Community management jobs

About us

The Refugee Council is the nation’s refugee charity. Together with community groups, partners and volunteers, we help people who have escaped war and persecution to rebuild their lives, integrate into communities, and play their part in Britain. Born in the aftermath of World War II, our frontline services support over 14,000 refugees each year to find safety, get to know their neighbours, and enter education, training or work. We share our evidence and expertise with policymakers to help build integrated communities where everyone can contribute. 

Our Values

Our values underpin everything we do:

• Inclusive: We are inclusive. We work with - not for - refugees and people seeking asylum, so they have an equal voice, co-producing projects and ensuring their expertise and experiences are at the heart of what we do.
• Collaborative: We are collaborative. Working with others is a priority in order to have the collective impact that is vital to achieve policy and practice reform.
• Courageous: We speak out when we see injustice, cruelty and unfairness. We always stand up for what we believe is the right thing to do to transform the experiences of those seeking protection in our country.
• Respectful: We are respectful of all those we interact with. We treat everyone – our staff, volunteers, beneficiaries, partners and people we disagree with – with the same respect, professionalism and understanding.

About the role

The Refugee Council supports separated children across England and part of our service is a team of staff based at the port of Dover, working 24/7 to provide a temporary safeguarding service for children arriving there, ensuring that their basic needs are met while they await transfer to the care of a local authority.

As a Support Worker, you will assess the basic needs of newly arrived clients and provide an appropriate service, including food, clothing, and access to hygiene facilities. You will work in the best interests of the child and ensure all safeguarding issues are responded to, reported and accurately recorded.

This vacancy may close earlier than the stated deadline if a high volume of applications is received. We encourage interested candidates to apply as soon as possible.

Ensuring that the Refugee Council is an inclusive and accessible place to work is important to us. We want to enable people from different backgrounds to apply and thrive with us. We believe our recruitment process enables that and are also happy to make adjustments on request.

This is a new senior leadership role created through Inclusion North’s restructure. It is central to how we rebuild our strategic presence in Yorkshire and Humber while ensuring strong, joined-up working across the Northeast.

You will lead high-level engagement across both regions, with a particular focus on Yorkshire and Humber. In this region, you will help Inclusion North reconnect, build strategic partnerships, and become a visible and valued voice in system-level spaces.

You will take a lead in representing Inclusion North across a range of regional spaces, including Communities of Practice, local authority-led forums, and, where appropriate, ICB-related groups. This means helping shape change, influence commissioning, and ensure that the voices of people with a learning disability, autistic people, and family carers are heard where decisions are made. You will also be expected to challenge constructively when systems fall short of inclusion, equity, or lived experience leadership.

You will line manage the Innovation and Impact Manager and the Good Life Collaborative Programme Lead. This includes overseeing how our delivery connects to system priorities, responds to emerging opportunities, and contributes to our financial sustainability. You will also provide strategic insight to support planning, funding, and future direction.

This is a leadership role for someone who can build trust, speak with credibility, and stand firm in their values. You will need the insight to understand how systems work, and the confidence to push for change when they do not work for the people they are meant to serve.

The Cross-regional Strategic Lead holds senior responsibility for regional engagement, system influence, and delivery oversight at a strategic level.

The role is anchored in Yorkshire and Humber, where you will need to be well-connected and regularly present. You will also work across the Northeast as part of a joined-up, cross-regional team.

DO NOT send your CV. We will only consider applicants who have submitted an application form.

Do you believe the outdoors has the power to change lives?

Are you passionate about helping young people overcome challenges, build resilience, and discover their potential through hands-on experiences in nature? If so, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!

At The King’s Trust, we use the natural world as a classroom to inspire growth, confidence, and self-reliance in young people. We’re looking for a Youth Development Lead with a love of bushcraft and the outdoors to join our team and deliver meaningful, adventurous programmes that empower young people to thrive.

In this role, you’ll lead outdoor-based personal development activities—everything from fire-lighting, shelter-building, and wild cooking to confidence workshops and problem-solving challenges in woodland settings. You’ll provide one-to-one mentoring and group support, guiding young people as they build new skills, overcome obstacles, and shape their own futures.

Collaboration is key—you’ll work closely with local partners, external agencies, and service providers to ensure each young person receives high-quality, tailored support. You’ll also take responsibility for tracking progress, keeping accurate records, and ensuring all activities are delivered safely and responsibly in line with safeguarding, health and safety, and funding requirements.

We’re looking for someone with:

• A genuine passion for youth development and the outdoors
• Experience in mentoring, bushcraft, or outdoor programme delivery
• Strong people skills and the ability to inspire trust and resilience
• Flexibility to work in varied environments, from community hubs to woodland camps

This is a hands-on role where you’ll have the chance to share practical bushcraft knowledge, spark curiosity, and make a lasting difference in the lives of young people—helping them grow stronger, more confident, and better connected to the natural world.
