For many roles, this is likely to be the minimum required to deliver impact.
This will be discussed and agreed with your manager / team and we encourage candidates to discuss our ways of working in more detail at interview stage.

We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.

The role: This is a rewarding role where every day brings the opportunity to make a positive difference to people's lives. We regularly receive testimonials from service users describing the life-changing impact of receiving support from our caseworkers in the National Road Victim Service.
Working location: mostly remote work with some travel required. Based in the north/central area of the South West region you will deliver a face-to-face service to clients in their own home or safe meeting place across the Dorset, Avon, Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire area as well as providing support by Teams, phone, email or other means to suit the service user. We take a person-centred approach so the amount of travel will vary depending on your caseload at the time. You’re in control of your own diary.
Why this role is important: Every 20 minutes, someone is killed or seriously injured on UK roads. For families affected, the emotional and practical challenges are immense. As a Caseworker, you will provide trauma-informed care to individuals and families suffering from the sudden bereavement or life-altering injury of a loved one. Working mostly remotely, with some home visits to service users, you’ll offer vital emotional and practical support—including helping them access therapeutic resources, financial assistance, and guidance through the complexities of medical and legal processes.
About Brake: Brake is a renowned and respected road safety charity with a 30-year history dedicated to supporting people affected by road crashes and advocating for safer streets.
You'll join a closely knit team of fellow caseworkers, each using their individual experience and skills to provide person-centred support to victims. This provides a ready-made peer group who share best practice and knowledge and support each other so, in turn, they can best support road victims. There's no sugar coating it, this isn't an easy role, it requires a special type of person with strong resilience, but the reward is a strong sense of purpose, every day. You can’t pour from an empty cup, so we have strong support systems in place to support our caseworker's wellbeing, including clinical supervision.
What we offer:
· A generous 35 days of annual leave (including bank holidays and 3-day end of year shutdown)
· Birthday day off

· Pension
· Employee Assistance Programme

· Be part of a skilled, friendly team with an engaged Board of Trustees

Who we're looking for
Full training will be provided under the guidance of our dedicated Training Officer. Our induction program has been developed to equip caseworkers with the skills they need to provide high quality support to road victims and covers topics such as being trauma-informed, safeguarding and risk management. We're open to candidates from all sorts of backgrounds, as long as you're a compassionate, self-starter with a background in providing high-quality emotional support and advocacy. Your experience in roles within the NHS, any health and social care, road safety, counselling, lived experience or any type of casework could make you an ideal candidate.
Essential Requirements:
- A full, clean UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle (travel expenses are reimbursed)
- Resident in the north/central area of the South West Region.
- Experience delivering frontline support, preferably involving sudden bereavement or heightened vulnerabilities.

Desirable Experience:
Comprehensive understanding of the processes involved in the criminal justice system and coronial process

Are you excited by the idea of building a national volunteer network that delivers real, life-changing impact?
Charity People is delighted to be partnering with a charity to recruit a Volunteer Coordinator for a newly created role at a pivotal moment in their evolution.
A chance to shape something from the very beginning
The charity is undergoing an exciting transformation. Long known for providing audio equipment, they're evolving into the UK's leading technology empowerment service for people with sight loss.
This role sits at the heart of that change. As Volunteer Coordinator, you'll build and nurture a nationwide volunteer network that will transform how people with sight loss access technology support.

- Match volunteers to service users based on skills, location and availability
- Build peer-support networks, mentoring relationships and learning opportunities
- Create recognition programmes and development pathways
- Foster a strong, connected volunteer community across digital and in-person spaces
This is a role for someone who cares deeply about people, thrives on purpose, and understands what makes volunteers feel supported and valued.
A culture built on trust, flexibility and wellbeing
The charity understands that life doesn't stop at the door of work. The charity is deeply committed to staff wellbeing and recognises that family responsibilities, health, caring roles or life events sometimes need to take priority.
You'll be supported in a truly flexible, family-friendly working environment, built on:
- Trust, not micromanagement
- Respect for individual circumstances
- Autonomy over when and how you work
- A leadership team that genuinely listens
This is a remote-first organisation where people are trusted to do their best work in a way that works for them - and where kindness and accountability go hand in hand.
What else is on offer
- Fully remote, genuinely flexible working
- Part-time hours (21.75 per week) arranged around your life
- 15 days' annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rata, based on full-time entitlement)
- Additional time off over the Christmas period
- Auto-enrolment pension
- Quarterly in-person team days and occasional events
- A supportive, mission-driven team that values collaboration and care
Inclusion at the heart of everything
The charity is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and strongly encourages applications from people with sight loss. Lived experience is highly valued, and reasonable adjustments will be made throughout the recruitment process and in the role itself to ensure everyone can thrive.
