Are you passionate about leading and shaping an advice service dedicated to supporting and empowering Disabled people? Do you want to use your expertise to grow a small team into a leading provider of high-quality, accessible advice?

This role would suit someone already working in an advice role seeking career development OR someone with experience managing advice services. We particularly welcome applications from Disabled people with lived experience, in line with our commitment as a Disabled people’s user-led organisation. We also encourage strong non-disabled allies who share our values and dedication to disability justice to apply.

You already believe in the Social Model of Disability and are keen to deepen your understanding. Together, we will grow in how we communicate, make decisions, and approach our work, championing a radically inclusive world where society removes barriers rather than disables people.

You will have in-depth and up-to-date knowledge and recent experience of providing welfare benefits casework, with a willingness to undertake further training in housing and community care. We will consider applicants able to build their base welfare benefits knowledge through intensive training over a short period.

You will carry your own caseload while providing line management, mentoring, and support to one advisor. As the team grows, your caseload will reduce, allowing you to focus more on leadership, service development, and quality assurance.

A key part of the role is leading the organisation’s preparation for the Advice Quality Standard, including the recruitment, training, and support of volunteer advisors, as part of a collaborative team with the CEO and Operations Manager.

You will foster a positive and inclusive team environment where staff and volunteers feel valued and empowered to thrive. You will be proactive in developing the service, preparing information to support funding bids, and thinking creatively about how we meet the needs of Camden’s diverse Disabled community.

The role is advertised as hybrid as some in-person presence in the office will be essential at the Greenwood Centre in London NW5 1LB.

About Camden Disability Action (CDA)

At Camden Disability Action, we believe in a world where no one is disabled by society. As a Disabled people’s user-led organisation, our work is driven by the lived experience of Disabled people and grounded in the Social Model of Disability.

We don’t just support individuals to solve immediate problems; we proactively challenge the systems that create inequality and exclusion.

Our Advice Service is central to this mission. We see advice as more than form filling or casework. It is a powerful tool to support rights, autonomy, and independent living. Through advice, we help Disabled people navigate complex systems, claim their entitlements, and take action. We listen carefully to their experiences to reveal wider societal barriers. This insight helps us influence policy, push for change, and collaborate with partners to make services more inclusive.

We are a medium-sized and growing charity. Our Advice Service is small but ambitious. We currently have one full-time Advisor and deliver a specialist service for d/Deaf people in partnership with deafPLUS. The Advice Manager will lead the development of the service to better reflect and respond to Camden’s diverse disabled communities.

Salary: £24,570.00 per annum pro-rated

Location: Faversham, Shelter Shop

Contract: Permanent

Hours: Part time, 22.5 per week

Closing date: Tuesday the 5th of August at 11:30pm

We're looking for an inspirational people person to join us as a Assistant Shop Manager in our Faversham shop. This is an exciting opportunity, and we'd like you to join us to help raise vital funds for homeless and badly housed people.

You will work closely with the Shop Manager to ensure the shop looks welcoming, visually appealing and the team of volunteers are motivated and keen to engage with customers and maximise sales.

About the role

You will assist the Shop Manager in the recruitment, support and development of a strong community focused shop team and empower them to maximise Shelter's income. Representing Shelter in your local community, ensuring that you and your team share your knowledge of Shelter's cause with customers, volunteers, donors and potential Shelter clients will also be important aspects of the role. You will always ensure a safe, clean, bright and happy environment for your team to work in and for your customers to shop in, in turn attracting potential donors and volunteers.

About you

You are a naturally energetic person with an enthusiasm for managing and empowering people. You know how to recruit and develop a team of volunteers, and your extraordinary motivational skills will enable you to inspire your team to increase sales and control costs. Above all, you are ready to take on a new challenge and have a keen interest in Shelter's cause.

Apply to be part of our team and be the change you want to see in society.

Benefits 

We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

About Shelter

Home is a human right. It’s our foundation and where we thrive. Yet everyday millions of people are being devastated by the housing emergency.

We exist to defend the right to a safe home. Because home is everything,

We need ambitious, passionate people to join us. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. To win this fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, equitable and transparent. We are committed to combating racism both within and outside Shelter. We welcome you on our journey to becoming truly anti-racist.

Safeguarding statement

Safeguarding is everyone's business. Shelter is committed to protecting the health, wellbeing and human rights of those we support, and enabling them to live free from harm, abuse and neglect. All our staff will be expected to observe professional standards of behaviour and conduct their work in line with our Safeguarding Policies.

Shelter does not accept unsolicited CVs from external recruitment agencies nor accept the fees associated with them.

Are you a strategic campaigner with a passion for education, global justice and early childhood development? Harris Hill is delighted to be recruiting for a Campaign Communications Manager on behalf of an innovative and fast-growing global children’s charity, leading the charge in tackling the global education crisis through bold campaigning and creative communications.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a collaborative, values-led organisation that’s spearheading a major global campaign to improve outcomes for the youngest children – combining high-profile advocacy, celebrity support, and policy influence to drive real change.

This newly created role will sit within a high-performing Campaign and Communications team, supporting the third year of a major global initiative focused on early years education. You’ll be the campaign communications lead – responsible for managing strategy, storytelling, and digital mobilisation efforts that engage partners, decision-makers and the wider public.

I’m looking for someone with:

• Proven skills in digital campaigning and content coordination
• Experience managing partner communications or mobilisation
• Excellent writing, organisational and project management skills
• Strong interpersonal confidence with internal and external stakeholders
• A ‘can-do’ attitude and collaborative, problem-solving mindset

Why This Role Stands Out:

This is not your average charity job. This organisation offers a genuinely progressive working environment with a 4-day working week (Monday to Thursday) and hybrid flexibility, making it a fantastic opportunity for a skilled campaigner who values impact, innovation and work-life balance. There is also the opportunity to travel to international events.

• Permanent
• 4 day working week (Monday-Thursday)
• 1 day in the London office, (near Liverpool street), 3 days working from home.
• Salary £40,000
