Why Access Social Care Exists 

Every day, millions of older and disabled people are denied the social care they need. Most local authorities can’t meet the growing demand for care, and none are confident they can meet their legal duties in the future. This affects all of us - we will all need social care at some point in our lives. 

We all have a right to hold public bodies to account, but most of us cannot afford lawyers so rely on legal aid. The 92% drop in legal aid cases since 2010 means that we have nowhere to turn. Without access to justice, our rights do not exist. The rule of law is broken. 

What we do 

Access Social Care provides free legal advice and information for people with social care needs, helping achieve a better quality of life. We work with communities to increase knowledge of the law and our rights. We highlight the gap left by cuts to Legal Aid and provide advice for those who can’t afford it. 

With a 98% success rate, our network of lawyers provide access to justice when things go wrong. We collaborate with social services whilst ensuring legal obligations are met. We are working towards a future where social care is adequately funded, and we all get the support we need. 

We provide rights awareness training to front line managers, and legal advice and support to families and individuals. As well as providing access to justice, our aim is to drive system level change through evidence-led influencing and strategic casework.

This is an exciting time to join ASC. We have a new strategy and are growing quickly including across our senior leadership team. We have more than doubled in size and income since we started operating in April 2020 and we anticipate that this strong growth will continue for the duration of our next strategic period. We are dedicated to the people who need our help, but we also care deeply about our team, and we think that work should be an exciting and satisfying place to be.

Do you want to make change in the world?
Do you like to be creatively and intellectually challenged?
Do you love working with students, apprentices and young people?
Do you see education as a transformative force for individuals and society?
 
If you answered ‘Yes!’ then we’d love to hear from you.
 
Who we are
 
We’re one of the world’s largest student movements. Together with our 450 member students’ unions and 7 million students and apprentices, NUS are fighting to make education, and the world, better. We believe that education should be accessible and enjoyable for all – and our community of students, educators, activists and advocates are determined to make it happen.
 
Who you are
 
We’re looking for an experienced movement builder to make the student movement a powerful force in the UK. The Movement Development team is a new team in NUS, focusing on building an inclusive student voice and strong and healthy student activism that can unlock the collective power of the 7 million students and apprentices we represent. We will achieve this through projects that;

• develop the means for marginalised and under-represented student groups to campaign together; ranging from growing the Liberation Collective for racialised, women, LGBT , trans and disabled students, to building new structures for strong student voice in further education
• convene a political student and youth movement, strengthening its voice in civil society through organising and democratic engagement
• equip students with the skills, democracy and tools to build resilient campaign communities

 
You’ll be excited by the power and potential in the student movement, and you’ll have the magical combination of campaign and project management skills along with the aptitude for navigating political spaces and forging relationships across our diverse movement of member students’ unions, student activists and stakeholders. Initially you’ll manage our liberation and equality work but there will be scope to lead a broad range of projects as we grow.
 
Why apply?
 
In return for your passion and experience we offer the flexibility for work-life balance, a competitive salary for the non-profit sector and a great benefits package:

• 27 days holiday (increasing with service)
• Flexible working opportunities from day one

• Employee wellbeing support
• Paid Volunteering Days
• Other Benefits available: Company Pension Scheme, Free Flu vaccinations, Free Eye Test vouchers, Employee Assistance Scheme, Cycle to Work Scheme, discounts, Childcare Allowance, Health Cash Plan

 
We see anti-oppression as central to our mission. Education isn’t working unless it’s working for everyone in our society. We’re trans inclusive without exception and we welcome individuals who are up for taking active responsibility for their own ongoing learning on liberation, equity, diversity and inclusion.
 
We recognise that candidates from Black, Asian and Minoritised-Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds are under-represented in our organisation, and that there are often additional barriers present for people from these groups when applying for roles in the non-profit sector and beyond. We are committed to taking positive action to expand the diversity of our staff team, and if you meet the minimum criteria for a role (at least 80% of the criteria in the person specification) and are from a BAME background, you'll be guaranteed a first stage interview. It is important to note that this scheme guarantees an interview for candidates who meet the minimum criteria and tell us that they'd like to be considered under the scheme. The selection decision at interview will be based on the most suitable candidate, regardless of any protected characteristic.
 
This is a full-time permanent post based at either our London or Stockport office, with options for flexible and hybrid working, or homebased within the UK.
 
Closing date for applications: Monday 18th August 2025 (23:59)
If you’re successfully shortlisted, we’ll see you at an interview on Tuesday 2nd September 2025
