INDRBL1
Immigration Adviser
Hours:
· Part‑time or full‑time considered
· 22.5–37.5 hours per week
· Flexible working options available
About us
International Care Network (ICN) is a Christian charity walking alongside refugees, asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants as they rebuild their lives here in the UK. Every day, we see hope restored, confidence grow, and futures rebuilt - and you could be part of that story.
About the role
We’re looking for a compassionate, skilled Immigration Adviser to join our warm, dedicated team in Bournemouth. Our preference is for someone accredited at IAA Level 2 (or Level 3) in Immigration, as this will allow you to take on Level 2 immigration work from the outset.
We are also open to candidates with IAA asylum accreditation and experience, and depending on the successful candidate, we may explore developing elements of asylum work that can be undertaken without a legal aid contract. This would be shaped collaboratively with the person we recruit.
Solicitors or barristers with strong immigration experience are also welcome to apply.
What you’ll do
In this role, you’ll offer high‑quality immigration advice to people who are often navigating incredibly challenging moments in their lives. You will manage your own caseload of Level 2 immigration matters, supporting clients with clarity, care and professionalism.
Where appropriate, and depending on your accreditation and experience, you may also contribute to limited areas of asylum work that fall outside the legal aid contract, ensuring we manage demand responsibly and sustainably.
A big part of the role involves building trusting, compassionate relationships with the people you support, helping them understand their options and feel confident in their next steps. You’ll work closely with colleagues, partners and statutory agencies to move cases forward, contribute to our weekly drop‑in, and ensure that safeguarding, data protection and professional standards are always upheld.
You’ll keep your IAA registration, knowledge and CPD fully up to date, and play an important part in helping us grow and develop ICN’s immigration service, shaping how we support our community into the future.
Every day, your work will make a real and tangible difference.
Who we’re looking for
You’ll thrive in this role if you:
· Are IAA accredited at Level 2 or 3 in Immigration (preferred) and/or Asylum, or are a solicitor/barrister with relevant immigration experience
· Have at least 12 months’ experience delivering immigration advice
· Are confident managing your own caseload
· Communicate clearly and sensitively, both verbally and in writing
· Build rapport easily with people from diverse backgrounds
· Are organised, detail‑driven and able to work to deadlines
· Work well independently and collaboratively
· Are empathetic, respectful and committed to fairness
· Are comfortable working within and being supportive of ICN’s Christian ethos
If you don’t tick every box but feel drawn to this work, please still apply. We’d love to hear your story.
What we offer
· Salary: £31,500 pro rata
· 25 days’ annual leave + 8 bank holidays (pro rata)
· Company pension scheme
· Mileage paid at 45p/mile for work‑related travel
· Staff wellbeing support, socials, and access to clinical supervision
· Flexibility within contracted hours
· Ongoing training and development
· A genuinely supportive and friendly team who care about each other

The Diocese of Truro is home to 305 church buildings — extraordinary places of worship, history, community and culture. Each one tells a story about the people of Cornwall and the faith that shaped our landscape. We are committed to supporting the volunteers and clergy who care for these much‑loved spaces, ensuring they remain sustainable, welcoming and fit for mission.
As part of our ambitious Buildings Strategy, supported by the Church of England’s Buildings for Mission programme, we are expanding our capacity and seeking a Church Buildings Support Officer (CBSO) to join our Buildings, Environment and Land Team. A second CBSO will be recruited later in the year, and between the roles we aim to cover two specialist areas:
- Fundraising and grant support (particularly heritage and capital grants)
- Community engagement and enterprise development
We welcome applicants who bring strength in at least one of these areas. All CBSOs will also provide general fabric and funding advice.
As a CBSO, you will be an advisor, problem‑solver and encourager — working alongside parishes to help them repair, adapt and make the best possible use of their buildings. You’ll support everything from maintenance plans to major capital projects, helping churches access funding, specialist guidance and community partnerships.
You will play a key role in ensuring church buildings are well cared for, environmentally responsible, and equipped for worship, ministry and wider community life. The right person for this role will understand buildings in community settings and how they are used. They will be interested in heritage buildings and also know about, or want to learn about, churches and how to care for them. We need a strong communicator who can adjust to different audiences, engaging people in the cause rather than bulldoze them. The skills to bring people together to collaborate are key. Experience of developing and managing projects with community groups/faith groups and fundraising, as well as experience in budget management is important.
Ideally, we seek someone with a qualification and experience in a relevant area, but we are very happy to invest in the right person and can offer a range of training and support.
This role offers the opportunity to make a lasting impact as part of a unique organisation that prides itself on being a supportive employer. At the Diocese of Truro, we value work-life balance and employee wellbeing and are committed to supporting your development. We offer additional benefits such as flexible working, up to 26 days holiday plus bank holidays, a range of wellbeing activities and the Church of England Pension Scheme with 9-15% employer contributions. More information on this here.
The closing date for applications is midnight on 16 March 2026 with interviews being held on 25 March 2026 in Truro.
This role has been made possible with support from a grant from the Church of England.
We welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons. However, we would particularly welcome applications from those with a disability, or from a UK minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented in our staff.
We will be a diocese that reaches out to children, young people, and families. We will be a diocese that is good news for the most disadvantaged.
