Are you passionate about leading and shaping an advice service dedicated to supporting and empowering Disabled people? Do you want to use your expertise to grow a small team into a leading provider of high-quality, accessible advice?
This role would suit someone already working in an advice role seeking career development OR someone with experience managing advice services. We particularly welcome applications from Disabled people with lived experience, in line with our commitment as a Disabled people’s user-led organisation. We also encourage strong non-disabled allies who share our values and dedication to disability justice to apply.
You already believe in the Social Model of Disability and are keen to deepen your understanding. Together, we will grow in how we communicate, make decisions, and approach our work, championing a radically inclusive world where society removes barriers rather than disables people.
You will have in-depth and up-to-date knowledge and recent experience of providing welfare benefits casework, with a willingness to undertake further training in housing and community care. We will consider applicants able to build their base welfare benefits knowledge through intensive training over a short period.
You will carry your own caseload while providing line management, mentoring, and support to one advisor. As the team grows, your caseload will reduce, allowing you to focus more on leadership, service development, and quality assurance.
A key part of the role is leading the organisation’s preparation for the Advice Quality Standard, including the recruitment, training, and support of volunteer advisors, as part of a collaborative team with the CEO and Operations Manager.
You will foster a positive and inclusive team environment where staff and volunteers feel valued and empowered to thrive. You will be proactive in developing the service, preparing information to support funding bids, and thinking creatively about how we meet the needs of Camden’s diverse Disabled community.
The role is advertised as hybrid as some in-person presence in the office will be essential at the Greenwood Centre in London NW5 1LB.
About Camden Disability Action (CDA)
At Camden Disability Action, we believe in a world where no one is disabled by society. As a Disabled people’s user-led organisation, our work is driven by the lived experience of Disabled people and grounded in the Social Model of Disability.
We don’t just support individuals to solve immediate problems; we proactively challenge the systems that create inequality and exclusion.
Our Advice Service is central to this mission. We see advice as more than form filling or casework. It is a powerful tool to support rights, autonomy, and independent living. Through advice, we help Disabled people navigate complex systems, claim their entitlements, and take action. We listen carefully to their experiences to reveal wider societal barriers. This insight helps us influence policy, push for change, and collaborate with partners to make services more inclusive.
We are a medium-sized and growing charity. Our Advice Service is small but ambitious. We currently have one full-time Advisor and deliver a specialist service for d/Deaf people in partnership with deafPLUS. The Advice Manager will lead the development of the service to better reflect and respond to Camden’s diverse disabled communities.

Harris Hill is proud to be partnering with a dynamic and fast-growing international NGO at the forefront of the fight against global waste pollution to recruit their new Director of Programmes. Our client works across low- and middle-income countries to deliver impactful environmental and economic empowerment programmes that promote circular economy solutions, support green entrepreneurship, and improve public health.
The role is offered on a permanent, fully remote basis and is open to candidates based in the UK or EU only, with up to 25% national and international travel required.
As Director of Programmes, you will play a vital strategic role in shaping the future direction and reach of the organisation’s mission. This is a senior leadership role, effectively the number two in the organisation, with significant responsibility for supporting strategic growth and organisational evolution. Reporting to the Chief Executive and joining the Senior Management Team, you will oversee a diverse and growing portfolio of programmes, ensuring their design, funding, and delivery meet the highest standards of impact and quality. With oversight of activity in The Gambia, India, South Africa, and Uganda, your leadership will directly support the organisation’s vision of a world where waste causes no harm and people are empowered to recover its value. This is a rare opportunity to bring your creativity, strategic thinking, and leadership to a small but highly ambitious organisation at the nexus of environmental and development work. You’ll empower a passionate international team, represent our client in high-level forums, and drive the growth of their flagship initiatives.
We are looking for a strategic and entrepreneurial International Development professional with significant experience leading complex programmes in low- and middle-income countries, ideally with a focus on environmental sustainability, waste management, or circular economy approaches. You will bring a strong track record of managing geographically dispersed teams, developing impactful and inclusive programming, and securing funding from a range of donors, including institutional and corporate partners. A confident external representative and relationship-builder, you will be comfortable navigating high-level stakeholder environments, from government and funders to grassroots communities. Operational, strategic, and adaptable, you’ll thrive in a dynamic organisation where hands-on leadership and a solutions-focused mindset are essential. Experience in Sub-Saharan Africa or South Asia, along with a genuine passion for climate justice and community-led development, will be key to success in this role.
To apply, please submit your CV by the 10th of August 2025 at 23:59.
Please note, only successful applicants will be contacted with further information.
