Principal Legal Adviser (Maternity Cover)

Uplift is a campaigning and research organisation helping to move the UK towards a fossil fuel-free future and to support a just transition away from oil and gas. We have coordinated and implemented major successful campaigns and developed cutting-edge campaign, communications and research tactics.

We have grown rapidly as an organisation over the last three years and are currently looking for a Principal Legal Adviser (Maternity cover) to drive forward opportunities for strategic legal and policy advocacy. This is an exciting opportunity to help build an ambitious movement to phase out oil and gas extraction in the UK.

As Principal Legal Adviser (Maternity cover), you will collaborate with Uplift’s team and key partners to ensure that our collective work is underpinned by robust and forward-thinking legal and policy analysis. From identifying strategic litigation opportunities to advancing law reform advocacy, this is a diverse role that is key to our work.
