SUMMARY Position Title: Head of Spacemaking and Operations Level: Level 6 Pay:£40, 000 - 46, 000 (FTE yearly) Reports to: Director of Finance, HR and Operations Location: Liberation centre Brixton, London (New office in Brixton)/ Remote working within the UK with at least 3 days work from our office (Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays) Contract: Full time (40hrs/weekly), 2-year Fixed Term contract. Start date: As soon as possible Benefits: TAA laptop and phone, (employee assistance and health cash package including staff supervision, counselling, dental, optical care and more.) The Advocacy Academy is an activist youth movement. We serve as the political home for grassroots youth organising and the catalyst for collective action. The lives of the young people we work alongside have been directly shaped by living in an unjust world, and we exist to turn their anger into action. Young people are often the catalysts for major social change, from the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement, to the Soweto Uprising mobilising young people to resist the apartheid regime's education policies, to the Sunrise Movement redrawing the electoral map across America, and more recently encampments and protests across the world protesting the genocide in Palestine. How successfully they achieve real and lasting change depends on whether they are organised and whether they have the right strategy and tactics to be effective. We want youth organising to be enshrined in the UK for generations to come, and for young people to have tangible political power to influence national policy. That s why we have launched two national coalitions, one around climate, and the other around gender. Each will train organisations across the country to become youth organisers and work together to bring 100 young people together to identify the strategy and tactics needed to achieve change. These young leaders will organise others and work collectively to build a campaign which shakes the status quo. We are now looking for a Head of Spacemaking & Operations who believes in this vision and can ensure that TAA s Liberation Centre is safe, fully operational, and intentionally designed as a welcoming, accessible, and inclusive environment.
