Dear Candidate, 
Thank you for your interest in the solicitor role at the Black Equity Organisation. 
The role will be a stimulating and inspiring opportunity for an experienced equality and discrimination lawyer to work pro actively and strategically to use the law as a tool for change. 

BEO is a civil rights charity that was set up to challenge and dismantle systemic racism. We work with Black communities by using campaigning, policy and research in conjunction with the law to effect meaningful change. 
Legal services are central to BEO. We are therefore looking for someone of 4yrs PQE who has experience in social welfare, human rights, public and administration law and who seeks an opportunity to use those skills specifically in the area of challenging systemic racism. 

In the last year we have been developing our relationships with partner organisations, ranging from community groups, our stakeholder law firms, NGOs and law firms experienced in equality and discrimination law, to deliver legal services. The role holder will be required to build on and expand these relationships so that BEO can offer quality legal advice to Back communities in the nations and regions across the United Kingdom. 
We are building our internal legal team so that we can provide targeted legal support to Black communities. We are looking for someone to work with the Director of Legal Services and Policy to ensure that high quality legal advice, support and representation are the hallmark of BEO. 

Apart from delivering targeted legal advice and representation and identifying and running strategic litigation cases, the role holder will be required to think creatively to assist in fundraising and campaigning to develop a sustainable legal service. BEO does not have a Legal Aid Agency contract so self funds all legal work. BEO is a small team, so the role holder must have the skills and confidence to work on their own initiative as well as with members of other teams in BEO. 

About You-
We are looking for someone who is excited about being part of a team that will build a legal service and who can work with Black communities and be guided by them. 
You will also be able to demonstrate that you are aware that Black communities are not homogeneous and you will bring this understanding to the way that you approach your work and interact with clients, our partners and community organisations. 

Your qualities will include an understanding that intersectionality is relevant in all that we do at BEO and that your assessment of how we use the law will be seen through that lens. 

You will be someone who has lived experience of or insight and comprehension of the impact of racism on all aspects of the lives of members of Black communities. 

In return we offer flexible, hybrid working from day one, a 5% employer pension contribution, a generous leave, maternity and parental leave package together with a strong focus on wellbeing and the chance to be part of the task of dismantling structural racism

About RLS 

RLS is a UK charity and a non-profit company in Greece (AMKE). 

Refugee Legal Support works in solidarity with people who migrate. We operate in the UK, France and Greece, promoting and protecting rights through legal support, casework, litigation, engagement, training and partnerships. We advocate for safe migration and oppose discriminatory immigration systems and policies.

RLS has held a legal aid contract in the UK since 2023. 

About the Afghan Pro Bono Initiative (APBI)

The Afghan Pro Bono Initiative is a specialist casework project delivered by RLS with funding and pro bono assistance from 14 leading commercial law firms. It is a project delivered in partnership with SPI. 

Firm pro bono lawyers are trained and supervised by the project’s two full-time supervising lawyers so that they can then assist with legal casework.

APBI has two core components. The team delivers legal information and support to and within the Afghan community, working together with the Community Engagement and Research Lead to ensure wide access. While the project also provides high quality legal representation in a range of cases for this community. This includes family reunion, the ARAP scheme, the Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme and others. 

APBI then aims to respond to the increased need for legal information, advice and representation of Afghan nationals and their family members forced to seek protection and reunion with family in the United Kingdom following the Taliban takeover. The project is now going into its 3rd year, and won the Most Effective Pro Bono Partnership Award at the Law Works Pro Bono Awards in 2022 as well as being nominated and commended for numerous other awards in 2022 and 2023. 

The casework of this project feeds into strategic research, policy and advocacy efforts to make existing ‘safe’ routes to protection (in particular refugee family reunion and resettlement schemes) more accessible and effective, advocate for their expansion and defend the fundamental rights of people on the move by influencing policy and decision making. 

Litigation arising out of the project is actively pursued (where eligible) under RLS’s legal aid contract to push for better decision-making, secure results for individuals and pursue improvements in the relevant law, policy and practices.

Do you feel motivated to help victims of stalking? Do you want to shape the future of our response to stalking, harassment and personal safety? Do you have resilience and flexibility, to meet the demands this role brings, and enjoy working in a sharing and learning environment?

Charity People are proud to be partnering with the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, the UK's founding personal safety charity and leading authority on stalking, to recruit a Senior Services and Development Lead.

The Suzy Lamplugh Trust was born out of the tragic story of Suzy Lamplugh, a 25-year-old estate agent who went missing whilst at work in 1986, was never found, and was eventually declared deceased in 1993. The Trust was set up in Suzy's name and continues to be a pioneer in reducing the risk and prevalence of abuse, aggression and violence - with a specific focus on stalking and harassment - through education, campaigning, policy and support.

A growing charity, the Suzy Lamplugh Trust delivers high value impact. The Stalking Helpline offers support and advice to thousands of victims of stalking every year and bespoke advocacy teams work closely with partners and stakeholders across the Violence Against Women and Girls' sector, criminal justice system, and both statutory and non-statutory services to ensure people live a life free from abuse and fear.

The Senior Services and Development Lead role is about making a difference, supporting the most vulnerable, standing up against what is wrong, driving systemic change, and holding decision makers to account. The team work hard so beneficiaries sleep better at night, families can reunite at the end of the working day, and victims of harassment and stalking can regain control of their situations.

• Lead on the National Stalking Helpline, National Advocacy Service which offers support and advice to thousands of victims of stalking every year, and the Cleveland Advocacy project.
• Work with the Director of Services to deliver an ambitious strategy which includes developing national hubs and accreditation services across the UK, as well as supporting in the roll out and delivery of core training packages across statutory and non-statutory services.
• Provide leadership and management to relevant managers and team leaders.

The Senior Service and Development Lead will be an ambitious, dynamic leader with strong senior operational experience. The successful candidate will need to think on their feet and work in a fast paced, ever-changing environment.  You will have a successful track record in designing, developing and delivering a range of projects and services demonstrating strong project management skills, as well as significant experience offering strategic and operational direction to front line services. You will have a background in the violence against women and girls' sector and experience of working in domestic abuse, sexual violence and/or the criminal justice sector. The ideal candidate will have experience in safeguarding and case supervision.

You will have demonstrable experience in a senior managerial role, be confident setting targets and appraising performance and be an inspiring leader. You will be an excellent communicator with have a successful track record representing an organisation to senior external stakeholders, including government and the media, with strong influencing and negotiation skills with people at all levels. You will have experience developing briefings, producing reports and reporting to funders. You will understand the financial constraints of working in a small charity, and funding mechanisms within the sector, with proven ability to manage multiple complex budgets. You will be passionate about the area of violence against women and girls and want to play an integral part of its future.

This is an exciting time to be part of this organisation. If you are committed, ambitious, results-driven, and resilient and would like to hear more about this opportunity, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Job Information

We’re looking for a creative-loving Marketing Communications person to join our digital content team at Hospice UK. It’s a really exciting chance to jump into a pivotal role here, and facilitate much of the great visual content that we produce as a team.

You’ll be working with some lovely people in the wider Communications and Campaigns team, which is part of an External Affairs directorate. We’re a small, close-knit department but already this year we’ve achieved some truly mighty results – not least, our recent rebrand, new strategy and new visual identity.

As you might imagine, working at a hospice charity brings with it some truly compassionate people. It’s a really lovely place to work because the people make it so. As Senior Marketing Communications Officer, you’d be part of a team of three, including your line manager (Senior Digital Marketing & Campaign Manager), and Membership Communications Officer.

And yes – as a hospice charity, we do work with death and dying on a daily basis. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Actually, by talking about it, writing about it and sharing stories about it, we’re helping to remove the stigma and taboo that it often comes with. And those stories and communications help give people hope, strength and confidence, sometimes when they need it most.

As Senior Marketing Communications Officer, you’ll be looking after a lot of our more creative, aesthetic products and projects. You might already be working as a Marketing or Digital Marketing Officer or Coordinator, and looking for the next step for your career. Or you could be an established Marcomms professional searching for a new challenge. Maybe you’ve already been in a marketing management position and want to get back to doing what you love!

Either way, you’ll be pretty knowledgeable on how to look after digital channels like social media and websites, and will have some experience of both. You might have some photoshoot management and video projects under your belt too, and ideally you’ll have experience of managing a digital asset management system. The role will also involve some print project knowledge, so it would be really handy if you’ve looked after relationships with designers, printers and know how the process works (and what gsm our new Impact Report should be, for example!)

We don’t expect you to be a brand specialist, but hopefully you’ll have experience of working with an organisation’s brand book, tone of voice and visual identity guidelines. That’s because many people in other teams here will turn to you for guidance on how to use our new brand, which logo or font to use, and requests to source appropriate photography in our house style.

We’re looking to bolster our content and storytelling about compelling hospice care, and we’d love someone to join us with ideas on how to elevate that, and help source and write those stories up for us. Part of your role as Senior Marketing Communications Officer will be to help produce content – stories, videos, photos, resources – to our two major national campaigns: Hospice Care Week, and Dying Matters Awareness Week. Check out what we did for the latter: a beautifully animated film and stories of the people in it.

Here’s what the outgoing role-holder says about her time here: “I’ve loved the variety of this role and being able to work with different teams on various projects - it keeps work interesting! I have also really enjoyed the people – my colleagues in the team are knowledgeable, supportive and collaborative.”

We’re based in London’s King’s Cross, just a five minute walk from the station. But Hospice UK employees are based all over the UK! Our hybrid working policy means that as long as you are able to get to the office a few times a month, you’re free to work from wherever you want (in the UK) for the rest of the time. We have both quarterly all-staff and External Affairs away days, which are a great chance to catch up in person with colleagues from around Hospice UK.

If you’re interested in our exciting Marketing Communications role, we’d love to hear from you.

Hospice UK:

As the national champion for hospices, we fight to make sure hospice care is there for everyone, from every background. We fight to make sure hospices are able to deliver the best personalised care. We fight to make sure hospices can thrive – today and into the future.

We represent the community of more than 200 hospices across the UK. They do everything they can for children and adults living with long-term illnesses or approaching the end of their lives. We do everything we can to support hospices’ invaluable work.

Our mission is to promote and protect hospice care for all who need it, for now and forever.
