Who we are
Every year, thousands of people in the UK face court alone. Often through no choice of their own, people must represent themselves at a moment that could have life-changing outcomes. This includes loss of access to children or homelessness. At the same time, people facing court alone may find themselves up against a party with legal representation. They are instantly at a disadvantage and overwhelmed by the enormity of the challenges they are up against. We supported unrepresented litigants in the civil and family courts in England and Wales over 45,000 times last year.
We provide a safe space with volunteers who listen to each client’s individual story. Last year, over 1000 volunteers helped people to get their thoughts in order, problem-solve and decide next steps, source relevant and reliable legal information, explain complex procedures, complete court forms, and clearly present statements.
At a time when legal support is increasingly limited, we have a vision that no one should have to face court alone.
To make this vision a reality, we have a focused communications strategy to ensure the charity has the brand, reach and impact it needs to connect with unrepresented court users and engage supporters.
Who we're looking for
Ambitious, professional, committed and friendly. That describes us. If it also describes you and you have a passion for designing and iplementing volunteer training programmes, then we’re keen to hear from you.
We’re looking for a Triage Project Lead to join our team on a 6-month contract. You’ll be leading on a project to improve the way in which we triage our clients across our services, with a focus on supporting survivors of domestic abuse better, by enabling our volunteers to identify them earlier in the process and respond accordingly, incorporating a trauma-informed approach.
The role
The Triage Project Lead will be based in the service department, and you’ll be supported by the Head of Service Delivery.
We’re open to applications from professionals with experience of designing and implementing effective traiging processes who are able to work remotely, and undertake some travel to our offices across England and Wales.
To apply, please send your CV and a cover letter about why you're the right person for the role via Charity Job.
Please note, that we have two roles advertised, both of which are short-term contracts and could be held by the same person, running the projects consecutively. You may wish to apply for both positions, and if that is the case please only complete one application, detailing clearly in the application that you are applying for both roles.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

This is a well-established health and wellbeing charity operating across London, delivering services that support vulnerable and socially excluded individuals. The organisation works closely with a wide range of funders, partners and regulatory bodies and operates within a complex, multi-funded environment.

The Job
Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, the Head of Finance and Reporting will lead all aspects of financial planning, reporting and control.

The role includes responsibility for financial reporting to senior leadership, funders, partners and regulatory bodies, oversight of the annual audit, strengthening internal financial controls and managing financial risk. You will manage and develop the finance and management accounts teams and work closely with operational, fundraising and business development colleagues to support informed, strategic decision-making.
The Person
You will be a qualified accountant (ACCA, ACA, CIMA or CIPFA) with significant post-qualification experience in senior finance roles. You will bring strong technical accounting knowledge, experience of charity finance and funding compliance, and a proven track record of leading staff/teams and managing audits.

Who we are
Every year, thousands of people in the UK face court alone. Often through no choice of their own, people must represent themselves at a moment that could have life-changing outcomes. This includes loss of access to children or homelessness. At the same time, people facing court alone may find themselves up against a party with legal representation. They are instantly at a disadvantage and overwhelmed by the enormity of the challenges they are up against. We supported unrepresented litigants in the civil and family courts in England and Wales over 45,000 times last year.
We provide a safe space with volunteers who listen to each client’s individual story. Last year, over 1000 volunteers helped people to get their thoughts in order, problem-solve and decide next steps, source relevant and reliable legal information, explain complex procedures, complete court forms, and clearly present statements.
At a time when legal support is increasingly limited, we have a vision that no one should have to face court alone.
To make this vision a reality, we have a focused communications strategy to ensure the charity has the brand, reach and impact it needs to connect with unrepresented court users and engage supporters.
Who we're looking for
Ambitious, professional, committed and friendly. That describes us. If it also describes you and you have a passion for designing and iplementing volunteer training programmes, then we’re keen to hear from you.
We’re looking for a Training Project Lead to join our team on a 4-month contract. You’ll be leading on a project to improve our volunteer training programme, with a focus on supporting survivors of domestic abuse and incorporating a trauma-informed approach throughout the training package.
The role

We’re open to applications from training professionals who are able to work remotely, and undertake some travel to our offices across England and Wales.

You may wish to apply for both positions, and if that is the case please only complete one application, detailing clearly in the application that you are applying for both roles.
