WHO WE ARE

We are Zarach, the children’s bed charity, and we’re on a mission to end child bed poverty, helping children get a good night's sleep, and the chance to thrive at school. 

In our nearly eight years as a registered charity, we’ve captured the hearts and attention of many individuals, community groups, businesses and funders who want to support us on our mission. We’ve also been given an incredible media platform from which we have raised awareness of child bed poverty at local, regional and national levels. This support and awareness has seen us deliver over 18,000 bed bundles to children to date! 

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Provide coordination and administrative support to the LRN Steering Group and any sub-groups, including agenda-setting, papers, action tracking and follow-up.
• Support the development of appropriate governance arrangements, policies and partnership agreements as the Network progresses towards a more formal and potentially standalone structure.

Stakeholder engagement and system influence

• Build and maintain strong relationships with recovery communities, peer-led organisations, service providers, commissioners and London-wide partners.
• Act as a conduit for sharing intelligence, learning and good practice across the London recovery system.
• Represent the LRN at relevant regional or national meetings, events and forums, where appropriate.

Lived experience and inclusion

• Ensure people with lived experience of substance use treatment and recovery are meaningfully involved in LRN activities, events and decision-making.
• Promote inclusive and recovery-oriented approaches that reflect London’s diverse communities, including women, families, ethnically diverse communities and people experiencing multiple disadvantage.

Communications and knowledge sharing

• Coordinate LRN communications activity, including newsletters, briefings and digital content, in line with agreed priorities.
• Support the development of resources that promote recovery visibility, challenge stigma and highlight community-based support.
• Capture and share learning, impact and outcomes from LRN activity.

Funding, finance and sustainability

About the role

We're looking for a friendly, proactive Advice Caseworker (Outreach Specialist) to join our high performing Advice Service.

This is a unique role combining student advice and outreach. You'll provide one-to-one advice to students on academic matters, while also developing and delivering engaging outreach activities that help students understand the support available to them.

We're looking for someone who enjoys working with people, is confident communicating with a wide range of audiences, and is passionate about improving the student experience. You'll be equally happy supporting students in appointments as you are delivering workshops, attending events and building relationships across the University.

If you have experience supporting people, excellent communication skills, and enjoy making a positive impact, we'd love to hear from you.

Join a supportive, ambitious team and help ensure every Imperial student knows where to turn when they need advice.

What you would be doing

You wil provide confidential, impartial advice and guidance to students on academic regulations and procedures, helping them understand their options and navigate challenging situations. Through appointments, meetings and written correspondence, you will support students in resolving issues while maintaining accurate case records and ensuring a high standard of service delivery.

Working closely with College departments and external organisations, you will help students access the support they need and contribute to identifying trends and emerging issues affecting the student experience. Your insights will help inform the Union's advocacy work and support positive change across the University.

Alongside your advice responsibilities, you will develop and deliver a programme of outreach activities designed to raise awareness of the Advice Service and wider Union initiatives. This will include promoting the service at Welcome events, delivering presentations, maintaining a visible presence across campuses and building relationships with key stakeholders to ensure students can easily access support.

You will also measure the impact of outreach and engagement activities, using data and feedback to continually improve the programme. In addition, you will contribute to training students, colleagues and elected officers, participate in relevant meetings and working groups, and support the Union's strategic commitment to student wellbeing, engagement and empowerment.

What we are looking for

We are looking for a compassionate and proactive individual who is excited about supporting students and helping people navigate challenging situations. You will have experience providing advice, guidance or one-to-one support through appointments, meetings, calls or similar settings, with the ability to build trust, communicate clearly and maintain confidentiality. You will be highly organised, able to manage competing priorities, maintain accurate records and produce clear written communications, while demonstrating a strong commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion.

You will also be confident engaging with a wide range of audiences and promoting services through presentations, events or other outreach activities. Experience of encouraging participation, building relationships and delivering impactful engagement initiatives will be valuable, as will an understanding of the issues affecting students and young people. Above all, you will be someone who enjoys working collaboratively and takes a student-centred approach to their work.
