At the national level there is a crucial need for insights from people with lived experience of crime, addiction and homelessness to inform system reform as this voice is currently almost wholly absent.

At the same time User Voice has an unrivalled and significant footprint across the country engaging with the hardest to reach people, through elected and trained service users who can provide the information to fill this void.

There is no one better placed to identify what works or what doesn’t, and to be part of identifying the solution than people with current and recent experience of the system. More significantly, there has never been a time when it has been more important and timely that service users are given the platform to be heard, and to be part of transforming services and systems.

You will work closely with the Founder/CEO to lead User Voice’s peer research projects to both influence fundamental changes to the policy and public debate, to innovate new services, and to reform systems.

Furthermore, you will have experience communicating the results to affect policy and practice and a strong commitment to the values of User Voice.

In return, we offer company progression and support throughout your successful career with User Voice.

We particularly welcome applications from ex-offenders and from all sections of the community regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age or disability.
