The Role

HOST seeks a qualified solicitor to establish and lead its internal legal function. The role requires expertise in UK contract and charity law, applied in an international nonprofit context. The primary jurisdiction will be England and Wales; however, given HOST’s global operations, familiarity with or awareness of the legal systems in the Netherlands, Singapore, and India would be advantageous.

This role combines hands-on legal review with systems design, risk oversight, and practical guidance for non-legal teams, working closely with the Executive Director and Operations leadership. As this is a newly created position, the scope and priorities of the role will naturally evolve over time in discussion with the Legal Circle. We recognise that establishing effective legal processes, procedures, and documentation will take time, and we value a thoughtful, iterative approach to building the function well.

This is a part-time role (approximately [2–3 days per week / 0.4–0.6 FTE], to be agreed).

Due Diligence & Risk
Assess higher-risk matters (e.g. sanctions, safeguarding, governance, employment, data protection).
Align legal processes with Finance and Operations.
Maintain clear and proportionate risk records.

Legal Systems & Governance
Develop and maintain key policies and template documents.
Embed appropriate legal workflows across the organisation.
Support governance and compliance improvements.

Scope

Will Do:
Lead legal review, maintain templates and policies, deliver accessible legal guidance, oversee a structured and transparent legal workflow, and coordinate external legal support where appropriate.

Will Not Do:
Lead commercial negotiations, manage operational delivery, approve retrospective decisions, or act outside the legal remit of the role.

Support & Resources

You will have access to appropriate online legal research tools and resources, subject to discussion regarding organisational needs and associated costs.

HOST will support Continuing Professional Development (CPD), with scope and funding agreed based on identified needs and budget.

HOST will cover the cost of the annual practising certificate (currently approximately £300–£400 per year).

About You

Requirements:
Practising solicitor in England & Wales, authorised to work in-house.

Skills:
Strong grounding in UK contract and charity law.
Experience drafting and interpreting agreements.
Ability to communicate legal advice clearly and pragmatically to non-legal colleagues.

Desirable:
Experience in data protection, employment law, sanctions, international law, or risk and compliance frameworks.
Previous in-house experience.
Experience working effectively in remote-first or distributed organisations.

Personal Qualities:
Collaborative, pragmatic, solutions-focused, mission-aligned, and confident guiding non-legal teams through complex issues.

Success Measures
Legal intake is consistent, auditable, and predictable.
Templates and policies are clear, compliant, and trusted by teams.
Advice is privileged, proportionate, regulatory-aligned, and enables partners to operate confidently.

We are an international nonprofit with administrative hubs in California, Washington DC, London, and Paris. Our teams represent a wide mix of backgrounds, identities, cultures, and lived experiences. We actively foster an environment rooted in dignity, belonging, justice, and flexibility.

About the Role

We are seeking a high-performing, experienced, and self-directed compliance professional to provide maternity cover within the Grants, Contracts & Compliance (GCC) department.

This role requires someone who operates with excellence, independence, and sound judgement from day one—a person who is confident navigating complex donor rules, shaping risk‑mitigation strategies, and leading award management processes without needing extensive onboarding. We are seeking an experienced practitioner with proven applied experience, rather than a purely theoretical background.

You will oversee the full lifecycle of European donor‑funded awards, ensuring rigorous contractual and regulatory compliance across Internews. Working closely with colleagues across Programmes, Finance, and Global Development, you will help maintain a culture where doing things right is prioritised over shortcuts.

The ideal candidate brings deep expertise with major European donors (European Commission, Sida, FCDO), a proactive mindset, and the ability to lead, train, and influence teams across the organisation.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES include the following, with other duties upon request: 

Compliance

· Review and approve proposal budgets for assigned funding opportunities.

· Review donor agreements and ensure terms are acceptable; support the Director of GCC in strengthening organisational risk‑mitigation practices.

· Advise staff on Internews’ internal and donor rules across the project cycle.

· Work with Programme Officers and cross-functional teams on effective project start‑up, including inductions, adapting award procedures/templates, and ongoing staff training; conduct country visits when required.

· Collaborate with Finance to support successful programme audits.

· Maintain and update organisational data on institutional donor platforms (e.g., EU Transparency Register, IATI).

· Develop and maintain training materials and guidelines for at least one major donor; provide expert compliance guidance across GCC.

· Deliver inductions and training for new and junior GCC staff.

· Set up and maintain complete and up‑to‑date award records in line with donor and Internews requirements.

Development

· At proposal stage, review and approve teaming agreements and NDAs with bid partners.

· Review and approve donor budget submissions, ensuring accuracy, consistency, compliance, and adequacy.

About Working Well Trust

Working Well Trust is a mental health and employment charity in London. All of our projects share the aim of improving the lives of people with mental health support needs, learning disabilities and/or complex issues through training and employment.

We are recruiting a Data Administrator to provide high-quality client contact, data management and performance reporting for our Connect to Work service in Enfield borough.

This role plays a central part in ensuring the service runs smoothly and meets contractual requirements. You will act as a first point of contact for new referrals, while also leading on accurate data entry, reporting and insight to support service delivery and continuous improvement.

The role is ideal for someone who enjoys combining people-facing work with structured, detail-focused data and administrative responsibilities, and who is motivated by supporting people to move towards employment.

What you’ll be doing

If you were working with us, you would be at the heart of how our Connect to Work service demonstrates impact, quality and compliance.

You would take ownership of data management for the Enfield Connect to Work contract. That means ensuring accurate and timely data entry across multiple systems, including DWP PRaP, always in line with GDPR and contractual requirements. You would maintain high-quality client records and digital filing systems, proactively spotting and resolving data integrity issues before they become problems.

You would turn data into insight. Using the DWP dashboard, Excel tools and performance dashboards, you would collate, analyse and interpret service activity and outcomes. You would produce clear, concise KPI and performance reports for commissioners, senior managers and operational teams. Your analysis would help identify trends, risks and opportunities to improve performance and strengthen employment outcomes for participants.

You would also lead on audit preparation and ensure our reporting meets IPS and Fidelity standards. When a new CRM is introduced by the funder, you would support a smooth transition, provide feedback to developers and help embed the system within the team.

Alongside data responsibilities, you would play a key role in referrals. You would act as a first point of contact for new participants, undertaking eligibility assessments using a structured questionnaire. You would confidently and sensitively gather information relating to employment, mental health and physical health needs, and provide clear information about the service and next steps. Where risks or safeguarding concerns arise, you would escalate appropriately and in line with service protocols.

You would handle general enquiries from participants and stakeholders, signposting where Connect to Work is not the right provision. You would liaise with Local London regarding referral submissions and ensure tracking systems are up to date.

Internally, you would support frontline colleagues by providing training and guidance on data entry and performance recording requirements. You would help create simple, robust systems so advisers can focus on supporting participants into work.

In short, you would combine strong technical data skills with excellent communication and a genuine commitment to quality. Your work would ensure that our service is compliant, insightful and continuously improving.
