Job description

At GARAS, we stand alongside refugees, asylum seekers and other migrants as they rebuild their lives. We’re a medium-sized, trauma‑informed and compassionate organisation, and we’re looking for someone with experience in advice work who’s ready to take on a meaningful challenge to join us as an Advice and Support Worker.

This one year post offers the successful candidate the chance to join a dedicated team of staff and volunteers who work in a fast‑moving environment where no two days are the same. You’ll provide vital advice and advocacy - helping clients to navigate complex immigration and welfare systems.  You will maintain GARAS' Adv

What you’ll do

  • Provide independent, impartial advice on immigration and welfare issues (including housing, benefits, health, education, training and employment).
  • Advocate for clients, liaising with agencies such as the Home Office, Migrant Help, local housing providers, health and social services, and other statutory or voluntary organisations.
  • Maintain clear, professional boundaries and ensure confidentiality at all times.
  • Work closely with the Advice Manager, team members and volunteers to deliver a consistently high‑quality advice service.
  • Keep accurate, up‑to‑date case records compliant with GDPR and AQS (Advice Quality Standards).
  • Stay informed about policy changes and new resources relevant to immigration, asylum and welfare advice.

Beyond the day‑to‑day

  • Support volunteers involved in advice work.
  • Take part in supervision, team meetings, and debriefs that keep our service trauma‑informed and collaborative.
  • Contribute to developing and improving GARAS’s advice systems and service quality.
  • Participate in relevant training (including IAA Level 1 if you don't already hold this) and continuous professional development.

What you will bring

  • Experience in delivering advice work — ideally in immigration, asylum, or welfare rights
  • Strong communication and negotiation skills
  • Organised, detail‑oriented approach to record‑keeping and case management
  • A genuine commitment to equality, compassion and empowerment
  • Willingness to learn and stay up to date with legislation, guidance and good practice
  • IAA Level 1 or Level 2, or the willingness to be trained to IAA Level 1

Why work with us

  • Be part of an organisation that values care, professionalism and humanity
  • Work in a supportive environment guided by trauma‑informed principles
  • Play a crucial role in ensuring migrants and refugees get the fair treatment and respectful welcome they deserve

If you’re passionate about social justice and have the skills to guide others through complex systems with empathy and professionalism, we’d love to hear from you.
