• Respond promptly to enquiries about volunteering, engage with individuals to encourage them to volunteer and interview potential volunteers to identify their strengths, interests, development and support needs.

We’re looking for a natural communicator who can tell our story in an accessible and compelling way.  You’ll be able to think creatively, whilst being comfortable keeping across routine but vital tasks such as producing newsletters and updating social media.  You’ll take pride in making those outputs the best they can be.  It’s required that you have your own lived experience of disability, which could include mental health issues or a long term condition.  We also particularly welcome applications from global majority candidates, who are currently underrepresented at this level in our organisation. 

Your role will focus on two of our projects: our work with the Barnet Together Alliance supporting the local voluntary sector; and the work of the NCL VCSE Alliance, which we currently chair.

By enabling the participation of women with lived experience in policy and campaigning work our social change team promotes a holistic, rather than issue based, understanding of human rights violations experienced by Latin American migrant women in order to tackle systemic barriers that heighten migrant women’s vulnerability to abuses and which bars them from exercising their rights, accessing justice and leading violence free lives.
