We reserve the right to close applications should we have a reasonable number of shortlisted candidates early on.
We will be holding interviews for the role online on the 9th and 10th July.
Why this role is important – and why you’ll make a difference doing it:
HOPE not hate is the UK’s leading anti-fascist organisation. Our mission is simple: To monitor and challenge the far right, to engage in the communities that are susceptible to them and to address the issues and policies which give rise to them.
Over the last five years, we have grown steadily, with our research and intelligence work exposing and undermining the far right, even foiling a murder plot, our community engagement providing expertise to vulnerable communities and our work in schools growing to teach young people to recognise and challenge prejudice and hate.
About the role
The Community Outreach Officer will deliver on helping the communities susceptible to the far right. As part of the policy team, they will have access to research and policy insights on the issues which are causing tension and divisions in communities and where these tensions are most acute, and use this to devise locally-led solutions in partnership with key figures in the community and relevant sectors.
They will have experience in community organising, whether through employment or voluntary work, and use this experience to develop an organisational strategy for addressing far-right organising and hate-based community tensions. Part of the strategy will include a plan to extend and deepen HOPE not hate’s existing relationships in key areas across the UK. It will also involve designing and publicising resources, developing and delivering training and writing regular briefings.
Willingness to work with a variety of stakeholders is important. The role will include liaising with local authorities, national and local organisations and grassroots community activists to build and facilitate the design of locally-led community resilience strategies. There will also be access to our existing networks and relationships across relevant sectors e.g. migration and refugee sector, community cohesion and local authorities. An understanding that communities and community groups are the experts on their own needs is crucial – solutions should be developed with, not for, those most impacted.
This role requires travel around the UK to support areas where help is needed. Please get in touch if you have further questions about what this would mean.
Key responsibilities
-
Working with the research team to distribute and explain information on local risks.
-
Working with relevant stakeholders to share solutions and best practice, including through meetings and events.
-
Developing resources and guides to support stakeholders to build more resilient communities.
-
Developing and delivering training to support key stakeholders in responding to rising tensions and responding to hate.
-
Using data and polling to target areas and solutions locally.
-
Travelling to meet key stakeholders in communities affected.

-
Maintain and promote the mission of HOPE not hate.
-
Uphold HOPE not hate’s values when working with communities, stakeholders and colleagues.
-
Participate in events and activities to showcase the work of HOPE not hate
-
Attend agreed supervision and review meetings with your line manager.
-
Contribute creatively to the future development of HOPE not hate.
-
Identify and undertake other duties as appropriate to this role.
Skills requirements:
-
One or more year’s experience in community engagement.
-
Experience of delivering training, or confidence in public speaking.
-
Experience of working alongside partners to develop work.
