy to ensure a wide range of political parties, parliamentary committees and journalists raise concerns about the UKs current provisions for democratic scrutiny of trade policy. We have played a central role in high-profile campaigns calling for change in the trade system: stopping some deals completely, critiquing specific provisions and proposing alternative approaches. We play an important role in supporting politicians, the media and other civil society organisations in developing their understanding of and ability to engage in trade debates.Following the Brexit vote, international trade became one of the governments top priorities, and has received a huge amount of public and media interest. The UK has a unique opportunity to develop trade policy which helps lead the fight against climate change. However, the governments proposed trade deals risk undermining climate goals.To date there is no clear strategy to ensure that trade deals are aligned with climate objectives. TJM has developed analysis and policy proposals that could allow this to happen. This role will help us to make the best use of these resources to ensure that they have a high profile in media debates and that civil society organisations are equipped to act on the issues.About the roleThe Senior Communications Advisers role is to raise the profile of TJMs work on trade and climate change:

  • Develop a strategy and help TJM to build our reputation for strong expertise and analysis in trade and climate policy.
  • Lead TJMs communications on trade and climate change with civil society, the media and online.
  • Convene TJMs network of partner organisations and develop new relationships so that an increased number of organisations advocate in trade and climate policy in partnership with TJM.
  • Support TJMs influencing work within key civil service departments including Cabinet Office, BEIS, DIT and Defra and with the aim of influencing the UKs approach to COP26 and beyond.
    • Working with a small team, you will need both a strong ability to develop innovative approaches in the areas identified, manage your time and work plan and to be proactive in developing networks. This is an exciting opportunity to make a big impact as the UK develops its independent trade policy and hosts COP26.Role DescriptionTrade and Climate Communications Strategy

  • Build TJMs media profile and networks, including through regular press releases, developing opportunities to place opinion pieces, and increasing TJMs social media presence.
  • Establish effective, regular communications with member and partner organisations.
  • Maintain TJMs web content on this issue.
    • Convening Civil Society Organisations
  • Provide opportunities for civil society organisations to collaborate and advocate in this area, including through regular meetings, joint letters and engagement with civil service departments.
