Senior policy advisor

King’s Cross, London (with the benefit of hybrid working)

The Evangelical Alliance is the largest and oldest body representing the UK’s two million evangelical Christians. For over 175 years, we have been bringing Christians together and helping them to listen to, and be heard by, government, media and society.

We aim to serve, strengthen and unite the evangelical church and in so doing develop networks of evangelical Christians to encourage and promote unity for the purpose of effective local mission.

The advocacy team works to engage and represent evangelicals in public life, giving voice to their priorities and concerns and speaking into corridors of power.

We are looking for an exceptional candidate to join the team to provide expert input into our policy work. You will work on key issues relating to religious freedom, rights and responsibilities in society, and equalities legislation as well as other issues we are involved in. You will be confident drafting policy submissions for consultations and calls for evidence, producing briefings for parliamentarians, and advising the team on how the Evangelical Alliance should engage in a range of policy areas.

You will have a strong understanding of how the UK parliament and legislative process works, and thrive on using your skills to ensure the voices of evangelicals are heard in the corridors of power. You will have an eye for detail and an intuitive grasp of the impact of specific policies, as at its core this role is about understanding, analysing and influencing policy and legislation on behalf of the UK’s evangelical Christians.

This exciting role is full of opportunities for growth and development, and will require energy and creativity in working with the team to implement plans for this next season.
