Job description

Summary 

We are looking for a proactive and hands-on individual to join our growing team as a Community Assistant, playing a vital role in the day-to-day delivery of our community programme. This is a practical, people-focused role centered on creating safe, welcoming spaces where women can connect, learn, and grow. You will be at the heart of our events and workshops, handling the essential logistics that remove barriers and allow the women we support to engage fully.

An enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check will be undertaken. This post is restricted to women due to the nature of the role. The Occupational Requirement section under Schedule 9 (part 1) of the Equality Act 2010 applies.

Job description and person specification

Women who've survived trafficking and exploitation deserve spaces where they feel safe, valued, and free to grow. As our new Community Assistant, you'll be at the heart of our expanding community programme and making that happen. 

This is an exciting time to join Ella's. We're scaling up our workshops, events, and community activities, creating more opportunities for survivors to connect, learn, and move forward. And this practical, hands-on role will be central to that growth.

You'll be the one setting up workshops, coordinating the details that make events run smoothly, and creating the warm, welcoming atmosphere where survivors can thrive. From arranging transport to ensuring there are refreshments and fidget toys on hand, you'll handle the logistics that remove barriers and help women engage fully.

Every session you support, every practical problem you solve, it all adds up to something powerful: women reclaiming their futures. And you'll be building this work from the ground up
