Law Centres tell us that their biggest concern right now is staff recruitment and retention. Supported by the Advice Workforce Development Fund, Law Centres Network has undertaken a programme of work to help ensure the long-term sustainability of the Law Centre workforce. Although initially focused on London, this work will benefit our network across the UK as we gain deeper insights, develop best practice, and co-produce new approaches.
We are looking for someone to work with Law Centres across London and co-ordinate a joint effort between Law Centres, LCN and other partners to improve recruitment, career progression, and staff retention in Law Centres and the wider social welfare legal advice sector.
We are the Law Centres Network (LCN). We make the UK a fairer place by helping people get justice, even if they cannot afford a lawyer. For nearly fifty years, we have been at the centre of a movement for social justice and we believe that people in greater need should get more help. Together with local Law Centres, we deliver faster, more accessible and more joined-up help. We do this by supporting Law Centres to get more help to people in need, bringing Law Centres together to solve systemic problems, and speaking out for change.
Many problems that people face involve the law – being treated unfairly at work, issues with their landlord, problems with welfare benefits, or being discriminated against. Law Centres employ lawyers and other professionals, who are experts in this kind of everyday problem. They give people legal advice and can represent them if they need it. They use the law to solve problems that hold people back, so they can get on with their lives. There are over 40 Law Centres across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

About the charity
Living in the North West, we're 25% more likely to be diagnosed with cancer than elsewhere in the UK and many cancers are much more common across the region. The region also suffers from extreme social-deprivation and health inequalities which, when combined, lead to a lower-than-average life-expectancy and poorer quality of life for our communities.
Community fundraising is an important vehicle to challenge this - by raising money and awareness.
This role will cover North Manchester up to Lancashire - you'll be homebased with travel across the patch to meet supporters.
What will I be fundraising for?
Recent fundable projects include a groundbreaking annual Regional Report on cancer and the innovative Lab-Coat Learning education programme for the region's schools.
You'll act as the face of the charity out in the community, spreading the word about how fundraising can drive positive change. You'll develop relationships with volunteer fundraisers, community groups and local businesses, encouraging and motivating them to fundraise.
You'll deliver interactive presentations, activities and outreach sessions at schools and volunteer groups, offering support, advice and guidance on how people can supercharge their fundraising.
About you
You join a passionate and well-established fundraising team, who genuinely care about and support one another.
Key attributes we're looking for in our new Regional Fundraiser:
- Experience working in a face-to-face role, either fundraising, sales, account or volunteer management.
- Engaging presentation skills, able to inspire people to take action.
- Strong interpersonal and relationship-building skills.
- A self-motivated individual, capable of working independently and as part of a team.
- Target-driven, comfortable and confident working with achievable KPIs and targets.
- A team player, someone who brings the best out in other people.
- Flexibility to attend fundraising events, including some evenings and weekends.
- Ability to travel independently across the North Manchester and Lancashire.
If you're driven by making a difference in the fight against cancer, then step forward: we'd absolutely love to hear from you.
Please send a copy of your profile or CV to Ellen Drummond at Charity People as the first step.
Deadline: Please note, as this has been advertised previously, we'll be working on a rolling basis. Please get in touch as soon as possible if you are interested, we would love to begin conversations with interested candidates early.
If a rolling deadline disadvantages you in any way, please get in touch with Ellen and she'll do her very best to ensure you don't miss out.

Working for a leading cancer charity as their brand-new Regional Fundraiser, you'll help schools, community groups, individual volunteers and local businesses to fund world-class research.

About the charity
Living in the North West, we're 25% more likely to be diagnosed with cancer than elsewhere in the UK and many cancers are much more common across the region. The region also suffers from extreme social-deprivation and health inequalities which, when combined, lead to a lower-than-average life-expectancy and poorer quality of life for our communities.
Community fundraising is an important vehicle to challenge this - by raising money and awareness.
This role will cover North Manchester up to Lancashire - you'll be homebased with travel across the patch to meet supporters.

Recent fundable projects include a groundbreaking annual Regional Report on cancer and the innovative Lab-Coat Learning education programme for the region's schools.
You'll act as the face of the charity out in the community, spreading the word about how fundraising can drive positive change. You'll develop relationships with volunteer fundraisers, community groups and local businesses, encouraging and motivating them to fundraise.
You'll deliver interactive presentations, activities and outreach sessions at schools and volunteer groups, offering support, advice and guidance on how people can supercharge their fundraising.
About you
You join a passionate and well-established fundraising team, who genuinely care about and support one another.
Key attributes we're looking for in our new Regional Fundraiser:
- Experience working in a face-to-face role, either fundraising, sales, account or volunteer management.
- Engaging presentation skills, able to inspire people to take action.
- Strong interpersonal and relationship-building skills.
- A self-motivated individual, capable of working independently and as part of a team.
- Target-driven, comfortable and confident working with achievable KPIs and targets.
- A team player, someone who brings the best out in other people.
- Flexibility to attend fundraising events, including some evenings and weekends.
- Ability to travel independently across the North Manchester and Lancashire.
If you're driven by making a difference in the fight against cancer, then step forward: we'd absolutely love to hear from you.
