Policy and Communications Manager on Labour Exploitation (maternity cover)

The Latin American Women’s Rights Service (LAWRS) is a human rights, feminist organisation led by and for Latin American migrant women in the UK. Our work is dedicated to supporting the immediate and long-term needs of Latin American migrant women exposed to violations of their fundamental human rights; facing violence against women and girls, exploitation or trafficking; enduring difficult living and working conditions in low paid jobs, and facing barriers to social protection.

The post holder will be primarily responsible for leading the development and implementation of LAWRS’ policy, advocacy and communications strategy to tackle the issues affecting migrant women in the labour market, and will work jointly with LAWRS Employment Rights Adviser and LAWRS Policy and Communications Manager on VAWG, to inform and advance the aims of the Step Up for Migrant Women! Campaign.

The Policy and Communications Manager on Labour Exploitation at LAWRS will be proactive in the development of this work, bringing together expertise and knowledge from stakeholders and key partners from different sectors.
