We inform the Great British Public on what is happening - both in front of and behind the scenes with research, writing and digging deep, so the public knows what is going on.
A serious interest in and knowledge about Brexit and Euroscepticism is vital for the role.
This is a full-time, ongoing and permanent position for a reliable, adaptable and motivated self-starter with strong and innovative research capabilities.

• Ability to research and draft blogs for our website and online publications.
• Previous political experience or work with campaigns or political parties would be useful.
• You should be a graduate – with at least a 2:1 degree from a good university, with an interest or background in British and EU politics.
Excellent communication skills are required to convey our message to not only politicians, but also the British public.
We work closely with other Eurosceptic campaigns so experience of cooperation and communication is key.
A good, relaxed sense of humour is essential.
You must be able to work on your own, while being part of a small team and work to a high standard.
Our office overlooks the River Thames, near the House of Commons.
