Junior project manager jobs
As Senior People Officer, you'll play a key role in delivering a high-quality People service across SSAFA. This is a blended role, combining employee relations advice and case support with hands-on responsibility for wellbeing, employee engagement and inclusion. Working closely with managers and colleagues across the organisation, you will help to resolve people matters fairly across the full employee lifecycle, while also developing initiatives that strengthen employee experience and organisational culture.
This is not a specialist employee relations role, nor is it solely an employee engagement role.
We are looking for someone who is motivated by both aspects and is keen to broaden their experience across:
- Employee engagement, wellbeing and inclusion initiatives, from shaping ideas through to delivery and evaluation
- Employee relations advice and case management, with support to continue developing your knowledge and confidence
- Building relationships, influencing stakeholders and coaching managers
- Organisational change, culture activity and cross-organisational people projects
- Policy development, internal communications and continuous improvement
Based at SSAFA's Central Office in London, the role offers flexibility to work remotely in line with organisational needs. However, you must be willing and able to travel to the office at short notice when required.
About the team
You'll join a collaborative and supportive People & Organisational Development team that is passionate about delivering an excellent service and continuously improving the employee experience. We value partnership, professionalism, compassion and inclusion, working together to help colleagues and managers thrive. In this role, you'll work closely with:
- Learning & Organisational Development
- People Systems & Operations
- Leaders and managers
- Project and change teams
- Internal Communications and other corporate functions
This cross-organisational exposure will give you valuable insight into how different teams work together to support SSAFA's mission.
About you
You are someone who enjoys building relationships, listening to colleagues and turning feedback or ideas into practical improvements. You are comfortable working collaboratively across teams, communicating with different audiences and helping to create an inclusive and engaging employee experience. You will bring sound judgement, empathy and curiosity, and be able to manage changing priorities in a fast-paced environment.
We're looking for someone who:
- Has experience in a generalist HR, employee engagement, wellbeing, inclusion, or related people-focused role and is ready for the next step in their career.
- Can demonstrate experience of contributing to or delivering engagement, wellbeing, inclusion, culture or employee experience initiatives.
- Has a sound understanding of HR practice and employment law, with the willingness and ability to develop further practical experience in employee relations and case management.
- Can build trusted relationships, adapt their communication style and work collaboratively with colleagues, managers and stakeholders at different levels.
- Can organise and deliver activity, manage multiple priorities and follow through from idea to implementation.
- Is curious, proactive and committed to improving the employee experience, and is comfortable suggesting new approaches and encouraging participation.
You do not need to be an employee relations expert to apply. However, you must have a sound understanding of HR practice and employment law and be willing to develop your employee relations experience. Likewise, candidates with a stronger ER background should be able to demonstrate a genuine interest in engagement, wellbeing and inclusion work.
We will assess candidates across both employee relations and engagement to reflect the balanced nature of the role. We are interested in your transferable experience, your understanding of good people practice and employment law, and your willingness to learn.

About the role:
A safe, well maintained room can be the foundation someone needs to begin rebuilding their life. As a Maintenance Operative, you’ll make sure our supported accommodation across London provides the safe, dignified and welcoming environment every client deserves.
This is a hands on, multi skilled maintenance role focused on minor repairs and property improvements rather than specialist or technically qualified trade work. Travelling between different services across London, you’ll complete jobs such as painting and decorating, repairing walls and fixtures, basic carpentry, minor plumbing, tiling and preparing empty rooms so they can be offered safely and quickly to someone who needs a home.
You’ll plan and manage a varied workload, respond to urgent health and safety concerns and identify problems before they become more serious. You’ll also inspect rooms and communal areas, record completed work clearly, arrange materials and flag any repairs that need to be passed to a qualified contractor. At times, you may check completed contractor work and provide feedback where standards have not been met.
Our accommodation is home to people who have experienced homelessness, mental ill health and other forms of multiple disadvantage. Some services are larger, hostel-style buildings, while others are smaller residential properties. You’ll often be working in occupied environments and may meet clients while completing repairs, so you’ll need to be comfortable working respectfully around people who may be distressed or experiencing a difficult time. You won’t be expected to provide support or manage challenging situations alone, and service colleagues will be available to help.
You’ll join a growing Maintenance Team that shares knowledge, works collaboratively and takes pride in getting the details right. With plenty of variety and autonomy, this is an opportunity to develop your practical skills while seeing the direct difference your work makes to the buildings we manage and the people who call them home.
About you:
- You have practical experience completing minor repairs, including painting and decorating, basic plumbing, carpentry and tiling.
- You can work safely and independently, while recognising when a specialist contractor is needed.
- You’re organised, reliable and able to manage jobs across multiple sites.
- You’re comfortable working respectfully in occupied supported accommodation where clients may be present.
- You take pride in delivering good-quality work that helps create safe and dignified homes.
About us:
We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.
In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up.
We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own.
Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.
We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

Higher education provides a transformative pathway for refugee youth, but establishing sustainable institutional access routes requires systemic collaboration. This role will lead the growth, formalisation, and management of university partnerships required to make an education pathway to the UK grow and flourish. You will oversee the complete partnership lifecycle: from university outreach and onboarding (including negotiating formal agreements at senior level), to enabling the formation of campus welcome groups, leading on initial and ongoing university and welcome group training and support, and monitoring and improving all university-facing processes within the pathway.
The postholder will work alongside a newly created Students Lead role, enabling you to focus on the institution-facing workstreams, while student-facing onboarding, welfare, and direct casework are handled by your counterpart.
This is a critical role within a small, high-capacity specialist unit within REUK. Because this is an emerging and new area of work you must be comfortable working with risk and ambiguity, refining and learning rapidly as parameters evolve. You will be an allrounder - as comfortable presenting to university executive boards and Vice-Chancellors as you are drafting MoUs, establishing Terms of Reference, organising and facilitating institutional training, and handling complex partnership operations independently.
Role outcomes
1. UK universities actively partner with REUK to create, expand, and sustain dedicated safe and legal education pathways for displaced students. To this end, key responsibilities include:
-
Developing and executing a national university engagement strategy to identify, pitch to, and secure new partner universities across the UK higher education sector.
-
Engaging directly with key university representatives - including Vice-Chancellors, Pro-Vice-Chancellors, Heads of Admissions, Sanctuary staff and key academics - to build institutional buy-in and secure long-term commitment to refugee education pathways.
-
Negotiating university support packages, including as appropriate fee waivers, scholarship or bursary structures, and accommodation commitments.
-
Nurturing and strategically managing existing university partnerships to ensure institutional sustainability, high-level engagement, and year-on-year growth in pathway placements.
-
Representing REUK where appropriate in sector-wide higher education networks and working groups on displaced student pathways.
2. Partner universities establish institutional frameworks, well-trained staff networks and campus welcome groups to receive refugee education pathway learners. To this end, key responsibilities include:
-
Guiding universities in establishing and structuring sustainable on-campus welcome groups (bringing together university staff and students) to support the welcome and integration of education pathway students.
-
Designing and delivering high quality training sessions for on-campus welcome groups and other key staff members.
-
Developing practical toolkits, guides, and frameworks for university staff to accompany above training.
-
Collaborating with the Students Lead to ensure campus welcome structures integrate with REUK's student support mechanisms.
-
Advocating within partner institutions for structural policy improvements (e.g. contextual admissions and flexible documentation policies).
3. University partnership governance, agreements, and operational systems run effectively and efficiently. To this end, key responsibilities include:
-
Drafting, negotiating, and finalizing formal Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs), Terms of Reference (ToRs), and operational service agreements with partner universities.
-
Managing all administrative and governance aspects of university partnerships independently, including contract tracking, partnership reviews, and operational timelines without junior admin support.
-
Coordinating institutional admissions frameworks and placement quotas with university registry and admissions departments.
-
Serving as the primary point of contact for senior university leads when strategic, structural, or other partnership challenges arise
-
Maintaining robust data systems and records relating to university commitments, funding allocations, and institutional agreements.
4. REUK’s Education Pathways university partnerships work is robustly evaluated, financially sustainable, and aligned with REUK’s broader strategy. To this end, key responsibilities include:
-
Reporting directly to the Education Pathways Lead on partnership growth, institutional engagement metrics, and strategic pathway goals.
-
Working in close alignment with the Students Lead to ensure institutional frameworks effectively support cohort needs and programme delivery.
-
Collecting sector data, university feedback, and institutional metrics to demonstrate impact to funders, university boards, REUK’s board of trustees, and government stakeholders.
-
Supporting grant reporting and budget management related to university pathway expansion and partner development.
-
Feeding operational insights from university partnerships into REUK’s broader research, policy, and systemic change initiatives.
