Are you highly driven, determined, self-motivated and have a passion to create a better world for farmed animals? If so, we want to hear from you. At the RSPCA, we believe all animals deserve a good life. We work for the benefit of every animal – whether companion, wild, farmed, or animals used in science. Choose a career with us and make a positive difference to the lives of animals.

We are looking for a new team member as a Senior Scientific and Policy Officer (SSPO) to lead our work on aquaculture, where you will work with a dedicated team of other leading farm animal welfare experts. 

One of the key roles of the SSPO Aquaculture is lead responsibility for the development of the RSPCA's higher welfare standards for Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout. These standards have impact both nationally and internationally, including under the RSPCA's own farm assurance scheme - RSPCA Assured.

It is a key role within the Farm Animals Department, which is within the RSPCA's Science and Policy Group.

Working hours: 35 hours per week - Monday to Friday. 

Hybrid role: You will work from home and, on occasion, from the RSPCAs office in Horsham, West Sussex: the expected commitment is at least one day per month in our Horsham office. 

Contract: Permanent

We think this role's going to be popular and are expecting to attract high interest so we strongly encourage early applications to avoid missing out - closing date is  the 8th of February.

Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing farmed animal sectors in the UK, yet it remains largely unregulated. Without a specific legal framework for the farming or slaughter of farmed fish, these animals need a champion - that champion is you.

As our SSPO Aquaculture, you will be driving tangible change and leading the way in farmed fish welfare within the world's oldest animal welfare charity.

A key part of the role is also to provide a support function to RSPCA Assured, as you will support the scheme for the assurance of both salmon and trout.

Without this work, the standards for these species would cease to exist, leaving millions of animals without a "voice" and the industry without a benchmark for excellence.

Your impact will include:

• Defining Excellence:You will write and evolve the welfare standards that dictate how salmon and trout are raised and treated - ensuring they are leading the way and spearheading positive change.
• High Level Advocacy:You will represent the RSPCA in Parliament, at international conferences, and in the media.
• Industry Transformation:You will proactively engage with key retailers, governments, likeminded NGOs and other key stakeholders to push the boundaries of what is possible in fish welfare.
• Thought Leadership:You will provide technical expertise to key stakeholders nationally and internationally, including Eurogroup for Animals.

Innovation: You will explore new technologies and opportunities to ensure the RSPCA remains at the front edge of improving the lives of farmed fish.

We are looking for a visionary who is equally at home on a farm as they are presenting to policymakers. The post holder must be highly driven, determined, passionate, self motivated, and have a ‘change the world' mentality. We are looking for someone who genuinely wants to make a significant impact and a large, lasting change to the lives of farmed aquatic animals.

To be successful within this role, you must have:

• A high level of farmed fish production and welfare knowledge.
• Hands-on experience of working with farm animals in a commercial environment.
• Project management experience.
• Experience of developing standards.
• Excellent communication, relationship and influencing skills.
• Experience of presenting to the media, government bodies, and at large scale conferences.
• The ability to navigate internal and external challenges with a self-motivated, "world-changing" mindset.

Successful candidates for certain RSPCA roles will need to undergo a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.

Applicants must have the legal right to work in the UK - We are unable to sponsor visas at RSPCA

Interviews will be held in person on the 24th and the 25th of February.

We want to ensure we do all we can to give you a positive candidate experience through our...

Recruitment Pack

Children’s Worker (2/3 FTE) &

Families / Adults Worker (1/3 FTE)

St Andrew the Great is seeking to appoint a Children’s Worker to oversee ministry amongst
0-11s. This is an opportunity for a Bible-loving and well-organised Christian man or woman to
work  prayerfully  with  a  range  of  leaders  to  support  evangelism  and  discipleship  amongst
children, in partnership with parents.

At the same time, we are also seeking to appoint a Families / Adults Worker to participate in
ministry amongst ‘city’ adults (this covers parents and other adults who are not part of HUB
/  iHUB  /  Focus  ministries).  This  is  an  opportunity  for  a  Bible-loving  and  well-organised
Christian man or woman to work prayerfully with a range of leaders to support evangelism
and discipleship amongst adults.

Applications may be made to either one of these posts, or both together.

About us

St  Andrew  the  Great  (StAG)  has  a  diverse  congregation  which  reflects  our  location  in
Cambridge city centre. We mainly comprise four groups of people: undergraduates, 20-30s,
internationals, and ‘city’ members (adults who are not part of the other groups, plus under-
18s). That said, our motto for all we do is the same:

The gospel to Cambridge; gospel workers to the world.

As a church, we depend upon God in prayer and put teaching the Bible at the heart of all we
do as we believe it equips us with all we need in living for His glory. In the past 25 years, there
have been three church “grafts” to other local parishes and, most recently, a church plant to
Huntingdon in 2018. We are a member of ReNew, and the PCC has passed a resolution in line
with the House of Bishops’ declaration and receives additional oversight from the Bishop of
Ebbsfleet.

Page 1 of 6

About the Children’s Worker role

The vision for our children’s work is that children would grow in a real and personal faith in
the Lord Jesus; we do this by supporting parents in their ministry to their children as the
primary Bible teachers and through faithful, engaging Bible teaching to the children in an
age-appropriate way on Sundays when the church family gathers.

StAG has over 140 under 11s in the church family, and we’ll typically see 90-100 at one of
our six children’s groups & three creches over our two Sunday morning services.

The role holder will work under the immediate oversight of the Associate Vicar and will have
administrative oversight of all the 0-11s children’s ministry as well as responsibility for all
the Bible teaching that happens within it.

Responsibilities for the Children’s Worker

There are three areas of focus: Bible teaching and evangelism, caring for and training
leaders, and partnering with parents.

1.  Bible teaching and evangelism

•  Developing a robust and effective curriculum and accompanying resources.
•  Planning the teaching for children’s groups and writing session briefs.
•  Growing, adapting or improving opportunities for regular outreach which currently

includes Christmas parties as well as a one-day holiday-club-style evangelistic event.
•  Depending on experience and aptitude, planning the teaching for the children's talk

slots in our Sunday morning services and coaching speakers before and after
delivery.

•  Depending on experience and aptitude, contributing to all age services, which might

include occasional preaching.

•  Speaking at events for local schools, such as Christian Unions and events in the

church building.

2.  Overseeing leaders

•  Recruiting, training and supporting leaders in teaching the Bible to children.
•  Maintaining excellent standards in safeguarding.
•  Running and coordinating training sessions for leaders, including at the monthly

prayer meeting for children’s leaders.

•  Setting an example of teaching and engaging with children.
•  Supporting the groups in giving effective feedback to one another.
•  Organising and managing volunteer rotas for crèches, actions and additional helpers

for Sunday groups and other possible one-off events (e.g. Day Away).

•  Pastoral care and support for leaders through regular meetings and catch ups
•  Connecting with the wider youth and children’s ministry scene in Cambridge, East

Anglia, and the Southeast of England, to give and receive support in youth ministry.

Page 2 of 6

3.  Partnering with parents

•  Partnering with families to understand how the StAG children’s ministry can best
support them including meeting with the parents’ advisory group once a term.
•  Maintaining and developing opportunities to envision and equip families in their

family discipleship (e.g. Families Together Lunch, termly training, joint leaders and
parents prayer meetings)

•  Promoting partnership between parents and leaders through communication

channels, socials, hosting, culture-setting, etc.

•  Regular prayer for StAG families.
