About The Skill Mill
The Skill Mill is a multi-award-winning social enterprise providing employment opportunities for young people aged 16–18 involved in the criminal justice system. We deliver environmental and community improvement projects that build skills, improve life chances, and reduce reoffending.
Young people aged 16-18 will be employed by The Skill Mill for 6-months, working in small cohorts of four, under the direct supervision of a dedicated Supervisor. During this period, the programme integrates practical skills training, offering short courses and on-the-job instruction in areas like environmental management, construction, and recycling, using tools such as trimmers and lawnmowers. The goal is for participants to achieve recognized qualifications like the CSCS card and an AQA Level 2 qualification, all while receiving comprehensive support, in collaboration with youth offending services.
Following the six-month employment phase, young people receive three months of dedicated support designed to facilitate their transition into new employment, training, or educational opportunities. This support includes individualised assistance with career development and job progression, practical aid such as creating action plans, crafting CVs, and practicing interview skills.

Support for young people from the Pathway Advisor will begin in the 6-month employment phase, with liaison with the young person, Supervisors and Commercial Sales Manager, to begin to build relationships, understand aspirations and identify potential opportunities.
After the 6-month employment phase, key support will transition from the Supervisor to the Pathway Advisor role, with 3-months of person-led support offered to prepare for, enter, and sustain further employment, training, or educational opportunities.

The Church of England is a partner in the Nature in Sacred Places (NiSP) National Lottery Heritage Fund project. This is a £5.2m project with an 18-month development phase followed by a four-year delivery phase (subject to securing further funding), in partnership with Natural England, the Church of England, Churches Conservation Trust and Caring for God's Acre. NiSP will build on principles established by the Bats in Churches Project, a project supported by the Heritage Fund. which worked with churches, community volunteers, young people and professionals across three main strands:
Broadening engagement
Reach a wide group of people, including religious groups and underserved communities, increasing diversity, inclusion and enjoyment of natural and cultural heritage through engagement events. We will champion the message that England's natural and built heritage in sacred places is for everyone, and work with communities to improve access in respect of multiple needs. The partnership will engage new audiences with local wildlife and greenspace.
Supporting practical action
Work with c.150 sacred places, primarily churchyards, (selected for heritage value, wildlife impact, community engagement and capacity) to develop biodiversity and cultural heritage. NiSP staff and partners will deliver workshops to communities to empower and upskill volunteers to maintain, enhance and develop biodiversity and protect the built heritage in their own sacred places into the future. We will produce guidance so communities have a reliable reference manual for long term use. Through these training sessions and reference materials, communities will be able to develop and deliver their own Conservation Management Plans independently. Small-scale funding (<£1000 per group) will be available for communities to undertake modest but effective heritage and habitat management, purchase engagement event resources, and improve access to the building and associated outdoor area.
Building professional capacity
NiSP will share knowledge, produce guidance, and run best practice activities to lead to better outcomes for both wildlife and buildings in renovation/restoration projects. We will work with pupils in Key Stages 1-4, study-leavers, and undergraduate training schemes, and will explore the creation of apprenticeship opportunities with established professionals and/or programmes. We will deliver seminars and webinars to professionals in both architecture and ecology, provide training from accredited experts and opportunities for participants to share knowledge and insight with each other.
The development phase will work with churches nationwide with a focus on four pilot areas - Birmingham, Hereford, Rotherham and Sheffield.
The Communications Officer will communicate the 18 month development phase of NiSP to churches, communities and dioceses promote the 18 month development phase of NiSP to a national audience through social, digital and print media, talks, activities and events.
You will share the stories and successes of NiSP and inspire people of all ages and abilities to get involved in local NiSP events and activities.
You will be employed by the Church of England but will work in a team of staff employed by project partner organisations, and managed by the Natural England Project Manager.
The Church of England’s vocation is and always has been to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ afresh in each generation to the people of England.

Alongside nurturing existing supporters, you will identify and secure new funding opportunities, building a strong and sustainable pipeline of donors and driving forward this new area of income generation within the team. Working collaboratively across SHP, you will connect philanthropists with our services in a way that feels personal, impactful and rooted in the realities of our work, while contributing to the wider fundraising targets that enable us to keep delivering life changing support.
Hybrid working for us means a mix of in office working in Kings Cross and home working. Currently two days in the office (usually Wednesday and Friday) with the rest from home.
About you:

In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up.
We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own.
Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.
