Education Advocacy Officer

For over twenty years, the Coalition for Racial Equality and Rights (CRER) has been at the forefront of anti-racism interventions in Scotland.

CRER are looking for a new team member to coordinate and deliver an anti-racist education advice and advocacy project. They will advocate for the rights of Black and minority ethnic young people affected by racism in schools by:

• Providing balanced advice and advocacy for parents and carers seeking support on these issues

• Developing resources

• Influencing education policy in Scotland from an anti-racist perspective

Due to the sensitive nature of this project, the post holder needs to have personal experience of facing racism. CRER is therefore applying an occupational requirement under the Equality Act 2010 to this post. Applicants must be members of a minority ethnic group which has been negatively impacted by racialisation.

Salary: £32,500 p.a. plus 8% employer pension contribution

Hours: 35 hours per week

Location: Hybrid/Glasgow
