Applicants should be comfortable with public speaking and delivering sessions and leading group discussions. Applicants will need to be able to represent CAA in a professional manner and be highly presentable and capable of communicating clearly and working effectively with all age groups.

This requires that applicants are able to maintain a consistent line of communication with CAA team members via our cloud-based messaging system and attend meetings via remote communication platforms such as Zoom when required.

For this reason, the ideal candidate would have a background in education and existing networks within the sector, however this is not a must for a candidate.
This role is the perfect opportunity for anybody who is passionate about preventing antisemitism through education in a frontline role as a member of our education and outreach team, interacting with the public and helping us to improve our education initiatives.
