Internal Job Title: Sanctuary Support Coordinator
Hours: 35 hours per week (full time).
Location: Home-based focussed around Cardiff and Newport, with regular travel across Wales and occasional travel to England.
Contract: Currently funded until December 2028.

About us
Housing Justice unites diverse communities to build personal connections, help people out of homelessness, and create justice in the housing system. Our vision is of a community where everyone has a safe and stable home, and a feeling they belong.
Our Seeking Sanctuary project is a Wales-based initiative delivering innovative housing solutions and community-led support for people seeking sanctuary. We combine community hosting, tenancy-based housing, and advocacy to help build a Nation of Sanctuary.
About the role
Reporting directly to the Sanctuary Manager, you will be responsible for the day-to-day delivery of our accommodation pathways, ensuring the best possible outcomes for destitute migrants and newly granted refugees.
This is a dynamic, frontline casework role that spans three core areas of our housing provision:
-
The Hosting Project: Supporting people seeking sanctuary who have no recourse to public funds by giving them a welcoming, safe place to stay in the home of one of our volunteer hosts.
-
Refugee Lodgings: Helping to provide a safe and supported housing option for newly granted refugees at risk of homelessness by matching them with people who have a spare room.
-
Transitional Housing: Providing vital tenancy sustainment support for newly granted refugees transitioning into our shared accommodation properties.
About you
We are seeking a dedicated, highly organised, and empathetic professional with proven experience working directly with people experiencing homelessness, particularly asylum seekers and forced migrants.
You will have a strong working knowledge of the housing system, the UK welfare system (including Universal Credit and Housing Benefit), and how to support people to access their entitlements. Because this role requires managing complex casework and navigating cultural nuances, you must possess strong interpersonal skills, particularly when working with vulnerable people or those with English as a second language.
If you are a creative problem-solver who is passionate about empowering refugees and building sustainable housing pathways, we want to hear from you.
Benefits
-
29 days annual leave, 3 of which are fixed between Christmas and New Year.
-
This is in addition to bank holidays and pro-rata if part time.
-
After 3 years of service, you are entitled to one additional day of holiday for each additional year of service, up to a maximum of 5 additional days, pro-rata if part time.
-
We offer flexible working. Not all posts can be made flexible, but where possible we operate core hours of 10am - 3pm, with employees able to flex their working day around these.
-
Any flexibility is at the discretion of the line manager and relevant senior manager.
-
As this role is offered as Home Working, we will provide some financial support to get you set up with appropriate equipment.
-
We offer an employee assistance programme through Spectrum Life, which can be used by you and your family for a range of advice and support.
-
We offer a cycle-to-work scheme.

Join our Marketing & Communications team and help churches reveal Jesus to the next generation. We’re growing – and we’re looking to fill two exciting roles to help build on the progress already under way and take our impact up a gear. Both roles sit right at the heart of how Scripture Union communicates: sharing stories of impact, creating connection and helping more people engage, pray and take their next step with us. If you enjoy producing great work and making it matter, you’ll love the mix – strengthening the relationships we already have, while helping us connect with new audiences across England and Wales
About Scripture Union
Scripture Union is a national mission-movement, helping churches reveal Jesus to the next generation. We equip churches to reach children and young people – especially those outside the church – wherever they are, and in ways that truly connect. Because every young person should have the opportunity to discover Jesus, and too many never will. Through Bible-based resources, practical training and our Revealing Jesus mission framework, we help churches build relationships that lead to faith. Our team of Mission Enablers supports a growing network of Faith Guides – local people, rooted in their communities, revealing Jesus in everyday life.
About the roles
These two roles are all about helping Scripture Union communicate with clarity, creativity and purpose. One focuses on shaping our digital content and website experience (a big opportunity as we seek to overhaul our web presence); the other brings our story to life through events and communications that helps people connect with what God is doing through SU. If you like work that’s practical, people-focused and makes a real difference, you’ll feel right at home.
Web and Digital Content Officer
(Salary £31,100 - £32,900 - Full Time)

Events and Communications Officer
(Salary £21,460 - £22,700 - Part Time 25 Hours a week)

Who We're Looking For: Our Ideal Candidates
For both roles, we’re looking for strong candidates who can blend creativity with strategy – confident specialists who bring experience, initiative and craft. But just as importantly, we want team-players: the sort who happily roll up their sleeves, jump in where needed, and strengthen others, so we move further, faster, together – across the Marketing & Communications team and the wider SU movement. If you love using your skills to build something that matters, you’ll thrive here: helping us sharpen our story, widen our reach with churches across England and Wales, and ultimately create more opportunities for children and young people to discover Jesus.

Web and Digital Content Officer

Events and Communications Officer
· Experience planning, coordinating and delivering events or exhibitions with clear objectives and measurable outcomes.
· Proven ability to identify, gather and develop authentic, people-focused stories.
· Strong writing skills and experience creating content across web, social media and email (and ideally audio/print too).
