About the role
Shape evidence-led solutions to tackle systemic racism
We are recruiting two Policy Officers to support the development of evidence-led approaches to tackling racial inequality.
Working as part of our Policy and Practice team, you will contribute to research, policy development and influencing work. This includes supporting evidence reviews, contributing to report writing, working with partners across the voluntary and statutory sectors, and helping to co-produce solutions with people with lived experience.
You will also support our wider influencing activity, including using social media and other channels to promote change and engage key audiences.
This is an opportunity for someone with experience of research or policy work, and a strong understanding of racial inequality, to play a direct role in shaping work that informs practice and policy at a national level.

At the Race Equality Foundation, we are proud to be an anti-racist organisation and an equal-opportunities employer. We are committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels respected, valued, and able to be their authentic self.
We particularly welcome applications from people from Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic backgrounds, people with disabilities, neurodivergent people, LGBTQ+ communities, and those with lived experience of racial inequality or marginalisation.
We provide reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process and employment. Please contact us if you need the job description or application materials in an alternative format (for example, large print or accessible PDF) or any adjustment during the interview process.
