For over 100 years, CPAS holidays have been introducing children and young people to Jesus through life-changing residential experiences. Building on foundations first laid in 1924, our Holidays Team now supports volunteer Overall Leaders and core teams to run approximately 60 Ventures and Falcon holidays each year, reaching around 2,500 children and young people.

As we see encouraging signs of renewed spiritual openness among young people, we are strengthening the ministry for this next season by investing in healthy leadership, healthy operations and healthy finances. Our c.2,000 volunteer leaders are at the heart of this work, and we recognise both their immense value and the growing challenges surrounding volunteer recruitment, retention and succession. Overall Leaders consistently identify burnout and the difficulty of passing on the baton as key threats to the future sustainability of the ministry.

To help address this, we are seeking a relational, proactive and strategically minded Leadership Training Officer to design, deliver and evaluate a national leadership training programme that strengthens the pipeline across Ventures and Falcons in a way that is Christ-centred, Bible-based and evangelistically focused.

This new role is an exciting opportunity to help shape the next generation of Christian leaders. We are looking for someone with a passion to see younger evangelical leaders thrive in their calling and be equipped to lead with faith, resilience and impact in a rapidly changing context. Alongside strong organisational and administrative skills, you will bring experience of designing and delivering effective training or development programmes, a strong understanding of biblical leadership, and the ability to build healthy relationships, particularly within volunteer-led contexts.

If that sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.

Application deadline: 9am on Monday 11 May.

Interviews are scheduled for Wednesday 20 May at our office in Coventry.

• Where applicable, provide bilingual support and where not possible work effectively with interpreters to ensure clear, accurate and culturally appropriate communication.

• Deliver and/or lead group-based integration sessions and workshops that support access to information, peer learning and opportunities related to longer-term settlement in the UK.

• Lead on partnership development and maintenance (including with Citizens Advice Rushmoor and other local partners), strengthening referral and signposting pathways and coordinating access to services and resources that enable clients to meet their short- and long-term goals.

• Support the completion and regular review of individual Support Plans using the Outcomes Star tool, with a focus on progression, goal-setting and exit planning.

• Advocate, verbally and in written form, on behalf of clients with service providers and statutory agencies, and support escalation and problem-solving where required.

Team support and quality assurance (40%)

• Line manage two Integration Officers, including setting objectives, providing regular reflective supervision, supporting wellbeing and professional development, and completing performance review processes.

• Provide case management support and oversight, including reviewing Individual Support Plans/Outcomes Star use, ensuring timely case notes, and embedding strengths-based, trauma-informed practice.

• Support team coordination and consistency, including agreeing priorities, balancing workload, supporting cover arrangements, and promoting learning and continuous improvement.

Internal Job Title: Sanctuary Support Coordinator

Hours: 35 hours per week (full time). 

Location: Home-based focussed around Cardiff and Newport, with regular travel across Wales and occasional travel to England. 

Contract: Currently funded until December 2028. 

Salary: £36,191. 

About us 

Housing Justice unites diverse communities to build personal connections, help people out of homelessness, and create justice in the housing system. Our vision is of a community where everyone has a safe and stable home, and a feeling they belong. 

Our Seeking Sanctuary project is a Wales-based initiative delivering innovative housing solutions and community-led support for people seeking sanctuary. We combine community hosting, tenancy-based housing, and advocacy to help build a Nation of Sanctuary. 

About the role 

Reporting directly to the Sanctuary Manager, you will be responsible for the day-to-day delivery of our accommodation pathways, ensuring the best possible outcomes for destitute migrants and newly granted refugees. 

This is a dynamic, frontline casework role that spans three core areas of our housing provision: 

• The Hosting Project: Supporting people seeking sanctuary who have no recourse to public funds by giving them a welcoming, safe place to stay in the home of one of our volunteer hosts. 

• Refugee Lodgings: Helping to provide a safe and supported housing option for newly granted refugees at risk of homelessness by matching them with people who have a spare room. 

• Transitional Housing: Providing vital tenancy sustainment support for newly granted refugees transitioning into our shared accommodation properties. 

About you 

We are seeking a dedicated, highly organised, and empathetic professional with proven experience working directly with people experiencing homelessness, particularly asylum seekers and forced migrants. 

You will have a strong working knowledge of the housing system, the UK welfare system (including Universal Credit and Housing Benefit), and how to support people to access their entitlements. Because this role requires managing complex casework and navigating cultural nuances, you must possess strong interpersonal skills, particularly when working with vulnerable people or those with English as a second language. 

If you are a creative problem-solver who is passionate about empowering refugees and building sustainable housing pathways, we want to hear from you. 

Benefits 

• 29 days annual leave, 3 of which are fixed between Christmas and New Year. 

• This is in addition to bank holidays and pro-rata if part time. 

• After 3 years of service, you are entitled to one additional day of holiday for each additional year of service, up to a maximum of 5 additional days, pro-rata if part time. 

• We offer flexible working. Not all posts can be made flexible, but where possible we operate core hours of 10am - 3pm, with employees able to flex their working day around these. 

• Any flexibility is at the discretion of the line manager and relevant senior manager. 

• As this role is offered as Home Working, we will provide some financial support to get you set up with appropriate equipment. 

• We offer an employee assistance programme through Spectrum Life, which can be used by you and your family for a range of advice and support. 

• We offer a cycle-to-work scheme. 

How to apply 

If this sounds like the opportunity for you, please read the attached job description and fill out the application form, describing your capabilities for each of the numbered points in the person specification. 

Interviews will provisionally be held on Thursday 11 June
