Contract (three years contract, with possibility of extension, subject to funding)
Job description

the3million is the largest grassroots organisation for EU citizens in the UK, formed after the 2016 referendum to protect the rights of people who have made the UK their home. 

Our work ranges from organising EU citizens’ communities and informing people about their rights, to holding the Government to account on the implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement and advocating for social justice.

We are looking for an experienced and values-driven Community Organiser to lead the delivery of EU Voices, a project aimed at strengthening EU citizens’ communities in the UK through capacity building of civil society organisations (CSOs) and delivering a programme of engagement events and campaigns directly with EU citizens. 

The ideal candidate will be passionate about social justice and migrants’ rights, able to plan, deliver and evaluate community engagement events, while also playing a key role in liaising with CSOs and delivering a programme of capacity building activities, enabling networks to be more effective and strategic in making change happen. The role requires strong experience in community organising, participatory approaches and working with diverse, grassroots-led CSOs.

Key responsibilities

  • Deliver outreach activities at cultural, educational and community events, including stalls promoting the project and voter registration drives.
  • Design and facilitate intercultural dialogue events that build bridges between EU citizens and British residents.
  • Ensure all community engagement activities are inclusive, participatory and grounded in lived experience.
  • Work with the Communications Manager to effectively promote the project in the media and the3million’s website, newsletter and social media as appropriate.

2. Capacity building for CSOs 

  • Lead the delivery of capacity building activities for EU citizens’ organisations, coordinating with fundraising, communications and anti-oppressive practices training providers.
  • Work closely with grassroots CSOs providing one to one guidance and support, including on organising local engagement events.
  • Support CSOs to deliver and implement community organising plans and deliver local outreach and campaigning events.

3. Coordination and project management

  • Act as the main point of contact for the3million within the EU Voices consortium, working closely with the Project Coordinator and partners.
  • Coordinate activities to ensure coherence, timely delivery and alignment with project objectives and indicators.
  • Lead on project planning, internal coordination meetings, and risk management.
  • Support monitoring, evaluation and learning processes, including the collection of qualitative and quantitative data from community activities.

4. Stakeholder engagement 

  • Work with the Head of Policy and Advocacy to ensure community insights and grassroots priorities inform and lead the3million’s advocacy.
  • Support the3million’s policy-focused webinars and engagement with UK and EU decision-makers.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with a wide network of external stakeholders including grassroots community leaders and CSOs. 

5. Reporting and documentation

  • Lead on the3million’s narrative reporting for EU funders, including event reports, progress updates and evidence of impact.
  • Ensure accurate documentation of activities, participant engagement and outcomes in line with EU funding and visibility requirements.
  • Support the production of case studies, testimonials and stories of impact from participating CSOs. 

6. General responsibilities 

  • Represent the views of the3million at events, conferences and in the media, as appropriate.
  • Provide assistance in other areas of the3million’s work as and when deemed necessary by the CEO.

  • Significant experience (minimum 3 years) in community organising, grassroots mobilisation or community development.

  • Strong understanding of participatory, rights-based and inclusive organising approaches.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with experience producing funding reports, ability to write clear emails with compelling calls to action and the confidence to speak in public settings

Personal attributes:

Desirable

  • Experience working on EU-funded projects.

Before you apply

One of the3million’s core values is equity - we are people led, we value diversity and are enriched by differences. We strive to listen to, engage with and represent the broadest range of people. 

We recognise our team is not currently representative of communities that experience racism and that our own ways of working may replicate wider societal oppression and injustices. We are actively working towards becoming an anti-oppressive organisation, including taking steps to create a more inclusive recruitment process.

You may not have worked in an organisation whose focus is campaigning for migrants’ rights. Or you may have experience in a grassroots setting which is not formalised. Please still consider applying as many other settings offer transferable skills.

If you are from a background that is underrepresented in the migration sector - for example you are from a community that experiences racism, or you have lived experience of migration, or you are a disabled person, or you did not go to University or had free school meals as a child - we strongly encourage you to apply.

We believe our work will be stronger with greater diversity. the3million welcomes the whole person to work, and we understand that each of us brings our experiences, our backgrounds and our own unique lens to what we do.

We are part of the Experts by Experience Employment Initiative. The network supports inclusive recruitment of people with lived experience of the UK asylum or immigration system. If this is your experience, you can find useful resources on their website.

Duration: three years contract, with possibility of extension, subject to funding
