About the Role

This role has been created as part of a funded project to train two Immigration Caseworkers to IAA Level 2 and expand local immigration advice provision.

• Providing face to face and remote immigration advice to local residents

• Liaising with statutory and non statutory bodies on behalf of clients
• Maintaining clear, compliant and confidential case records
• Supporting colleagues with immigration related queries
• Keeping up to date with immigration law, policy and best practice
• Contributing to service development, reporting and quality assurance
• Representing the service at relevant meetings and with partner agencies

About You

You do not need previous experience as an Immigration Caseworker, but you must be able to demonstrate the potential to work in a regulated advice environment.

Essential skills and experience include:

• High level of written and spoken English
• Strong writing skills for reports, letters and submissions
• Ability to manage multiple tasks with excellent attention to detail
• Experience of working with vulnerable people in a sensitive and professional way
• Confidence using IT systems for case recording and document production
• Ability to follow procedures and maintain high standards
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills
• Commitment to equality, diversity and inclusive services

Applications are welcomed from people with lived experience of migration.
