Decades of evidence proves that orphanages harm children, subjecting them to high levels of abuse, as well as extreme neglect. Children always belong in families. They need protection, encouragement, play, laughter and love. They need somewhere to call home and someone to love them. You can help us make this a reality for children.

Our vision is to ‘end poverty, together’. Crucial to this vision is the impact of communities of hope, acting together, to serve and strengthen society, equipping people, churches and other faiths and community groups to make a difference where they live.

This work will oversee our portfolio of existing community resilience work: Near Neighbours programme (focused on interfaith engagement and local partnership), the Catalyst programme for diverse young leaders, our network of nearly 1,000 Places of Welcome venues. and the Windrush Day grant scheme.  But it will also allow scope for the development of new projects and programmes that help build community resilience, understanding and cohesion in the rapidly changing context of modern-day Britain.

To help us achieve our vision, we are looking for a Head of Community Resilience who is passionate about ending social division and will encourage hope at the centre of the places we live.  We are looking for someone who is skilled in building meaningful partnerships, as we know CUF cannot do this work alone.  Someone who has experience of working with a range of stakeholders and understanding the political landscape and sensitivity around communities.  This role sits at the intersection of faith-based community action, cohesion and inclusion, and inter faith work, addressing the social fractures of a changing Britain with care and credibility.

If you feel that this role could be for you, we would love to hear from you.
