We’re recruiting a proactive and highly organised Project Coordinator to lead the operational development of our Dog Champion Scheme and ensure its consistent, high-quality delivery across the North of England.
At Street Paws, we believe that no one should have to choose between a safe place to sleep and the pet they love. For people experiencing homelessness, a pet is often their only source of emotional support, companionship, and stability.
Through ourDog Champion Scheme, we help hostels across the North of England, Belfast and Wales become pet-friendly by providing specialist training, resources, and practical support. This work ensures that more people can access accommodation with their pets, improving mental wellbeing, promoting housing stability, and reducing unnecessary separation and trauma.
We’re a small, passionate team committed to making a big impact. If you care about social justice, inclusion, and animal welfare — and you’re great at developing systems, growing partnerships, and making things happen — we’d love to hear from you.
About the Role
This role is essential to the expansion of our work. You’ll be responsible for developing and improving our training and onboarding offer, coordinating hostel partnerships, and working with local veterinary practices to arrange treatment when needed.
You’ll work closely with our team of project co-ordinators, volunteers, and external partners to grow the scheme sustainably and embed long-term change in hostels.
Key Responsibilities
-
Lead the coordination and development of the Dog Champion Scheme in new and existing locations
-
Develop and maintain training content and onboarding resources, working with internal and external stakeholders to ensure quality and accessibility
-
Support hostels throughout their journey to becoming pet-friendly — from initial engagement to follow-up and review
-
Work closely with hostel staff to deliver a consistent, trauma-informed approach to supporting residents with pets
-
Liaise with veterinary partners to arrange timely treatment for pets, ensuring continuity of care and strong local relationships
-
Identify and respond to areas for improvement across training and delivery, using data and feedback
-
Maintain accurate records and contribute to monitoring and evaluation
-
Build strong relationships with hostel partners, referral agencies, and support services
-
Work collaboratively with other team members and volunteers to ensure joined-up working and shared learning

-
Confident liaising with professionals from across sectors, including housing providers and veterinary teams
-
Comfortable using systems to manage information, track progress, and support decision-making
-
Adaptable, self-motivated, and able to work both independently and as part of a small team
-
Committed to inclusion, dignity, and non-judgemental support for all people

About Toynbee Hall
Based in the East End of London since 1884, Toynbee Hall is a charity working alongside people facing poverty, injustice, and inequality to build a fairer East London. We provide vital advice and support, working in partnership to tackle unfairness and ensure everyone has an equal chance to thrive.
We have recently launched a new strategic plan which reinforces that our purpose is to build a fairer future with an end to poverty, injustice and inequality.
We work towards this by:
- Addressing poverty and injustice through advice and support and influencing systemic change.
- Shifting power to people and communities affected by injustice and inequality.
- Collaborating to end poverty and build fairer systems and institutions. What we want to see in the world starts with our community and our organisation.
This means:
- Working together to build a thriving local community where people have the resources they need, feel their voices are heard and are optimistic about the future.
- Being a good employer, where people are treated fairly, feel engaged and empowered, and work together to achieve our shared vision.
- Acknowledging the role Toynbee Hall has historically played in civic society while recognising that our role now is to shift power, to be an effective partner, and to amplify voices that are less likely to be heard.
What we learn from our work in east London we use to inform and influence wider policy – working to influence change in structures, systems and policies.
