The Charity 

Founded in 2015, Breaking Barriers is a fast-paced, start-up charity with a mission to help refugees in London gain the knowledge, confidence and experience to secure stable and fulfilling employment in their new home. 

We offer effective and flexible employment support in direct partnership with businesses that help refugees secure work, progress into better jobs, and successfully integrate into UK society. We have a unique approach, working with corporate partners to help refugees develop careers that match their skills, experience and aspirations. 

Since Breaking Barriers’ inception in 2015, we have grown to support in excess of 500 refugees per year and have ambitious plans to expand this as part of our strategic plan. We concentrate on getting things done in a flexible environment where everyone is encouraged to take ownership and contribute. 

We are a team of around 30 staff supported by several hundred volunteers, who are all driven and committed to helping London’s refugee community.  We are looking for similarly driven and ambitious individuals keen to join an enterprising organisation where they can benefit from the opportunity to innovate and shape the direction of the charity. Colleagues who thrive are passionate, driven and have the confidence to work autonomously while remaining team players and sharing credit with all involved.

We are looking for someone who lives and breathes our values: 

·Mission-led: our clients come before everything else. 

·Welcoming: we want all people to feel happy, comfortable and secure with us. 

·Collaborative: we are supportive and considerate, curiously exploring other viewpoints to find solutions.

·Enterprising: we are discerningly bold, entrepreneurial and have the courage to give things a go.

Overall Purpose of the Role 

Breaking Barriers’ Education Programme was started in 2017 to complement our core Employment support. The Programme is designed to enable refugees to achieve the level of English that is needed to enter the workplace or further education by providing supplementary courses to statutory provision. Covering a range of levels of English language courses, from Pre-Beginner to Business Writing, the Programme has expanded to include IT and Numeracy and aims to branch out into further courses, such as Health and Safety. The Education Programme relies on skilled volunteers who lead our education courses and help clients learn English, improve their IT skills and support with curriculum development. Your primary responsibility will be to support the Education Programme Coordinator and the Volunteer Manager with operational administration to support the smooth running of the Education and Volunteering programmes.

The successful applicant will gain valuable programme assistant and administrative experience in the education and refugee sectors. This is an entry-level position but we envisage that the job holder will be able to take on more responsibility as they develop and as the organisation grows and changes.

Key Responsibilities 

Education coordination and administration 

Breaking Barriers runs education classes and training sessions to support its main employment programme. Your responsibilities will include: 

·Help with the recruitment and organisation of classes.

·Coordinate with the Employment team to ensure clients within the Education programme are receiving holistic support, and that the programme continues to meet the needs of refugees also receiving other types of support. 

·Conduct research into other English language and IT and Numeracy opportunities in the area to ensure that Breaking Barriers is not duplicating the work of other organisations, and identify opportunities for partnership where relevant. 

·Take on additional duties and responsibilities, as and when needed, to ensure the smooth running of the Education Programme. 

Volunteer coordination and administration 

Breaking Barriers relies on volunteers who work with clients to provide help in finding employment or learning English, as such there is a natural crossover between the Volunteering and Education programmes. Volunteers may also assist in our offices. Your role involves: 

·Responding to general enquiries about volunteering, providing details of the work. 

·Tracking the progress of volunteer applications. 

·Conducting the initial screening of volunteers. 

·Providing feedback on applications and rejecting unsuccessful applications from volunteers, usually by email. 

·Updating volunteer details into our database.

About Us

Action Tutoring is an education charity that supports pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds to succeed in school.

In the UK today, young people facing socio-economic disadvantage are less likely to achieve the grades they need to progress in life. This isn’t because they are any less able – it’s because they have less access to tools to support them to realise their potential.

We help to level the playing field by working in partnership with schools to deliver weekly tutoring in English or Maths, to pupils who need it the most.

Following a recent promotion, we’re now on the lookout for an Office, HR and Finance Administrator to join our team in the heart of London for a one year, fixed-term contract which has the real possibility to extend subject to funding.

- Playing an active role in IT, GDPR and safeguarding meetings
- Providing administrative support for Board meetings
- Assisting with financial administration, including invoices and payments, preparing monthly finance paperwork and processing payroll and expenses

- Previous experience in an administrative or finance role
