Remote Co-Director, Digital Consumer Rights & Policy

Company: The Centre for Digital Consumers
Apply for the Remote Co-Director, Digital Consumer Rights & Policy
Location: London
Job Description:

We are looking for a co-director to help lead the organisation and decide which problems we take on. Co-director is a working title. It is not a company directorship or a trusteeship, and it carries no legal duties or personal liability.

What difference will you make?

One person currently decides what we work on and signs off what we publish. A second director gives every judgement a second opinion, and gives us someone else who can speak for us to regulators and journalists.

What are we looking for?

  • Experience of consumer rights, digital policy, or running a small organisation.
  • Judgement about what is worth saying in public, and what is not.
  • A willingness to disagree with the other director, and to be disagreed with.

You do not need all three. Tell us which you bring, and what you would want help with. The role carries no legal duties, so we are looking for judgement and experience rather than board service. Tell us if you need anything changed about how you apply, or about how we would work together. Ask before you apply if that is easier, and it will not count against you.

What will you be doing?

  • Set the direction of the organisation, and decide which problems we take on.
  • Speak for us to regulators, funders, and journalists.
  • Read what we publish before it goes out, and hold the line on accuracy.
  • Meet the other director once a month, at a time that suits you both.

We are looking for experience of consumer rights, digital policy, or running a small organisation; judgement about what is worth saying in public; and a willingness to disagree with the other director, and to be disagreed with. You do not need all three.
