Our team in Camden has an exciting new opportunity for a Women Specialist Advocate to join the WiSER project, based in Camden. You will join us on a fixed term basis until the end of March 2025 (with the possibility of extension subject to ongoing funding.)
The WiSER Project is a partnership of specialist charities working together to provide support and advocacy for women whose experiences of violence and abuse intersect with multiple and severe disadvantage. We work with women who are frequently excluded from mainstream services and/or find it hard to engage with support, which increases their vulnerability and risk. Our assertive outreach approach enables women to access support, increase their self-esteem, and make safe choices.
About the Women Specialist Advocate role:
We are looking for an experienced, dynamic Specialist Advocate to join our advocacy and support team in Camden, with a specific remit to reach and support women facing multiple disadvantage. You will work intensively with a small caseload of women as part of a multidisciplinary team, collaborating extensively with external agencies.
You will be able to demonstrate knowledge of the intersection between severe and multiple disadvantage and Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) and have a strong understanding of how this can make it difficult for women to engage with support. You will have worked with people experiencing various aspects of severe and multiple disadvantage: homelessness, substance use, mental health issues, insecure immigration status, prostitution, offending history and children taken in to care. Most importantly, you will be committed to improving services and life chances for women affected by VAWG who are experiencing severe and multiple disadvantage.
Please note: This service is run by women for women and is therefore restricted to women applicants under the Equality Act 2010, Schedule 9, Part 1. The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act.
About you:
- An excellent understanding of the issues faced by women survivors of VAWG, including a knowledge of options for and rights of women experiencing all forms of VAWG.
- The ability to take a resilient and assertive approach to reaching out to and building trust and positive relationships with women who are experiencing multiple disadvantage, and who may present as reluctant to engage and/or may be presenting in crisis.
- Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to engage with a wide range of professionals (some of whom may have very different approaches to problem solving) through a multi-agency approach, and advocate to agencies on behalf of the Project and its service users.
- A demonstrable commitment to providing a non-judgemental, non-directive and empowering approach to supporting women.
- A high level of personal organisation with the ability to plan and prioritise your own work.

This is TLC’s first Major Donor role. Over the past few years our organisation’s size and reach has grown considerably.

You’ll be comfortable delivering against ambitious (though realistic!) targets and we will incentivise exceptional performance.
You will work closely with our Director of Development and our wider Development and Marketing teams.
We’re particularly looking to diversify our leadership and management teams across TLC with people from global majority ethnicities, as we know we are under-represented in this area.
About us
TLC: Talk, Listen, Change is a relationships charity that has been providing support to individuals, couples, families, and communities in the North of England for over 40 years. The charity focuses on promoting emotional wellbeing through the cultivation of safe, healthy, and happy relationships.

We offer a range of services tailored to meet the diverse relationship challenges faced by the community. Our commitment to evolving our services ensures we continue to meet the growing needs of those we serve.
We value safe, healthy, and happy relationships both within the workplace and beyond, emphasising a culture that is safe, authentic, and person-centred, reflecting our commitment to valuing staff as much as the people we support. Our organisation takes pride in being progressive and inclusive. We have made specific commitments to staff well-being and inclusivity, such as the Age-Friendly Employer Pledge, supporting Afro-hairstyles through the Halo Code, and endorsing the White Ribbon campaign to end men’s violence against women. These initiatives support work to build an equitable and respectful work environment.
We aim to encourage a culture where people can be themselves and be valued for their strengths. We seek to attract and employ the best people from the widest pool, reflecting the diverse range of people we support.
We also believe in empowering our team members to bring their best to their work. That’s why we offer flexible working hours around core business times. We also provide an annual Professional Development allowance, a generous annual leave package, and even time off for your birthday, Health and Wellbeing Day and EDI-focused Volunteering Day.
We want to make our recruitment processes accessible to everyone. As standard practice we provide interview questions prior to the interview so we can concentrate on getting to know you. If there is any way that we can support you to be the best you can be, please contact us.
