Join CBM UK as our Disability Inclusion Advisor and generate new business opportunities.
For over 115 years, CBM has been transforming lives around the world. We work with local partners, making sure people with disabilities in some of the world’s poorest communities have access to healthcare, education and a future where they can thrive. As an organisation based on Christian values, we welcome staff of all faiths and none in our work to build an inclusive world in which all people with disabilities enjoy their human rights and achieve their full potential.
CBM UK’s Disability Inclusion Advisor will be responsible for generating new business opportunities and delivering disability inclusion technical advice to mainstream organisations and key stakeholders in the UK. The role will also contribute to ensuring the advisory programme of the wider CBM Global Federation is of sound quality, appropriately resourced and promoted both internally and externally. While being able to develop and deliver technical advice is the most important element, we are particularly seeking a strong understanding of, and preferably experience in delivering or advising on, inclusive education.
Key activities and responsibilities include:
- Work with and alongside CBM Global Country Teams and the disability movement to deliver high quality disability inclusion advice on policies and programmes, change facilitation and capacity strengthening.
- Work with UK and Global colleagues to generate new business in order to build the technical advisory function of the organisation through: securing and delivering fee for service advisory work in UK, technical support to accessing funding for delivery by other advisory teams and partners, and co-delivery on wider IAG network advisory projects.
- Lead on stakeholder and partnership management to maintain excellent servicing of advisory clients.
- Ensure appropriate systems and processes are in place, and contract outputs are delivered to a high standard for effective operational delivery.
- Contribute to the evidence and MEAL base for disability inclusive practice.
- Contribute to the peer learning approach of the wider IAG network and strengthen the advisory capacity of the CBM UK team.
